    Counter-point: Hitler’s vitriolic Nazism showed the world what ethnofascism ultimately leads to, and was the catalyst for the much needed reforms of the sixties and seventies. We would all be living under (a much harsher) fascism today if WW2 hadn’t happened.

      Also the reason he was such a loser is because the guy was an actual real loser and so were basically all of the high ranking Nazis! They didn’t join some psycho not popular at the time political movement/co-op said movement because they were well adjusted, well liked, successful and happy men, they were literally just assholes and losers who made their own club up to punish everyone they blamed their problems on because they were so unwilling to accept they were actually the problem in their own lives. He wouldn’t have been successful on this path because he was a failed person not just a failed artist.

        Is that one of those “if Hitler escaped to your country and disguised himself, could you spot him?” kind of images?

    Compare to:

    The book’s frame narrative and premise is that “after dabbling in radical politics,” Adolf Hitler emigrated to the United States in 1919 and became a science fiction illustrator, editor, and author. He wrote his final science fantasy novel Lord of the Swastika in six weeks in 1953, shortly before dying of a cerebral hemorrhage[1]: 245  perhaps caused by tertiary syphilis; Lord of the Swastika subsequently won the Hugo Award and the “colorful uniforms” described therein became staples of science fiction conventions.

        Makes me afraid of how many aspiring artists will go into other career paths…
