in all honesty there's probably millions of people as bad as or worse than hitler they just don't have the ability to enact their evil in the way he did
could be one of us
my mom had a book called "the enyclopedia of crime" on our bookshelf in my childhood with two pages dedicated to him. s*** used to give me nightmares
That’s a pretty cool find/memory tbh do your mom and you bond over investigative murder p***/true crimes and the like?
My bookshelf was filled with actual encyclopedias to make us look like we read, knowing damn well we didn’t lmao
Many many many worse people than hitler.
King Leopold quite literally committed genocide for profit
Inventer of MDMA (forgot his name) wanted to institute a non concesensual sterilization program in South Africa. He did a s***load of other things too
Current leader of Syria regularly drops barrel bombs on hospitals
Nestle as a corperation has probably done more long term harm than hitler.
Sacklers knew about the addictiveness of opiods, lied to doctors about it, then proceeded to profit billions off americas genocide.
Columbus killed 2 million natives with slavery and diseases. Cortez killed 30 million with just diseases and guns.
As a follow-up to this. The reason Hitler is called the worst man in history was that there wasn't a rational reasoning behind his actions. It was pure discrimination for the sake of propoganda that he started to beileve. He also convinced an entire country that what he did was reasonable.
In terms of pure damage to the world, hes top 5, but its more about the lack of rational and his massive support and control thats worse.

He wasn’t really insane though, just evil. It’s the same thought driving much of human violence in general. He sought to depopulate Eastern Europe so Germans could replace the native populations and use the land and resources to further enrich themselves. He identified Jewish people with the higher class in communist and western countries, and decided to eliminate them because they would be a threat to his plan

Irrational /=/ insane. His beliefs was unfounded, but enforced by local stereotypes. Combine this with his populist goals and he has a reasoning, its just unfounded in reality
