Today is Adolf Hitler's birthday.
Regardless of what we in the West have been taught to believe about this man, fact or fiction, he is a genuinely fascinating historical figure. He cared deeply about people & animals, he struggled with & exceeded all barriers in his life, he brought his nation to the apex of human achievement, and gave his life for it. That can not be taken away from him, despite any post-war historical propaganda narrative. History is written by the winners. And the winners say we're all "nazis" for wanting a sane country without the same degeneracy Hitler fought against 100 years ago. There's a lesson there.
Adolf Hitler was not the devil incarnate. He was just a man. A man who had thoughts, dreams, fears, and insecurities.
A man who loved. This could be you or me. It might just be.
