Was Adolf Hitler a bad man?

He killed 55 Million people. But what does that prove? How do we know that that's bad?

Human beings have agreed with each other that killing another person is a bad thing to do, but how do we know? What if we're wrong?

How many people are willing to consider the possibility, that maybe what Hitler did was right?

Wow, Godwin's law in the first post!

I'm sorry, I think modern most cultures accept that killing people is bad, and that genocide is even more so. Cultural relativism only goes so far, you know.

If it makes you feel better, you could just think of him as insane.

Oh, you don't need to make me feel better. I'm fine with what he did. I'm not that disturbed by it. So it happened... what can you do? Accept it.

On the internet nobody knows you're a Nazi-sympathizer. Until you post.

There was an unwritten rule at AI that as soon as a post mentioned Nazis or Hitler that the thread was locked.

This thread is toast. If you want to promote racism, bigotry, etc. by justifying mass genocide, you're not going to be welcome here any longer.

The quality of this board depends on the quality of the posts. The only way to guarantee thoughtful, informative discussion is to write thoughtful, informative posts. AppleNova is not a real-time chat forum. You have time to compose messages and edit them before and after posting.
