Re: Help me defeat Hitler...
Everyone knows that you can't learn about genocide and totalitarian horror without dressing up like a goddamned SS guard. I'm assuming they made some people dress like concentration camp prisoners to complete the educational experience. Jesus Christ, Spiff, does Walter Mondale know about this?You're not there because you believe in what Hitler stood for -- you're there to educate people about history, and a lot of that is so people don't forget.

Re: Help me defeat Hitler...
Given that this is the only Hitler-dedicated thread here (and, I venture to say, the best on the Internet outside of Stormfront), I'll throw out a request. I'm hoping by fall or early winter to start on my next research project. I'm interested in the cultural significance of the myth of Hitler surviving the end of the war, whether ending up in Argentina or a head in a jar or a massive robot, but somehow escaping justice and living on to plague mankind. This isn't about whether he actually faked his own death (spoiler: he didn't), but why this possibility has endured as a premise or facet of postwar entertainment (tho in the dozen or so years after the war, it was less entertainment and more dread). If any of you know some good examples, I'd appreciate you offering up titles of books and movies, fiction and non-, with that premise that I can look at later on this year.

Re: Help me defeat Hitler...
The Iron Dream by Norman Spinrad, or the anthology, Hitler Victorious, might be a good start.

Longish piece on whether Hitler was being slowly poisoned by a quack treating him for flatulence.

...that he froze out his inner circle for the Doctor, even though he knew it was slowly killing him...
...allowing him to isolate the Führer further from competent medical care...
...and up the dose of poison...
...destabilizing Hitler to the point where his clouded, addled mind dramatically hastened both Germany's and his own's collapse:

. . .thus defeating Hitler, winning the war for the Allies, and causing Wolter's head to do this:

All of which raises the question: if Eva Braun had been a ginger, would that have provided Adolph with the necessary protection and we'd all be (literally) singing from the Rammstein hymn book? Is this dystopian or utopian?

Re: Help me defeat Hitler...
Rochus Misch claims he saw both the bodies of Adolf and Eva moments after they killed themselves on April 30, 1945.
Mind he also thinks Wire are punk rock and claims to have a copy of the London SS tape.

One more year and this thread officially enters M.A.S.H. territory lasting longer than the War Over Punching Hitler itself.

But what if Hitler survived? Then his availability for punchacating gets extended. Thank you, tinfoil hats!Rat Patrol wrote:One more year and this thread officially enters M.A.S.H. territory lasting longer than the War Over Punching Hitler itself.
