It's never "give Hitler a good life where he is never taught or led to be a prejudice psychopathic murderer."

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I mean I get the whole post isn't super serious but for real, I doubt that getting rid of Hitler-Hitler would have stopped the rise of fascism and nazis. There would have just been another leader who might have caused even greater damage.

I always think more about the technological leaps made because of the war. We might not have gone to space if nobody made rockets as weapons.

I think often such things merely accelerate the time line. I'm pretty sure the urge to go look at the big shiny thing in the sky has been with us a looong time. We would have gotten there eventually one way or another.

It would also probably go even faster if we just stopped requiring things to be """economical""" to get research.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

That's sadly a very good point. I work in the biomedical sphere and it is an uncomfortable topic that a lot of our knowledge would not exist without the horrible experiments done on people during the second world war.

Or fascism may become the new trend in democracy because it didn't get associated with genocide...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

you imply this isn't what's currently happening anyways

[–] suspecm 1 points 1 year ago

We would have gotten a communist germany. The first big enemy Hitler and his nazi party had to defeat were the communists who were operating similar death gangs to their gestapo.

What about get Hitler art lessons at a young age or don't let him try art at all

[–] AeonFelis 3 points 1 year ago

Traumatize Hilter to make him hate art.

[–] aidan 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Imo, his art wasn't bad. But yeah. I think maybe just don't let him join the army

[–] o0joshua0o 6 points 1 year ago

I agree it wasn't bad. Bribe the art school to let him in, and his career path changes completely.

i mean, who has that kind of time?
