    if it’s anything, there’s a case to be made that Hitler was often a hindrance to the Nazi party efforts and if he got taken out then he might have been replaced by someone more competent and effective.

    I’ve heard many tales of this mythical “more competent and effective” fascist and to them I say “have you met a fascist?”

      Fascists are extremely rational and effective and it’s why communism lost in the 21st century and the USSR collapsed. It’s why 20+ million soviet citizens were killed. Fascists fulfill their role very well, to crush the left and stabilize and reset bourgeois capitalist systems.

      Fascists only seem stupid and incompetent if you listen to what they say literally and take them at their words. The things they say are absurd, but they are distractions and tools to further their aims - which they almost always achieve. Don’t underestimate the right.
