Adolf Hitler: Difference between revisions

Line 67:

* [[All There in the Manual]]: ''[[Doorstopper|Mein Kampf]]'' was long, boring, poorly-written... and spelled out all of Hitler's future goals in unmistakable clarity, more than a decade before he had the chance to do any of them. Unfortunately, [[Cassandra Truth|nobody paid any attention until it was too late]].

* [[Arch Enemy]]: Communism and "international Jewry", depending on his mood. Often combined the two in the guise of "Judeo-Bolshevism" for maximum fun.

* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: He killed millions, ~~had~~ a demonic ~~hatred~~ of Jews, tried to [[Take Over the World]], and [[Never Live It Down|had a silly mustache.]]

* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: He killed millions, hatred of quite a few groups with it reaching demonic levels towards Jews, tried to [[Take Over the World]], and [[Never Live It Down|had a silly mustache.]]

* [[Asexuality]]: Some documentaries state that in the years that he was with Eva Braun, the housekeepers never saw any signs of sexual intercourse in either of their beds. Although some historians have come up with [[Armoured Closet Gay|different]] [[Depraved Homosexual|interpretations]] regarding this. Distressingly, some have also used these theories in [[Hitler Ate Sugar]] arguments against non-heterosexuals, [[Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment|so please take care when bringing them up]]. He did once say "[[Married to the Job|I am married to Germany]]." He also once said that he ''[[I Am the Trope|was]]'' Germany.

** However, he ''did'' share a passionate and very public kiss with Eva Braun when she refused to leave Berlin and chose to die at his side, which is well-attested to by multiple eyewitnesses.

Line 78:

* [[Big Badass Wolf]]: He seemed to have had an affinity of some sort for wolves. His first name derives from ''Athalwolf'', Old High German for (as stated above) "noble wolf", and for this reason "Wolf" [[Card-Carrying Villain|became his childhood nickname]]. He later used it as a pseudonym for himself in the 1920s, ostensibly for security reasons. When his sister Paula Hitler asked him for financial support around 1930 (she was fired from her job in Vienna when her employers found out who her brother was) he granted her request, but insisted that she go under the assumed name "Paula Wolf" from then on. Some of his military headquarters were named ''Wolfsschanze'' ("wolf's lair"), ''Wolfsschlucht'' ("wolf's chasm"), and ''Wehrwolf'' (lit. "defense wolf", probably a play on words with ''Werwolf'' i.e. "[[Werewolf]]").

* [[Big Damn Kiss]]: With Eva Braun when she [[Undying Loyalty|told him she wouldn't leave Berlin for Bavaria in 1945.]] According to eyewitnesses it was an incredibly awkward moment for all concerned except Adolf and Eva.

* [[Bishounen]]: The manga version of ''Mein Kampf'' portrays the younger Hitler as one. Yes, there actually exists a ''Mein Kampf'' manga.

* [[Black and Gray Morality]]: While Hitler's treatment of civilians is widely reviled (for good reason), pretty much every country on either side had its own share of atrocities.

* [[Black and Gray Morality]]: While Hitler's treatment of civilians is widely reviled (for good reason), pretty much every country on either side of WWII had its own share of atrocities.

* [[Bling Bling Bang]]: He apparently owned a [http://www.williammaloney.com/Aviation/WestPointMilitaryMuseum/WorldWarII/pages/24AdolphHitlersLilliputPistol.htm gold-plated gun] which he carried with him regularly, which was taken as booty at the end of the war and is now in the possession of the West Point Military Museum.

* [[Brilliant but Lazy]]: One of his teachers described Adolf as "having unlimited talent" but he was too much of a dreamer.

Line 109:

{{quote|''Congratulations! You just entered the residence of the world's most insane madman! What are you going to do next?!''

'''Soldier (arrives at Hitler's bunker)''': ''I'm going to kill Hit--[[Gainax Ending|HEY!!! HITLER KILLED HIMSELF!!!]]'' }}

* [[Dystopia Justifies the Means]]: It shouldn't come as a surprise that Hitler had a rather hellish vision for the empire he ruled. Whether or not he [[Utopia Justifies the Means|honestly believed he was building a better world]], or just creating a world he found more aesthetically pleasing, he ran a pervasive [[Police State]] where terror and massive repression was the norm, and a goal of creating a new type of man - the Aryan Übermensch - defined by his fanatical loyalty to party/state, his ruthless persecution of perceived enemies, a rejection of pacifism, compassion and "sympatheticism", and generally just a fit, brilliant, cold-hearted bastard.<br /><br />On being told that his tyrannical policies in annexed nations would mean Germany would be faced with rebellion and terrorism for decades to come, Hitler claimed he was "delighted" at the prospect, because he wanted Germans to be in a state of perpetual alertness. He planned the annihilation of several ethnic minorities, principally the Jews who were targeted not just for supposed "racial" inferiority but also to eliminate their 'cultural influence' - namely, for spreading ideas like peace, love, and the "lie" that all men were fundamentally equal. He intended to stamp such ideals out and replace them with "virtues" of hatred, ruthlessness, self-aggrandizement and [[War Is Glorious]]. [[Sarcasm Mode|Such a pleasant individual.]]

* [[The Empire]]: He created one of the most infamous [[Real Life]] examples.

* [[Enemy Civil War]]: In addition to the Night of The Long Knives, where he had the SA purged and made an impotent organization because he saw their ambition as a threat to his power, Hitler constantly pitted his top lieutenants and subordinates against each other so they could never overthrow him. This was both to ensure his own supreme power and because he believed it was a kind of positive Social Darwinism.
