Daily Mail Readers LITERALLY Praise Adolf Hitler

A rather amusing Twitter account by the name of "The DM Reporter" which details the bigoted ramblings within both the Daily Mail newspaper and their comments section, allowed the racist nature of people who read the Mail to be laid bare. The Mail decided to discuss Nazi-era propaganda pictures attempting to show Adolf Hitler's apparent tender-hearted personality.

Now, to be fair to the Daily Mail on this one particular instance, it wasn't the article which attempted to sympathise with Hitler and how he was portrayed, but their readers. The Daily Mail comments section isn't the most reasoned place as it is, but when you throw in one of history's worst villans, you should expect widespread condemnation, no matter your political leanings, Mail readers decided to insinuate that there was a media smear operation against Hitler, and he actually wasn't all that bad.

By far my favourite comment from those pictured above is the very first, as if people with an IQ in double figures couldn't work out that the praising of Hitler makes you a racist, the commenter had to let us all know that because there are supposedly more "darker" people in supposed 'white countries', this somehow leads to high levels of crime and Hitler may have saved us all from such horrors. Or perhaps the best comment is the "Hitler liked animals so he's not as bad as people think" on the right hand side, because if there's one thing that will make people forgive you for being the mastermind behind a ethnic genocide, its feeding a deer, obviously.

Here we have more breathtaking stupidity from the Daily Mail comment section, the first one being the worst because it perpetuates the myth that Hitler's nazi regime were apparently progressive socialists because the official name of Hitler's party was the 'National Socialist Party'. This is a falsehood that is deeply embedded in right-wing politics as they attempt to deflect away anything bad that comes from their side of the political spectrum. With influential conservatives such as Steven Crowder stating that Adolf Hitler was a "Socialist Liberal" because of the quote pictured below that these idiots attempt to falsely attribute to Hitler, which actually came from one of his political rivals, but don't expect people like Crowder and his fans to actually admit they were wrong, Nazi's were liberals as far as they're concerned. 

There are plenty of comments, just like those shown previously, of people wishing Hitler was still alive as he could save Europe, quite what it needs saving from is anyone's guess. Perhaps they're scared because they see too many brown people when they go on holiday to european countries, or they decide to use a terrorist attack to further their own political agenda, without realising the much more nuanced foreign policy decisions that lead to radicalisation are responsible and that "banning Muslims" isn't an actual policy that has any intellectual or moral substance in the fight against terrorism.
