    I am Queens Blvd.

    The man can speak. They don't make political speeches like these any more.
    That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

    Everything Hitler did enabled his terror ---> Everything Hitler did is terrible ---> Hitler gave great speeches and that's terrible ---> Thatcher gave great speeches and she's terrible.

    There's some poor logic in there somewhere. I can't tell if its the arrows or the words or all of it but it's there.

    Not everything Hitler did was terrible. He breathed oxygen, he kept an omnivorous, spent 100% of his life not clutching at his own eyeballs and plucking them out, etc.

    I undoubtedly share more similarities with Hitler than a mouse does, and almost all of those similarities that I hold are generally deemed "good" things that make me a more worthwhile conglomerate of particles than mice are.

    For what it's worth (unfortunately it was worth a lot in his time), he also spoke well and had a good handle on using extra-verbal communication to express exactly what he was trying to say. This is generally quite a good tool, though it's obviously being used for quite wretched ends when that's convincing you to kill everyone who isn't a white, straight gentile.

    I recently watched a documentary about urbanization, which included protests in Germany about tearing down some old trees. This one hippy was giving an fiery speech in his native language, and as much as the subtitles said ~"Boy howdy trees are awesome. I love the color green, and hippy love peaciness are the best, most cuddly of times,"~ I couldn't help but cringe. I think I've been completely hardened against ever listening to any impassioned German, regardless of the translation.
