I don't know to me Hitler was a nebish a man without particular skill, or unique thought an incompetent. If it were not him it would have been another nothing person Germany was ready for evil and he was a avatar of that urge.

He ran his country from rags to ashes with a brief ponzi fueled bubble. He opened fronts he did not need to, picked fights he could not win. Ran a insanely ineffective government. I have read his book and it only reinforced the banality of evil to me.
