It may be true that Hitler did many "good" things and that the more disturbing parts of his era have been overstated (I am not an expert), but I honestly fail to see the need by some people to defend him or his legacy. I believe it is generally accepted that he participated in some degree of genocide and ultimately drove his country to ruin. It seems to me that Germany would have been better off if a less militaristic, less nationalistic leader arose to help them out of the post WW1 Depression. It appears to me that post-Hitler Germany was much worse off that pre-Hitler Germany.(This is opinion, not hard, researched fact.)
Am I wrong and what is the "need" to defend Hitler?
