Perhaps teaching children to never question authority was a bad idea

    Only 13 million? I think that severely limits his responsibility. Hitler didn’t cause just 13 million deaths. Hitler caused 13 million jews to be killed + 65 million allies + ~44k in the blitzkreig + ~5 million german soldiers + all the other groups targeted in the holocaust (Roma, Gypsies, LGBT, mental patients, etc.) + all the civilians that got caught up in the battlefield (Africa + Europe). In total, Hitler mighta got 100 million.

      It was 6 million Jews, 13 million total in the camps.

      There weren’t even 13 million Jews in Europe before wwii lol.

      And total deaths, military and civilian, during wwii were 75-85 million. You don’t need to make up numbers. It was already the most human death in history. Making shit up gives the conspiracy nuts ammo.
