Skirting close to the prohibited area here for me per the rules.
History is written by the victors. History is often changed by those in power. Or just disappeared and replaced by a new narrative of the liking of those in power.
I've come to learn that so many of what we are lead to believe, institutionally, just is not true.
As hitler was already mentioned and not removed and/or the person not banned, I should be able to say this. What we have been taught about ww2 in europe, specifically the nazis is wrong, an artificial construct of justification. The nsdap (nazi party) were leftists. It's even in their name, socialists. Their party platform and the platform of the party they grew from, the german workers party (dap) wasn't much different than the soviet communist one. Look them up and you'll see.
WW2 in europe was a war that was started and mainly waged by two leftist dictatorships, each seeking to expand their empire. Eastern european historians understand this and a few modern books have been written about this.
So both sides there were bad. One side had to be morphed into what they were not (nsdap right wing) in order to justify a different POV of them to justify what happened after the war....the other leftists, their cousins, the communists won in europe.
I think that's all I can say due to the rules here. Hopefully this won't be disappeared and or me banned, but it's happened before.
