Well obviously I'd prefer if we all said he was bad. Sadly, even to this day, there will always be sympathizers and supporters of the most horrific people. And you can't make everyone think your way.
I think, thankfully, most of society isn't a Hitler supporter anyway.... people can think for themselves and we don't have to go around saying "Hitler is bad" in order to stop society falling apart. Society naturally holds together (if only barely!) by the moral Zeitgeist.
Besides, for those warped enough to be a supporter of Hitler, I doubt we'd be able to convince them otherwise.
