Was Hitler objectively bad?

[Rev. Rye]

How could I have possibly missed the point of the question? Your motive is as clear as the meaning of life!!! A hypothetical question does not & cannot have a proven answer. You may speculate as well as the next person, but your assertions cannot hold water, becuase they are just that, assertions. The fact is, I didn't anwer the question how you would have liked me too.

I'm sorry, I was thinking under the impression that you were going to at least recognise that competency and evil were not mutually exclusive. For What it's Worth, I read earlier that the Allied Powers planned to assassinate him, but decided against it because they realised how incompetent he truly was (Did I mention he decided to invade a nation who routed off their last invader primarily by nature of being fucking huge?) But what if he got assassinated and one of his employees (probably Goering, Bormann, or Himmler, especially Bormann) ended up gaining power before the war was finished? That was the question I was thinking. I should have put even more emphasis on the comparable evil and less Terl-like behavior of Hitler's cronies. I should probably have made clearer that I meant "what if Hitler had been assassinated and we hadn't won the war yet?"
