There would be at all nothing wrong with fascist ideology if you weren't in the minority being persecuted then? It would be hedonistic and utilitarian in that Nazi's enjoyed themselves and had a well run/organised society by their standards. It did go a bit wrong for them but only because they lost the war of which they had a fair chance to win.
Good ol Godwins law, when you don't like facts you bring up Hitler.
I'd suggest you look up "Got Mitt Uns" and read Mien Komph before you go equating atheists to such a monster. Hitler was NOT an atheist.
