More than 100,000 Germans flock to see hitler film on its opening night
R-Tistic:
Harbinger, I see what you are sayin, and in some ways I agree.
I am black, so you know I hated bein in history class and seein them downplay slavery. I remember in one of my text books, they talked about how "most slave owners treated the slaves relatively good because it helped the slaves become more productive" and they never made slavery look as bad as it was. Also, I can feel for the Native Americans and I know that everything from Manifest Destiny to what really happened after Thanksgiving showed how shady that America is.
I know that Hitler may not be the only one to do evil shit like he did, and you are right, the winners will always make the losers look worst than they are when they write the history books. I know that they focus on Hitler more than many other dictators, but aside from the fact that he lost, there are reasons for it. It was definitely the most atrocious act in recent history, and many countries are still feeling the effects of what happened during his time. Also, he is the most horrific dictator in the era of modern media, so there is much more information recorded about him, and also more pictures and audio of what happened during his time compared to what happened a long time ago.

Hitler and his people(germans) were responsible for genocide.. The Italians didn't take part in that.
