They literally did this. Look up Heil Honey I'm Home

[@AngryCosmonaut]

feels more like a show on Fox.

[@fillezzo]

That would definitely be a interesting series. It's not about give a excuses about his actions but about explaining how one man can go from being an artist wanting to dream and then becoming one of the worst men in history. It's kinda like the joker story. Edit: People are afraid of humanizing hitler. I get it who wants to humanize a man responable for the holocaust but what people forget is that HE was human just like us. People aren't born bad, they become it by the environment they grow up in. Btw awesome video as always, I wish I could support u guys but I ain't go no job lol, hard times. Take care of yourself.

[@Al7249]

Lol same like damn. I generally like history and had no idea that he was a product of incest. I DO know that he favored a niece of his. But yeah, to me I usually see it as the why perspective. How and why can we find out what made this man tick and how can we prevent it.

[@FolkSongsEtAl]

There are movies about Hitler, like Downfall. I think this one would be much harder to make, because no historian is really sure just exactly what drove him, or why he became such a genocidal hate fueled freak.

[@ViolentKisses87]

Yeah Thats intresting, I honestly don't know enough about Hitlers Personal Life to say for sure, but I would say his love of the German people was real. Alot of dictators don't give a shit about their people like Kim Jong Un.

[@gokuss15]

Humanizing people like Hitler is incredibly important. Thinking of him as some unique monster actually increases the likelihood we get another Hitler. We should learn the history so we can recognize the patterns that turn regular people into somebody who can do monstrous things like Hitler.

[@FolkSongsEtAl]

@@ViolentKisses87 He actually didn't give a damn about the German people, which was why he was so callous in wasting their lives. In the end he didn't care if they were destroyed because they failed him.

@L M who said he was American?

[@jolie8971]

ww2 would’ve happened nonetheless. the terms of the treaty of versailles were impossible to uphold for germany and as it said in the video it humiliated a proud nation. someone else would’ve taken hitler’s place. maybe someone a bit less cruel, maybe not.

[@barratad323]

he,Adolf,got so much support because many of the old soldiers/generals were enraged and insulted to be treated so badly after ww1 loss....Edit. they wanted a rematch.

[@Somewhere_Bagel]

@L M who says we just learned that now? Thats been known for a long time. Dont act like you are some intelligent person but be ignorant at the same time

[@fallsarian5371]

A contributing factor for why the guy was so crazy comes from his time in WWI. He nearly died in the trenches, from the mustard gas too, not defending his terrible actions, definitely played a role.

[@personmanman3071]

[@isakekberg8519]

these history ones are nice imo

[@bracejuice7955]

There are a few series about hitlers rise to power, but not any from his early life. It would be a good series to watch because it’s important to understand that people like Adolph Hitler weren’t inhuman monsters but actual living breathing people, and it’s important to understand them so we can prevent them from forming and rising to power again.

[@M11969]

Agreed, history is there to learn from, it will be offensive at times, but we need to learn and remember so patterns do not repeat.

[@bracejuice7955]

@L M like a drama series? As opposed to a documentary that is

Queen Elizabeth II and her late husband Prince Philip are also cousins. They are both directly related to Queen Victoria.

[@SherriLyle80s]

Marrying cousins over in Europe is common although not as common as a few decades ago. The late Prince Phillip, husband of Queen Elizabeth are cousins. Hitlers parents were like 2nd or 3rd cousins. His father was much older than his mother.

It'll sound weird, but at that time, even in America, it was not that odd for middle and upper class white people to marry their cousins. Even 1st cousins at times. The Hapsburgs (Austrian Royalty) at one time had married into so many wealthy and royal family's that they couldn't help marrying someone with shared relatives.

this one of the funniest ones yet, and yea i forgot a load of shit from school its all good its kinda weird how u spend all the time in school thinking this shits so boring then years later u go down a rabbit hole on yt or wikipedia and read the equivalent of 3 history books in 1 day like "wow how did those teachers manage to make this shit so boring"

[@sgharris456]

They're actually is a Netflix special called Hitler's circle of evil it's really good

[@Ruosteinenknight]

04:03 Depending on who Alois's father was. Alois's mother Maria never revealed anyone who the father was, so Alois was just written up as llegitemate and Johann Georg Hiedler became Alois's step-dad after marriage, making him and Klara cousins by marriage. Johann was officially recognized as Alois's biological father.....20 years after Johann Georg had died and 30 years after death of Alois's mother, so they weren't there to dispute or confirm it. While he was living though, Johann Georg never recognized Alois as his biological son. If he truly was Alois's biological father, Klara and Alois were first cousins once removed. There's actually lot of circumstancial evidence that Alois's father might be Johann Georg's brother, Johann Nepomuk. He went trough awfull lot of trouble to back Alois up in his claims to prove that Alois was Johann Georg's son, so that Alois could legally inherit him. That seems real out of character thing to do for just a child out of wedlock, considering what the attitudes during that time were. Not that it paticulary helps his case: now Klara would be Alois's half-niece.

Not only were his parents cousins, but before he came to power he forced his niece Geli Raubal to become his mistress and ultimately drove her to suicide, or possibly murdered her after learning she had become pregnant.

4:00 that tame ass..."Makes sense" LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLddyyyyiinnnnnn

[@emillyhatfield456]

The Hitler space jam got me 😂😂😂

[@Swissswoosher]

Fact: After Hitler came to power he ordered that his family doctor (who had also treated his mother), a Jew, be put under special protection by the Secret Police. This meant that he and his wife were not to be harassed or abused in any way and could keep their house and property until the emigration to America was completed. They had no issues receiving documents or getting on the ship. No other Jew in the town the doctor lived in received this special status.

[@JoesCoco]

I highly doubt any streaming service or production studio would ever make this. Reason being they dont wanna glorify or humanize the monster that hitler is. Not to mention the push back they'd get from Jewish and human rights groups. As incredible as this story is, i dont see it happening. Im personally content with the story Oversimplified made for us.

[@gettoyourpointagosta8539]

I always found it interesting that Hitler only did buildings in his art. No people, no landscapes - nothing with life.

[@endercat1707]

I am German and what I learned is that if ppl are not cared for, no mater the system they are going to demonstrate and rebel to an extreme, monarchy would have worked if they treated the ppl right, every system would have if it allowed every person to have basic human needs like house or apartment, food e.t.c.. Another thing is is that desperate times call for desperate measures, they should have known better then to make a already relatively poor country after a war pay a huge amount of money that it could never have. It was bound to fail. On top of that they made a many solders workless and they humiliated Germany. I don’t understand what was going on in there mind creating the treaty of Versailles. The only thing it did was damage.

[@ConnanTheCivilized]

4:49 We’re absolutely devastated by this betrayal! If you don’t know literally everything, we don’t trust your opinion. 🥁

[@TheDraconnian]

The family doctor was Jewish. How much Hitler was attached to his mother is shown by the fact that when the Crystal Night and the persecution of Jews began, Hitler sent his bodyguard to escort the doctor to safety. As a sign of gratitude for fighting for his mother for the rest of her life. In the end, he allowed him to escape to Switzerland.

[@AirMarshalFiftyCent]

You definitely have a point about the selective outrage. It's insane to me people buy/display Confederate Flag shit. Can you fucking imagine if someone in Germany flew a Swastika flag and was like "What? It's Heritage not Hate." Plus at least modern German government goes above and beyond to make ammends to European Jews. The American government will NEVER do anything meaningful like that for black people, which is a shame.

[@kcirtapelyk6060]

His parents were allegedly second cousins but it’s never been proven. Even if they were, it hardly counts as incest. Second cousins are distant enough where if they have a child, the probability of passing on birth defects or diseases are nearly as low as the general public.

[@mattrobinson828]

4:10 😂😂 that’s my new absolute favorite quote about Hitler

[@nathenism]

understanding is not justifying or e+cusing

[@barnabydodd8956]

Marriage between cousins was very common in the past. Every culture, every race, every country. It seems weird to us now, but it was commonplace for thousands of years all throughout history. So it doesn't really mean what you think it might mean.

[@GermanHighwayduringtheworldoil]

as a german, i think i can say: the young Hitler was a good person with an big heart and dreams, he loved his mother so lot, when his mother became sick, he had his own bed in the hospital. But i don't know, why he became a murder in his second life. If you think a man, who is emotional or not hard, is not a man, you don't have understand what it means to be a man. Maybe, Hitler break with his old life, at the moment when he understand, he can't survive with his "not hard" charakter.

[@soulshredder1368]

I kind of have to agree this would make a very interesting series with a lot of different points of view

[@iangillham8099]

space jam 3 Hitler vs Looney tunes. same as the end games

[@SRosenberg203]

You guys should watch Inglorious Basterds, a Quentin Tarantino movie. It has basically a squad of American soldiers being sent behind enemy lines to assassinate Hitler and it's amazing. EDIT: There's also another movie called "Valkyrie" that's really good, and is actually pretty historically accurate. It's about _German_ military offers trying (and failing, obviously) to assassinate Hitler, which happened historically a bunch of times.

[@AstroXeno]

Hitler: The Rise of Evil was a miniseries made for CBS in the early 2000s about Hitler's younger days. There have also been three movies made about Hitler's death. Of these Downfall is by far the best. If you don't want to deal with subtitles, Hitler: The Last Ten Days isn't as good, but it's in English. The Bunker is certainly depressing enough, but I didn't like a lot of the casting choices. What sets it apart from the others is that it's told from Albert Speer's perspective.

[@vincentbergman4451]

Hitlers favorite movie was Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. That’s fucking creepy

[@413xxx86]

What would the Series be called? The Eagle? Hitler is a interesting topic, it could be an arguably good topic for a series. I feel for the Jews, us Natives nearly went extinct.

[@SRosenberg203]

There's a lot of interesting story there to be explored for sure, but I doubt a studio would have the courage to do it. The social consequences of trying and fucking it up would be just so high.

[@runbkk8981]

People marrying cousins weren't unusual back in the days because there was a desire to keep hereditary property within the family which of course then also meant a higher risk of hereditary diseases and other health problems in childrens but at the time people didn't shit because medical science was inchoate and infant mortality was really high anyway. Today marrying a relative as close as a cousin in Western world and other developed countries is generally considered wrong/disgusting because better knowledge of people. However its still really common in most of the developing countries where education is low and old traditions are still kicking.

[@nahumhabte6210]

Netflix better give you your creds!

[@fusssel7178]

I checked out of curiousity, in Germany it is still legal to marry your cousins, only direct blood relatives (parent/child, brother/sister, grandchild/grandparent) are forbidden.

[@cCiIcCo]

3:59 Klara was the granddaughter of the farmer Johann Nepomuk Hüttler, whose brother Johann Georg Hiedler was the stepfather of Adolf Hitler's father Alois Hitler. In 1876 - years after the death of Hiedler and Alois Hitler's mother Anna Maria Schicklgruber - Hüttler arranged for Hiedler to be registered as Alois' biological father. Historians consider Hiedler and Hüttler to be the most likely candidates for the biological paternity of Alois Hitler. Klara Pölzl was therefore the daughter of a cousin of Alois Hitler (with fatherhood Johann Georg Hiedler), or his niece (with fatherhood Johann Nepomuk Hüttler). In that case, Adolf Hitler's mother would also have been his cousin.

[@RalfYzermans]

[@jackdaniels4346]

Damn they tried to make me feel bad for Hitler and then I remember what he did

[@Jay-kx5cb]

You should feel bad for him he was a product of incest, came from an abusive household, was treated poorly by his classmates, had his brother, father and mother die when he was young and was not able to go to the school of his dreams. All of this and more led to him becoming who he was. Its important to call out his evil actions but you should also feel bad for him too, because it really isn’t just one and not the other

[@jackdaniels4346]

An abusive upbringing doesn’t mean I should feel bad about a colonisation attempter and a Jew killer. If he didn’t do any of that stuff I would feel bad but there’s plenty of people who are products of incest and abuse yet they don’t plot to kill millions

[@Jay-kx5cb]

@@jackdaniels4346 Then don’t feel bad for that hitler but feel bad for the once innocent hitler that was born in such a toxic environment. If you don’t understand this way of thinking its ok, but in my mind I find feeling bad for him and at the same time ridiculing him for his evil actions lets me have a more balanced and truthful way I view this man. His mind was likely a place of torture and suffering which had him do the things that he did.

His doctor was also giving him as well as his soldiers tons of drugs similar to meth and things like that to reduce pain and emotional connection.
