British historian A. J. P. Taylor called Hitler “just an ordinary German politician” and, though violently antisemitic, no more antisemitic than millions of other Germans of his time.
I have an idea for a story about a German scientist who invents time travel. He does this in the 1980s, 30 years after a nuclear war between the Soviet Union and the US has killed 95% of humanity. The scientist decides the best way to prevent the apocalyptic war is to give the two countries a common enemy. Perhaps even start a non-nuclear conflict to show them how devastating war can be. I call the book. “Dr. Hitler.”
I’ll never write it, of course. Hitler was a monster.
Maybe it could be about a group of scientists who lose control of their time travel attempt to prevent nuclear war when one of their members turns out to be a genocidal racist.

I’m just intrigued if he’s related to Percival Dunwoody.

Krauss was bad, but not as bad as Schmitt.

Dictators are more or less interchangeable.
