Yes, there are many sociopaths in the world. But the big deal is because Hitler was in a position of great power - and that's when it goes horribly wrong.
Hitler SHOULD be remembered as a reminder to us to never let a sick racist into a postion of power ever again, our remembering the war and Hitler and the death of so many Jews is because we need to do everything in our power to prevent it ever happening again (and yes, I know there have been genocides since WW2). Hitler was supported by many many Germans at that time, due to all the shit that happened before, it was the governments fault and the peoples, but I suppose no-one knew how bad it would be.
and I think you might have a little old fashioned view of how people view Germans, I don't think all Germans are like Hitler because well..that's a little racist isn't it? We're not all stupid enough to assume every German is a Hitler worshipper and I think you'd be hard pressed to find a lot of young people who think that nower days.

I agree that hitlers power was a big foundation to the monster he became, as i stated before. Any person that has such ludicruos veiws on humanity should never become the president, or be in charge or any one or thing.
I'm not sure if the second paragraph was for me, but if it was...
I dont think of hitler when i think of germany or the german people, i love them. All of the german friends i have are so nice, they are the opposite to the stereotype that many of them receive from people.
There is always going to be racists, murders, dishonest people and people that stray far from the line of sanity, but i guess as a global society we just have to deal with these people as they come. The holocast is something that happened in the past, its always going to be remembered for the inhumane things that were unleashed on the world. But in society today, there is still terrible terrible acts that are all around us. Assassinations, murders, rape, theft and many more. The holocast is thought of to be so terrible because it was targetted on a certain race of people, but in actual fact there was alot of germans, turks and many other races that died in thoughs gas chambers and death camps. Without all these terrible events, today.. right now would be different.
I'm glad the past is the past, because it allows us to create a different and better future based on the mistakes that others have made in the past.
