Hitler, Lied Shamelessly, Convinced Millions, Willingly Sacrificed Them, Madeleine K. Albright

“Hitler lied shamelessly about himself and about his enemies. He convinced millions of men and women that he cared for them deeply when, in fact, he would have willingly sacrificed them all. His murderous ambition, avowed racism, and utter immorality were given the thinnest mask, and yet millions of Germans were drawn to Hitler precisely because he seemed authentic. They screamed, “Sieg Heil” with happiness in their hearts, because they thought they were creating a better world.” ― Madeleine K. Albright, Fascism: A Warning
