How Much Like Hitler Are You?

[user 115627]

I got 0% as well. Truly a travesty.

The test is a mess though and kept thinking how it would make everyone who knows a bit about political philosophies tear their hair out.

 

[TheRealCallie]

Okay, I took it for real. lol


You are 9% like Hitler!
Your traditional conservative beliefs mean that you have very little in common with Adolph Hitler. Congrats you're a human being after all!

Yes it is actually pretty bad, some elements are actually quite annoying but it wasn't to be taken seriously anyway.

So I know this is a little late, and not really relevant anymore, but at the same time it gave me a chuckle to find out that not only is this a thing, but that it has been a thing for some time:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reductio_ad_Hitlerum

"Reductio ad Hitlerum (/ˈhɪtlərəm/; Latin for "reduction to Hitler"), also known as playing the Nazi card, is an attempt to invalidate someone else's position on the basis that the same view was held by Adolf Hitler or the Nazi Party. Arguments can correctly be called reductio ad Hitlerum if they are fallacious, e.g. arguing that because Hitler abstained from eating meat or was against smoking, anyone else who does so is a Nazi. Contrarily, straightforward arguments critiquing fascist components of Nazism like eugenics are not part of the association fallacy.

Coined by Leo Strauss in 1953, reductio ad Hitlerum borrows its name from the term used in logic called reductio ad absurdum ("reduction to the absurd"). According to Strauss, reductio ad Hitlerum is a form of ad hominem, ad misericordiam, or a fallacy of irrelevance. The suggested rationale is one of guilt by association. It is a tactic often used to derail arguments because such comparisons tend to distract and anger the opponent."

I find that hard to belief. One short drawn mustache drawing later, you're practically siblings

How the Hell am I more Hitler than you are? Didn't you invade Poland in your teens?

 

[NoxApex(N/A)]

22%.
MOSTLY because I do have rather economically socialist political views.
Granted, that's entirely because I understand industrialization and money from a Galbraithian economic stance.
J.K. Galbraith knew his ****. Probably the only economist that I actually like.
Now I will admit, that's a hilarious quiz.
The only reason I'd invade Poland is for higher quality vodka, to impose the separation of church and state since they unfortunately don't have that there, and because I want to visit everything I can about Chopin. If that makes me Hitler than I guess I'm like Hitler.
Wtf quiz.

I didn't realize that it went back to 53 but for many years some have felt that equating anything with Hitler or the Nazi's automatically proved that it was bad. Even to the point of fabricating some history so that current activities could be equated to Hitler or the Nazi's.

If someone is like Hitler, then its probably pretty bad lol. Often though i think there is some truth to it, but thank god no place is like nazi germany anymore. Closest thing is probably China, i mean they have actual concentration camps there for genocidal intent.

@NoxApex(N/A) economy actually played a huge role in Hitlers rise to power, it was insanely bad in the years leading to to it. Completely mismanaged, and they wanted to find a easy way out, but the citizens payed the price, which gave Hitler a lot of room in the political playing field.

Worse even than Hitler though i think is Josef Mengele, extremest of torturers, in mideval times everyone would have cowered before him, sadist, psychopath, serial killer, mass murderer, angel of death in service of his government. Even Hitler considered him too extreme. And he lived happily ever after.

Yeah I, still don't see a quarter slot machine in the sky anywhere that says I need to give it quarters in order to get electricity.
That's just dumb. Having nearly 8,000,000,000 People on the planet is also dumb, and the rise of civilization and our sedentary lifestyle is also the marker point to the extraction of our species from outside of our natural element in nature as animals on this planet.

I also feel like 8 billion consumers may be a tad much lol, it creates scarcity. I dont think its sustainable.

I like multiplicity, numbers are fun. Abundance can be useful to a point, but overabundance can be an epic pain in the ass.
Now if you consider the fact that all 8 Billion people are cognitively developed sentient beings, you can't just keep herding that like cattle by poisoning the well of media consumption, that's how bad **** happens, really bad ****. I'm actively actually afraid of society and for the future, not because people scare me, but because the stupidity of people scares me.
