C.S Lewis
I do prefer the raw philosophical answer of C.S. Lewis, but I think I led with a direct quote from a forensic psychiatrist? Because I suspect you'll respect that more (since you clearly don't like actually thinking about things like the nature of evil and what motivates men to do evil, you just like having answers spoonfed to you by authoritative sources). -

man those guys were hungry and paranoid about russians it's all "I shot this Russian, they stole my code book, I ate 20 eggs and threw them up, I visited my family in Bavaria and then siege a Russian village a week later, those damn Russians"
every german war diary of them on the eastern front involves them cooking and eating a horse eventually EVERY FUCKING TIME dudes were going hard
some of these guys were officers and hung out with hitler, he seemed chill and should have probably not done so much meth

One of the most comprehensive Hitler pathographies comes from the neurologist and psychiatrist Frederick Redlich.[89] Redlich, who emigrated from Austria in 1938 to the United States, is considered one of the founders of American social psychiatry. In his 1998 published work Hitler: Diagnosis of a Destructive Prophet, on which he worked for 13 years, Redlich came to believe that Hitler had indeed shown enough paranoia and defense mechanisms in order to "fill a psychiatric textbook with it", but that he was probably not mentally disturbed. Hitler's paranoid delusions "could be seen as symptoms of a mental disorder, but the largest part of the personality worked normal." Hitler "knew what he was doing and he did it with pride and enthusiasm." -

2023-09-07 at 1:15 PM UTCInb4my man doesn't respect C.S. Lewis because he wrote the Chronicles of Narnia, not understanding that he was one of the most insightful men of the 20th century (in my estimation and the estimation of those much smarter than I) with some of the deepest insight into the human condition that any person has ever had the courtesy of putting pen to paper to record. He's up there with Aurelius and Plato, and if you just think of him as an author of children's books... well, that says more about your mental midgetry than anything else you've said ITT.

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson read it again…all of it…
He knew what he was doing (killing a bunch of people) and was proud of that (because it was for the greater good). What am I not getting? Or are you inserting the words "was wrong" after "doing" in your head, and expecting me to read it from there instead of from the within the text you shared? -

That is literally implied nowhere within the passage aside from the guy's name being "Hitler". My rŠµading comprŠµhension is top notch, chief. Hitler was proud because he believed he was doing something good. He knew innocents were dying, he was not insane, what he did was calculated and cannot be handwaved away as if he was ignorant of the costs, but he believed those costs were outweighed morally by the dividends that his actions would pay to the German people.
Misguided.
