That thumbnail is absolutely wild.
A reference I am sure Simon has no idea what it is.
I dont recognize the characters is it a cheeky refrence or joke? @matthewdopler8997

@@LordProtectorPepper It's a side effect of "everyone I don't like is Hitler". Call people "anime nazis" and you start getting photoshops of cute anime girls with Hitler because it's funny.

The first five minutes of this video REALLY needed a family tree diagram!
At least one you can read….
I am so glad to see I am not the only one that had trouble following. I am bad with names, but add non-linear familial relationships to that, and im done
Thought i hit the joint too hard lol
Fr I had to go back so many times that I ended up hand making a family tree real quick just to try to understand
I think a roadmap is more apt

"died of measles in June of 1900 because the past was the worst" was such a throwaway line but it was a gem. I quite literally spit out my drink because of this.
And yet you still have people that think that their so called "end stage capitalism" is bad and going back to old ways and times would fix everything... and they are mostly on the "progressive" side
Yet, every generation whines and reminisces about how the world was "better back in the day" and how the newer generations are terrible. Never fails.

My uncle, whose family name was Hiler, was accidentally given the ID badge of William Patrick Hitler, which was next to his, when they were both serving in a CCC camp (the Civilian Conservation Corps was a semi-military organization run by the Federal government to provide employment during the Depression). Hitler's nephew explained to my uncle the source of his colorful surname.
Definitely a standout thumbnail.

I'm amazed that even his blood relatives referred to him as "Hitler", as those direct quotes prove.
True lol it’s like trumps relatives calling him “trump” meanwhile they have the same last name lol
Like Cher
@@TheloniousCube Well...
My uncle was Adolf Hitler Matangbuko, he was pretty based even before we knew who he was named after
I used to have a manager with the last name Hiler. He was a jerk so we used to joke that his family name was really Hitler and they just took the T out when they emigrated. Maybe we were closer to correct than we thought.
Odds are he was doing his job because you sound like someone difficult to manage...name calling like a child on a playground.
Maybe he was. Video says they are still out there just living normal lives.
So like simon added a "w" and an "s" to the name?
That happened more times than you think when people migrated to the US. Like when my great grandfather migrated to the US from Sweden his last name went from Neilson to Nelson.
Ronald Reagan’s family likely had an O’ preceding their last name until someone got off the boat in NY and the clerk didn’t feel like writing the O’…
They were hoping they wouldn't enrage Adolf's father, who punished him severely.

There was a family that I knew whose name was originally Hitler which was changed In WWII. Another family acquaintance, our butcher had changed their name from Mussolini again in WWII. Neither were related to the notorious holders of the families original names.
Rough. To edit though i totally get it from my own name
I find that difficult to believe.
because Hitler was originally spelled Hiedler, and his father Alois changed it to Hitler.
ie. Hitler is extremely rare surname even in Germany or Austria for that matter.
@@davidjacobs8558 I was classmates with the daughter from K-12. That is what we were told. The name they took was just a little different.
A friend of mine's family "Americanized" their German last name when they immigrated here around/during WWI. They dropped a single consonant! She said it wasn't uncommon for Germans to do that either because of ostracization or because their last name was too difficult for English-only speakers to pronounce or they would always transcribe the name phonetically, so that's what the family would stick with. They had a double M and dropped one to make it less Germanic plus Americans never spelt it right anyway.
@@xXNitemareXx Famous Hollywood Actor James Garner's real surname was Bumgarner. Which, obviously, is an unfortunate Americanization of Baumgärtner. So, Hollywood dropped the Bum part.
Interesting, but the video sorely needs more family tree chart graphics overlaid to tie the flurry of names and faces being thrown out together
Alois must have been quite the charmer. Guy was running around town laying pipe.
I feel like that's a common theme when you look at vitas from the 1800s (the time when we had solid documentation but no solid birth control or fertility treatment). Many either had a ton of children, or none at all. And f*ckboys are certainly not a 21st century invention.

Wom3n didn't have a way to survive other than marriage, being someone's favourite mistress. Or being maids, factory workers, beggars or s3x workers. That's why obnoxious and abus!ve m3n of the past basically had their pick, as long as they could afford it. And could even have a series of mistresses. Nothing to do with charm. That's why !nc3ls believe that those days were ideal, without taking into account that most m3n were also greatly abvsed and exploited by the upper classes.
With a face like Alois' what woman could resist.
@@mannacler 😂
Every time Simon mentions the gulag, I'm flashing back to him clutching his face and yelling "No! I don't want to go to the gulag!"
is it good?
A minor correction: Alois and Klara indeed had five children, but it was the first two -- Gustav and Ida -- who died in infancy. AH was number three. The fourth, a brother called Edmund, passed aged 6. The fifth, called Paula, survived her famous brother and died aged 64 in 1960.

I would like to change to word 'famous', to 'infamous.' Poor word choice, in this context. Mea Culpa.
There's 3 Hitlers buried right next to my WW2 code talker grandfather in law and about a quarter mile from my code talker dad. I've always wondered about them, though they appear to have died and been buried several years before and during WW2. There's also quite a few Histors buried there too. I've heard Histor is just Hitler misspelled.
Imagine the Japanese, trying in vain to understand the messages!
@kurtvanluven9351 Imagine waking up in your coffin after having been a code talker being surrounded by Hitlers! I could see my dad, "Hahaha Lozen. Very funny, Lozen. Now take me back to the Rez or to Arlington. WHADDA YOU MEAN MY GRANDCHILDREN "LIKE" JAPANESE CARTOONS?!?! IS THAT A JAPANESE CARTOON MACHINE IN YOUR HANDS?!?! ET TU, MY BELOVED DAUGHTER?!?!"

around 20 years ago working IT in London, a Young Irish web Developer started at the company, nice guy around 21. Anyway he proceeds to tell me a story of how there is an upcoming TV programme re his family/him (Channel 4) and it's about the fact they are part of Hitler's extended family, i.e from his brother Alois and Bridget. It was most unexpected. Turns out he was telling the truth, again he was a super nice guy
He was a nice guy until he started name dropping hitler.
@@grantschiff7544 he was'nt name dropping , at the time i worked with him, he said that there was a upcoming C4 programme about his family, where he might be mentioned , and that it was a well known family secret, so not to be shocked. It was just a weird family connection he had, i did'nt think he intended to invade Poland
@davidrenton I feel sorry for him. I also don't feel sorry for him. Extremely bad luck. A friend of mine had a notsee hidler youth grandfather, and we are good buddies, I tease him about it.
@@grantschiff7544 he seemed to treat it as , you think your uncle is mad :). It was an open secret, hence the C4 documentary, he comes from the Brothers side who lived in Liverpool during the war, and people do not bear the sins of their father, brother
i'll try and find the name of the show, it was 2001 just around 9/11 as i remember being at the job as we watched it unfold.
@@grantschiff7544 i might be wrong on this but i think Bridget Dowling, who was married to the Austrian painters brother was i think his great grandaunt or something, she was born in 1891 - 1969, and moved to America (being born in Dublin and living in Liverpool) , he was around 21 in 2001 , so it must be 3 generations back.
He was from Ireland, Bridget did have a brother Thomas Dowling , so maybe that was his Great Grandad
The thumbnail threw me for a loop.
When I was in university, I lived on the same street where his brother and sister-in-law lived.
There's a plaque outside it honouring his brother for his service in the Allied forces.
Local folklore says his sister-in-law was the one who convinced him to change to the Chaplin stache.
K-on thumbnail is crazy😭
What‘s a k-on and why is everyone talking about it
@joachimb5721 K-On is an anime, but some parts of its fan base are anti-Semitic and extremely racist. People with K-On pfp usually say some out of pocket racist stuff too.
@@saucymongoose7246whats wrong with anti-semitism?
@@joachimb5721 K-On is an anime about a Japanese High School club whose members form a band dedicated to playing light music, eating cakes and drinking tea. The band consists of the 4 girls in the thumbnail plus another (Ritsu) who isn't shown. It's as far from Hitler & fascism as you could possibly get. Unfortunately some idiot fascists decided to use their images in their posts and made some f*cked up memes about them.
@@saucymongoose7246 No. It was a thing many years ago for some people of the hitler persuasion to use it as their avatar in certain forums. Now it's just a meme.

@@SJH_21Sorry but my absolute love for K-On has nothing to do with my nationalism.
PS give Yui sweet treats and feed Azunyan tasty cakes
If anyone's confused about the thumbnail, the characters are from an anime called K-On, which is one of those "Cute girls doing cute things" anime (they are in a band). Basically completely unpolitical on its own, but for some reason Neo-Nazis (particularly on 4chan) have a weird affinity towards that type of media and that series in particular.
Therefore, people with profile pics of its characters being card carrying Nazis has become a stereotype and a meme (not inaccurate IMHO). The original edit in the thumbnail was also probably at least semi-serious, not someone making fun of those guys, which adds another layer to that joke.
"Neo nazis on 4chan" man I love when people try to explain stuff they aren't actually very familiar with.
It's because the juxtaposition of cute harmless characters doing and saying vile shit is FUNNY.
the subversion of expectations being used for comedy is as old as comedy itself
And basically everyone on 4chan is role playing being insane but are actually pretty damn normal irl (aside from the social issues) they're autistic shitposters trying to one up each other in the crazy shit they say and goofing off, not actual neo nazis lmao
@@TeslaHaxz
It's only ironic if it is convenient.

Oh look the twitter commie got trolled by randoms and decided they all must have been windmill germans 😢
That is tragic. But thanks for the explanation.
Those girls don’t deserve that, and the vast majority of their fans have nothing to do with hate.
I've often wondered what it was like for the relatives of him or for other people who are notorious in history. Can't be an easy thing
I don't know who got the idea for the thumbnail, but I'd give them a raise.
To combine a photograph of Austria's most famous painter and all members of the light music club from K-ON! - this is truly the best thumbnail I've ever seen.
Even better is Simon in the corner seemingly at a loss for words.

@@kitsuneneko2567 Simon has been at a loss for words a few times. Pretty funny moments.
When Alois Hitler learned what his son wanted to be, he raised a furor.

I had no idea I ever wanted to watch a sitcom named "Meet the Hitlers". Now I really want to watch it.
They must be neighbors with the Jetsons and Sopranos. I'd watch it.
Hollywood would never make it
there is a "Heil Honey I'm Home!" sitcom from the 90s
I know…. Since we have “keeping up with the kardasians” why not “keeping up with the Fuhrer”.
Or Hotler starring Ryan reynolds
Out of the million shows about Hitler I’ve never seen one about his family. Good work.
Simon, just wondering if you talk this fast in your everyday life, or if it is to squeeze as much as possible into each video. This old brain is thankful for UA-cam's speed adjuster 😄.
Keep up the great content!
Wiliam Patricks story is wild. I've never heard about him before and that's a tragedy. I definitly will teach my students about him now.
UA-cam videos are not education material. You wouldn’t even recognize the mistakes in this video before you were to repeat it. Please be a better teacher don’t steal material from Tiktok and UA-cam because they’re almost always missing critical info.
@@tomservo_what are the mistakes in this video then?
@@buy_large_mansionsOne definite mistake is the picture that supposedly shows the young Paula Hitler. Nope, it's Maria Reiter, a young girl he was linked with for a short time before Eva Braun.
At the end Hans Frank is mentioned as probably being mad at his boss for being in that situation and facing hanging. Actually, Hans Frank was the only one amongst the whole bunch of war criminals who showed a bit of remorse (Though that certainly did not absolve him, and it's recommended to read what Niklas Frank, the youngest of his three sons said about his father! Hint: it's not good.)
That's just two off the top of my head.
@@mariann2111 Hans Frank being remorseful doesn't alter the fact that he might still be angry with his former boss. I'll take your word on the mistake with the one photograph, it still seems pretty solid to me.
@@buy_large_mansionsI think I said something to this end - he wasn't absolved and his story was actually also told by Niklas Frank, his youngest son, who doesn't have a single good word for his father. Rightly so.
I read a rumour that Stalin was disappointed his own son had surrendered. Stalin refused the prisoner swap saying “he’s no longer a son of mine”.
We do not exchange lieutenants for generals.
Iti s interesting to note that both tyrants, Hitler and Stalin, both had a doting mother and an abusive father.
He did not want anyone to have leverage on him, and something like regular human feelings where a bit alien to him.
He was one of the MOST stubborn men ever. His daughter said with his last breath, he was shaking his fist, & arguing with GOD!
Read Sabag Montefiore’sbiography. Stalin ended up showing a good deal of respect for Yakov. He was seen gazing at his picture and mutmouring about what a ‘ real man ‘ his eldest son was. I suspect that he always thought so, but under the circumstances of Barbarossa couldn’t afford to say so. One of his illegitimate sons ( very handsome bloke ) served with distinction in the War, too. He died in the 90s. His legitimate younger son was a dire embarrassment to Daddy, drunkenly crashing aircraft, botching up anything that did. All of his sons looked very Georgian, completely alike to Dad. Svetlana looked nothing like either of her parents. I’ve long thought that she was not, in fact, Stalin’s daughter. It’s just as well that the Great Leader never seems to have considered this possibility. Imagine the resulting turmolt ! 😮😮😮
My friend found out only about 10 years ago that his (great?) grandfather was Rudolf Hess. He got super depressed when he found out, and doesn't like talking about it.
Why would he get depressed over that it sounds like he is sad because of what society might do to him but honestly if I found out my great grandfather was a nazi or something I would be pretty intrigued lmao that sounds pretty cool I mean if it makes sense lol
His dad was always distant, and a shell of a man, and did (does?) contract work with companies like Triple Canopy, KBR, etc in various warring regions, and he would always just send my friend money for whatever. He said they always seemed to have money, but never really knew where it came from. When he pressed his dad on the money thing, his dad told him of their family tree, and sent him a brand new drum set to make up for it.
To have an emotionless, never present father that lives a life of a mercenary that he barely knows surely takes a toll on its own, but then to find out that perhaps the reason why his dad was like that, was because his own father was one of the most well known Nazis in history.... That's pretty grim. I remember we were gonna jam, and he was like "yeah.. I don't even want to play these drums. What if these were bought with Nazi gold or something."
@@EyeNeedAllDat yikes.
@@svjnessI hope your friend has learned to internalize his family's past and make peace with it. What matters is he's living against the ideologies of an evil man. Blood is all they share. Nothing more.
@@svjness ah damn now that you explain the full story it makes sense I feel bad for the guy I hope he gets better if he hasn’t already I mean the whole dad situation sucks I can relate but in different ways my dad just wasn’t present but would show up like once every year or two but damn hope he is doing good I still think its pretty intriguing to have a well knows nazi as your grandfather I mean obviously he doesn’t have to respect the guy or anything but just that fact alone is pretty crazy
These are not shocking family secrets, but well-known facts. But I haven't seen another documentary that explains the complicated family relationships so well and summarizes everything.
The thumbnail looks like a bad acid trip
What a thumbnail 😅
The handgun used to kill Geli was a Smith and Wesson .22 revolver that was seized as a souvenir by a US soldier and is now in a US museum.
I just realized I can change the speed of Simon’s talking just a notch down to 0.75 in order to better catch everything he says. I found myself backtracking a lot 10, 20, 30 seconds here and there. But I absolutely enjoy listening to Simon. He’s the best❤
Thanks I needed that!!!!

"The Hitleeeeeeeeeeeers~" Also gotta love 'Oh my brother wouldn't have known about that.' DID YOU LISTEN TO A SINGLE SPEECH HE GAVE!?

Silly me.
This is fascinating ! Thank you. (**note** never watch this stoned, and without pencil and paper). Regardless, it's terrific. Also, the b&w photograph/films from pre-1950, are really telling. It's hard to explain. Weirdly, my dad was among the first American soldiers (82nd & 101st Airborne) to enter the Berghof (Eagle's Nest). Didn't know my dad well, but my older sister later told me, that me had chronic nightmares, from working at a Rumanian orphan camp after the war, as a GI. I've watched you about a dozen times, but this was one of your best. Subscribing now...
Light music club in the thumbnail 😅 Azuza's face says it all
The use of that anime in particular was ‘chef’s kiss’😂
Never thought I'd see K-on in any of Simon's thumbnails...
The K-on girls and Hitler together in one picture is something I never thought I would see, ever
K-on is inherently nationalistic
Your thumbnail has me crying around friends, thank you, it is amazing.
Interestingly, Geli was buried in consecrated ground. That wouldn't have been possible if she had taken her own life.
Let that sink in. I'll wait.
Well, influence can help there. Crown prince Rudolph also was burried in consecrated grund, and he killed himself plus murdered a Teenager he groomed for it. Also: the churches rules are a bit more nuanced. For a sin to be mortal, it has to be understood as mortal and done willingly. Mental illness, Youth etc can all be used as an Argument that your will wasn't free/that you didn't understand the gravity respectively.
There are always exceptions. And considering where she was to be buried likely came from a dictator that people immediately did without question ... or else, that means nothing here in this case. So it would have been entirely possible, and only up to a decision from a mad man. Let that sink in.....
Intelligent and tasteful video. Well done!
Aloisia Veit, his second degree cousin, was killed in a gaschamber at Hartheim in 1940.
I can’t help but have sympathy for his sister. I tried to imagine my own siblings doing such terrible things, and I still think I would be very sad if they passed away. The whole situation is heartbreaking.
This is something I was actually thinking about not too long ago So I'm glad you made a video on it
I love how it's so common for stuff like " a record few others in history have managed to match" just roll glibly off the tongue, when 2 contemporaries far exceeded him in death toll and easily matched him for sheer evil, and while Hitler started a war that killed 10s of millions across all of Europe, Stalin and Mao killed their own citizens in numbers that far outstripped the entirety of all European war dead.
Make this a sitcom show with a laugh track
I believe this could also be a rather hysterical Broadway type musical. -Daven
there IS a 90s show called "Heil Honey I'm Home!"
There was an employee at a gas station near me a few years ago that claimed to be related to Hitler.
He was creepy about it too and seemed proud.
Always talked about it
Sounds weird
Sounds cool
Thank you for not getting into the living relative’s info. Everyone is at the mercy of their fate, and they do not deserve condemnation for their relative’s crime, although their pact (which they have corroborated many times) is very respectable. Great episode, & fantastic content as always Mr. W. Simon 👏
Did you not watch the video? He said the pact isn't real.
The Stuart-Houston's lived near my husband when they were kids. They had NO IDEA who they were. As a kid my husband went over to their house and their kid went over to his house. He and Howard Stuart-Houston and others went on a ski trip together Howard Suart-Houston is the one who died in a car accident. My husband dropped his spoon in his soup when I told him who the Stuart- Houstons were.
There is a catacombs in Brussels where entire family lines are interred, generation after generation. One of the families in there, whose first cells date back to the founding of the catacombs, was the Nazhi family. Sometime in the mid 40s they, for some reason, chose to change their family name to Natchi...
I am a long-time subscriber and love your content but sincerely wish you would speak a bit slower so that I can understand what you are saying. Thank you!
I so agree!
I think that I've been watching your show, one or the other, for several years. I am always facinted by you topic, how well its written, and your wonderful delivery.
Respect for leaving the living alone.
The History Channel once did a special on Hilters surviving relatives and some immigrated to America ane now live somewhere on Long Island under a different name.
He wasn't related to Hit*&r, but my friend's child got harassed by older children because of the actions of an imprisoned uncle he'd never met. "Oh, you're one of those no good Wallis kids," even though it was that one specific family member who was the 💩bag.
That seems to happen a lot.
When my grandma was a kid, she had a neighbor who went absolutely nuts, just lost her entire grip on reality, and killed all but two of her kids (one was gone, the other was a baby whose twin she killed, but for some weird reason...left the other alive). She dressed them up, tucked 3 in bed, put one in a chair at the table and rocked the dead twin baby on a rocking chair outside all day long. 🤷 That was how she was found out. Someone saw the baby was dead when they came up to talk.
The two kids that survived were sent to live with nearby family and were bullied RELENTLESSLY. Grandma said rumors started that the twin that lived was a demon who possessed the mom. The stories she told about their treatment were brutal. Like these people don't suffer enough because of said persons actions!
A very interesting Video 👌🏻👍🏻
Very interesting article. Had no idea of any of this until now
I find it hard to hear what is being said, and even closed captioning can't decipher what is being said at the speed of light. Take your time so we can understand what's being said.
I changed the playback speed in settings. If tap on the video, a cog wheel icon will pop up in top right corner. Click on it, then playback speed & choose which speed is best for you. I went with 0.75
Did you get that thumbnail from certain imageboard?
There’s a part of my brain that wants someone to create a sitcom called “The Hitlers”. Make the cast of the show super diverse. The twisted image I have in my head makes me laugh!😂
Wow. Great job Simon.
The fact that William Patrick took the surname Stuart-Houston is another weird twist. Houston Stewart Chamberlain was a ultra far right anglo-german author and anti-semite, and one of Hitler’s main sources of inspiration..
Glad someone else caught that! Chamberlain, along with Wagner both pushed the same idealoghy.
the director
I must commend the entire team for not succumbing to the tempetation of naming any surviving relatives of Hitler.
It's a fact that they are relatives, and that is easily discoverable through a search on the internet. However, it takes a superiour understanding of the human condition to know not to just freely divulge such sensitive facts about a fellow human, especially not in this age of eager age of cancel culture.
Famouse people are 'canceled' and for some definable action/statement etc which is seen as over the line, and in the strictest sense only people who were previously supportive can 'cancel' aka they are canceling their support, an already estabished detractor can't cancel. If your a nobody who hasn't done anything and your identifying info is spread that it's just called Doxing. And frankly it's a very low bar for a video to cross to not engage in Doxing.
Cancel culture isn't real.
Thank you!
it would be good if this video included a family tree popping up throughout to make it easier to follow all the names
That thumbnail

Great video. But what does it have to do with After-School Tea Time ?
I finally figured out how to watch your videos all the way through. Watch at .75x speed. It’s a little too slow but it’s easier to hear the details.
Simon should do a video on the Principality of Sealand if he hasn't already.
he has on a different chanel geo something unfortunately i can’t remember but just look up sealand history and it should come up ! my family just purchased baron/baroness titles from there and it’s extremely interesting finding out about its history!
Why?
@@marcpeterson1092 Oh. Boy. You had to be the one to ask the stupid single-word question.
Here goes: Sealand has an extremely intriguing story. The Principality of Sealand is an unrecognized micronation on HM Fort Roughs (also known as Roughs Tower), an offshore platform in the North Sea approximately 12 kilometres off the coast of Suffolk, England. Roughs Tower is a Maunsell Sea Fort that was built by the British in international waters during World War II. Since 1967, the decommissioned Roughs Tower has been occupied and claimed as a sovereign state by the family and associates of Paddy Roy Bates. Bates seized Roughs Tower from a group of pirate radio broadcasters in 1967 with the intention of setting up his own station there. Bates and his associates have repelled incursions from vessels from rival pirate radio stations and the U.K.'s royal navy using firearms and petrol bombs. Since 1987, when the United Kingdom extended its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles, the platform has been in British territory.
@@PrimericanIdol Well, yeah. I mean, why would anyone be interested just because you say so.
@@PrimericanIdol I suggested a subject once and provided a link to a magazine article which explained the subject and why it was interesting. Not sure it was because of me, but he did a video on it soon after.
I don't like to be critical as I enjoy your videos but lately you seem to be talking faster or my brain is slowing down. I've had to resort to setting the playback speed down.
He's said in other videos recently he's behind on recording so he's probably subconsciously rushing
It is 30 mins at that speed. If read slow it might be up to 45 mins. You can slow the playback speed without affecting the sound quality too much.
Yo that thumbnail is incredible
this was a major undertaking, but very good! TY. Mr Whistler
“Meet the Hitler’s” should be a television show.
A comedy show
There was a pilot..."Heil honey I'm home."
You're welcome.
I vote Erika for the theme song. Sorry Funkerlied fans. And Panzerlied and Horst Wessel song fans.
SIMON. SIR. What is that thumbnail ☠️ Immediately give whoever is responsible a raise
Such Incredible History. Thank You So Much Sir ✅. Aloha Nui Loa 🌸✈️🇺🇸
I could take several history classes with Simon as the Professor.
You did it, you made the greatest thumbnail of all time.
The background music should be ふわふわタイム！
@@ShikataGaNai100 That melody is still stuck in my head
Every time I think I understand just how evil Stalin was I learn something like he told Hitler to KEEP HIS OWN SON!
Oh goody! I've been wondering this stuff!
I remember a TV programme that finds the children of höss and other camp comanders and talk to them. One was the great grandson of Roudolph Höss, who said his dad used to say looking through the gate to the camp was like looking through the gate of hell.
10/10 Thumbnail 😅😂
wow dude don't drag k-on into this lmao
Never in my life I thought of Simon in the same thumbnail with a moeblob anime...but here it is.... I'm putting it and check it out of my bucket list of things I wanna see in life now....
There’s an old British sitcom called “Heil honey I’m home” where it stars Hitler and Eva Braun living in the UK doing regular sitcom antics. Cancelled after one episode. It’s quite wild.
I assume most of the family did not change their last name.
But what if.....Adolph had been successful as a painter?
Might as well wish that the Archduke's driver had not made a wrong turn in 1914.
Thumbnail is so fucking funny holy shit
This was very interesting.
That thumb nail is legendary Simon hahahaha
I have a popsicle headache 5min in. I’m gonna need a whiteboard and marker
The thunbnail is a leaked photo from agartha in 1946
Now that is a thumbnail lol. Wicked
I despise those that use any form of violence on their loved ones.
It's a betrayal so repugnant it robs victims of future happiness too, and perpetuates the cycle violence as it shapes the psychology of the young that are raised in that inviroment.
I wish humans had a greater sense of responsibility towards future generations and the stability of society.
