    Had Crooks succeeded at the time, there may have been a martyr situation. Might have ended up worse.

        Weren’t the allies putting off Hitler assassinations due to fear of him being replaced by someone more competent?

          It’s not nonsense. It’s human nature. People are, in general, not different than their tribal ancestors from 300,000 years ago.

          The forces that create the environment for a Hitler to come to power are different than the personality cult that develops after the person is in power.

            When ever you see this, is guaranteed that whatever follows is baseless pseudoscience.

                Oh yeah, by all means, cite the peer reviewed biology papers showing that Great Man Theory is Evolutionary Biology, because, yes, “it’s evolutionary biology!” Is the number one catch phrase of people spouting baseless pseudo science.

                  You setup the strawman that I claimed it was Great man theory.

                  I specifically stated it wasn’t Great Man throry but you continue the strawman because you have no argument.

                  A cult leader isn’t a Great Man as described by Carlyle.

                    No, what I said is that it is Great Man Theory. And it is.

                    But I’m putting that all to the side, I want to see the sources for your scientific claims before anything else.

      You know what it wouldn’t have ended up as? What we have now.

      What’s the death toll at currently for innocent people?
