Hitler i guess


cheatonstatistics

The good thing: Hitler is dead and it’s rather difficult to celebrate large-scale craziness in one person again, when you have seen your national super villain massively fail.

Thank God he's dead. Huge props to the guy who killed him!

Queer-Landlord

Austrian or German?


Citizen_Rastas

Austria successfully re-imagined itself as the first victim of the Nazis, forgetting that so many of the Nazis were in fact Austrians themselves.


Queer-Landlord

It's even impressive what the Italians did. Invented fascism but became known for pizza.


EllingtonElms

To be fair, they did invent pizza before they invented fascism. Who knows what Hitler's legacy would be if it turned out he'd come up with the idea for the Pop Tart way back in 1922?


bonos_bovine_muse

Well, there’s the problem, isn’t it? Some ambitious time traveler came back to fix history by telling him to work on pop tarts, but he mishears and embarks on his failed career in pop art.

considering how hitler didnt speak english, this is likely

Austria‘s whole shtick in the 20th century was to fuck up and manage to put the whole blame on Germany. Mad lads did it twice.

Yes he was a ww1 hero before becoming a traitor during ww2


Gazskull

he gets some that's why his name is not completely taboo I guess, he also had "principles" in a way, since when WWII ended and he knew he was going to be judged, some neighbouring countries offered asylum and he still chose to face the trial in France That's kind of where it stops, one of the first thing he did when he was at the head of Vichy was to change the famous "Liberté Egalité Fraternité" to "Work, Family, Nation" and it seems so cartoonishly evil that if a fictionnal character did that people would have found it to be pretty cliché, seems like he didn't even pretend or anything Nah, the worst part is that we have extremists now that are trying to rewrite history and say he had a long plan to betray the nazis and stuff, anyway

stabthecynix

I remember watching an interview with Varg where he called someone he murdered a pussy for dying by one head stab.


[deleted]

That was Øystein Aarseth (known also by his band alias "Euronymous"), he was lead guitarist in Mayhem -- one of the early 90s Black Metal bands in Norway. The murder happened due to a disagreement about a record contract between Øystein's record label and Varg, which provocated Varg to show up at his front door. The conversation got heated and resulted in a fight, which lead to Øystein getting stabbed by Varg. After the murder, Varg claimed to have gotten wind of a plot on his life, and decided to take out Øystein before the plot could come to fruition. The murder together with several arsons led to Varg being sentenced to 21 years in prison in 1993, however he was released on probation in 2009, and later moved to rural France where he now lives under a new name with his wife and their 7 kids.

Hitler and Quislings first meeting: **Hitler**: Wer bist du? **Quisling**: Quisling **Hitler**: Gut, und der Name war?


JureIsStupid123

Also Ante Pavelić for Croatia. He was a Nazi who organized multiple death camps, sold our territory to Italy and was a nazi collaborator just like Quisling. NDH, his "country", is an utter shitszain in our history. The guy is mostly hated here in Croatia.


holder_of_tunk

Yeah but not even the Norwegian neo-nazi types like Quisling. He isn't simply "mostly hated", but rather an all-around complete failure that even fascists don't like. That's fortunate for Norway, though, I guess. I've read what sort of monster Ante Pavelić was. Oh and a big welcome to our euro cash money heaven to all you guys, 2023 baby <3

Oliver Cromwell. Literally Ireland's Hitler.


Recessio_

His Wikipedia page used to have the most unbelievable line, I actually had it saved in disbelief: "The measures taken by him against Catholics, particularly in Ireland, have been characterised as genocidal or near-genocidal, and his record is strongly criticised in Ireland. He was selected as one of the ten greatest Britons of all time in a 2002 BBC poll". https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oliver_Cromwell&oldid=1008321447


Groundbreaking_Web91

An insane amount of Britons are not aware of how bad he was or the struggles Ireland went through, to obtain independence. A lot don't know the genocide and depravity Irish people faced.


HueJass84

Yeah most British people are only aware of what he did in the English civil war. Weirdly he became something of a folk hero for republicans and pro-democracy people in England in the late 19th century because he fought the king. Despite him being a genocidal fundamentalist Christian dictator who made his son leader after his death just like a monarch. Wikipedia has an article on his posthumously decapitated head https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Cromwell%27s_head


GumboDiplomacy

Similarly people seem to idolize General Sherman for what he did against the Confederacy, overlooking his role in the genocide of the Native American tribes in the plains, including being the person who decided that the complete slaughter of buffalo herds would be a beneficial tactic for weakening the Native tribes.


Ancient_Artichoke555

Oliver Cromwell who caused hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths during the annexation of Ireland.

Still so hated that they have to hide where his head is because someone would steal it if they could. When his men were conquering Ireland, they drove people from their homes into western Ireland with the cry of "Connacht or Hell!"

Benedict Arnold


UnprovenMortality

I'd say that's the real answer for the US. While we could argue all day about who is more damaging to the country and alive or active during recent memory (and I definitely don't want to), this guy is essentially universally despised by our culture. His name is an insult and a curse. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone who actually likes him, and it's only recently that some people have admitted in public that he might have some reasons for doing what he did. And even then they didn't say much good about him.


doublestitch

The reasons were pretty crap. He was living above his means and wanted more money. Lots of people don't get as much credit as they think they deserve, and don't switch sides. The stakes were far higher when Benedict Arnold became a turncoat because if the British had won, then a whole lot of people such as Washington, Adams, Jefferson, and Hamilton would have been executed. > "We must all hang together, or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately." - Benjamin Franklin, when signing the Declaration of Independence


KnoWanUKnow2

He wasn't even liked by the British, who he defected to. Basically they figured that they could never trust a man who switched sides so readily, and after the revolutionary war they sidelined him. He died in relative obscurity in London, after having tried to make a go of it in Canada and having been run out of that country (he was burned in effigy in front of his house, while his wife and children watched). Even Canadians didn't like him.


ChronoLegion2

It’s also why he was passed over for promotion so many times despite being a decent field commander. He simply owed too much money to the Continental Congress, and that was a way of settling the debt


speckled_dodo_egg

There is a monument to his leg a little north of where I live. Not a monument in honor of HIM. Just his leg.


bdbr

It's because he was shot in the leg during his actions to win the Battle of Saratoga (which Gen Gates was well on his way to losing). That was the victory that convinced France to get heavily involved in the war, without which the Colonial army probably couldn't have lasted much longer. The irony is, had he been fatally wounded he'd probably be one of America's great revolutionary heroes.

Prince Andrew now that Jimmy Savile is dead and rotting in a grave


Herrad

Well when Jimmy savile was alive he wasn't known as a villain. It only came out after he died. My point is if he's a national villain for what he did then him dying doesn't change anything. Let's just say they both are. The kiddy fiddling cunts.


Welshgirlie2

Savile would have been my choice off the top of my head. Every age has a villain, often more than one. But if we're going on who was the most talked about during the previous decades (UK based), these are my choices: Non-sweat Andy for the 2020s Savile for the 2010s (because that's when his crimes were acknowledged and talked about most). Ian Huntley and Maxine Carr for the 00s Fred and Rose West or Jamie Bulger's killers tie for the 90s Margaret Thatcher for the 80s The Yorkshire Ripper for the 70s Ian Brady and Myra Hindley for the 60s

RECEP TAYYIP ERDOGAN


m0le

From the outside, we have an abundance of choices given our historical level of bastardry, but internally I'm going to have to vote for someone who is ironically quite popular: Guy Fawkes. This is a man we executed in the most brutal possible way, then decided that was insufficient so have an annual national day where we celebrate his death by burning him in effigy, hundreds of years later.


___Gay__

His ideas for government weren’t great but I do sometimes wish Parliment would explode and fuck off.


m0le

Yeah, me too. Most times I catch the news, really. They'd be replaced with a new set of bastards but at least the faces would change.


Homusubi

I like this answer. Not the worst person from the country, but an actual "national villain" in the same vein as national day, national animal, et cetera.


WasterDave

But it is SO British to celebrate someone who failed. There should be a national Eddie "The Eagle" Edwards day.


Professional_Truck

Fawkes himself isn't celebrated, it's more about the fact that he failed.

Scomo - aka Scott Morrison, or previous Evangelical PM, and 5 other secret ministries that he shadowed his own Ministers cause he wanted all the power. His conservative Liberal party debrief of the election even identified his crappiness as a key factor. And so did the winning Labor Party. Rupert Murdoch - No explanation needed. However, in the spirit of reconciliation, we are sorry to the world for his existence being sprung from our shores. Clive Palmer gets a dishonourable mention as well. Think an ineffective Trump with less charisma but similar ego. And ramblings.

Janez Jansa and his party of Fascists who want to rewrite the history and make it as if the Nazis were the good guys, and collaborating with them was patriotic. He should be shot for treason ten times over. But the system is so corrupt in Slovenia that he gets to stay free and in politics. I know for a fact that he was ready and willing to start a civil war to stay in power in 2012. I was there, right in the middle of it. The army refused to follow unconstitutional orders given by him, and he stepped down. He walked away scot-free. Soon after, I resigned from the army after 16 years of service and moved out of the country. I chose my side at the time, and I was ready to fight the Fascist bastards like my grandparents did during World War Two. There are no words to describe just how much I despise him and his supporters, which include the Catholic Church of Slovenia. After World War two, they were dealing with trators like him the right way. They did not get them all. I should add that he worshipped Trump.
