What it boils down to so far for me is that Hitler is, after all, the soul of present-day Germany—which is self-evident when you’re there; that the Germans can’t be allowed to rule Europe because they have some kind of mass mental distortion, despite their brilliance, and can’t even rule themselves; and that when they try for mastery, somebody’s got to beat the living daylights out of them or you’ll have barbarism triumphant.
