Do you believe everyone is equal?

I agree with everything you said except your comments on Hitler. He pulled them out of the slump by stealing all property from those he found undesirable and instilled national pride through scapegoating those same people, brainwashing the children, and scaring their parents if they stood in his way. Not exactly commendable actions. Hitler was a good public speaker. That's about the only quality for which he generally gets praise from anyone who is not a racist. His public speaking skills were legendary and rival those of the greatest historical speakers like Abraham Lincoln, Julius Caesar, and Martin Luther King. Of course he used that ability to nearly take over the world and slaughter millions, so we would have all been much better off if he hadn't been good at public speaking.
