    Deciding that Musollini was like, a morally superior guy to Hitler is absurd. Hitler managed to do worse things but it's not like Musollini had the opportunity to do a holocaust and said 'no, that's a step too far for me, personally'. This is your brain on liberalized Great Man theory. It's applying pop psychology to a perfect sphere in a perfect vacuum. Fucking dolts

      Okay but totally chose to participate in the holocaust, so he did have the opportunity to do a holocaust and then said yes.

          I know what you meant, but his role in the holocaust is often downplayed. As are the crimes of Italy in East and North Africa.

      He kinda decided not to do a Jewish killing until it was a problem between him and Hitler, I have heard, but he also killed enough other people it doesn't fucking matter, plus at the end of the day he did do it
