    Which is also why killing Hitler as a child is the correct way to prevent the Holocaust if you have a time machine. There's no way to make baby Hitler non-EVIL or keep him from acquiring power, but with EVIL Hitler gone, none of the bad things can happen!

      Material Conditions? What's that? Just kill baby Hitler lol and we'll all live happily ever after.

          Eh, a common feature of the "would you kill baby Hitler?" discussion is that maybe if you did, someone else would just take his place because (although this term is rarely used in this conversation) the material conditions demand it.

          Libs can intuit the right answer sometimes even if they can't accurately describe it. This is why theory is important -- it connects those dots.
