Pro-Hitler? No. Anti-semitic? Possibly. Phenomenally stupid? Absolutely.

We all have impulses to cruelty, and Hitler and the Nazis joyfully gave theirs free rein. When someone declares people sub-human, confiscates their property, murders them en masse, including children, harvests their fillings, makes people dig their own mass grave, etc., etc., etc., you don't look back on that with a shrug and say, "Well, he meant well."
