Adolf Hitler (not)
Hitlerism, also known as Adolf Hitler Thought, refers to the ideology and policies associated with Adolf Hitler, the leader of the 
National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP), commonly known as the Nazi Party. This doctrine encompasses a range of beliefs and principles that guided Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945, during Hitler's dictatorship. He is known for being the predecessor and leader of the Nazis. He is also seen as a sub-ideology of 
Nazism.
Hitler is an extremely controversial character, he is often portrayed as a man of pure evil. Due to this, he often appears (and is overused) in “dark humor”, 
political satires, and many other internet pop culture.
History
Early on, Hitler was found of the idea of 
German nationalism, though he himself is an 
Austrian.
Adolf Hitler’s rise to power began with his joining the 
German Workers' Party (DAP) in 1919. Impressed by the party's 
nationalist and 
anti-Semitic ideas, Hitler quickly rose within its ranks due to his oratory skills and propaganda talents. By 1921, he had become the leader of the newly renamed National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP or Nazi Party). His initial attempt to seize power through the 1923 Beer Hall Putsch failed, leading to his imprisonment. During his brief time in prison, he wrote “Mein Kampf,” outlining his ideology and future plans for 
Germany.
Upon his release in 1925, Hitler focused on rebuilding the Nazi Party and gaining power through legal political means. The Great Depression of 1929 significantly increased the party's support, as Hitler promised economic and political stability. By 1932, the Nazis were the largest party in the 
Reichstag (parliament), and in 1933, Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany. He quickly consolidated power, passing the Reichstag Fire Decree and the Enabling Act, which gave him dictatorial powers. By 1934, after the death of president 
Hindenburg, Hitler had merged the positions of chancellor and president, becoming the supreme leader of Germany.
Hitler's rule led to the aggressive expansion of the German Third Reich and the onset of World War II in 1939, starting with the invasion of 
Poland. His regime implemented the Holocaust, resulting in the mass extermination of six million 
Jews and millions of other persecuted groups. As the war turned against Germany, Hitler retreated to his Führerbunker in 
Berlin. Facing imminent defeat, he committed suicide on April 30, 1945. His death marked the end of the Nazi regime, and 
Germany surrendered shortly afterward, leaving a legacy of unprecedented destruction and horror.
Hitlerism would then be revived in 2024 when a
YouTube content slop creator, Masteroogwgay, amidst controversy, released the song "Adolf Hitler is My N*gga".
Beliefs
Racial Purity and Anti-Semitism 
Central to Hitlerism is the belief in the superiority of the 
Aryan race, particularly the Germanic peoples, and the inferiority of other races. This ideology justified the systemic persecution and extermination of Jews, whom Hitler and the Nazis scapegoated for Germany's problems and considered an existential threat.
Hierarchical Society 
Hitler was opposed to 
Marxism, 
Capitalism, and 
Democracy, viewing them as threats to the Nazi vision of a racially pure and 
hierarchically organized society. He believed that Marxism, particularly its focus on class struggle and internationalism, was a tool of 
Jewish influence aimed at undermining the 
German nation and Aryan race. Hitler's anti-Semitic worldview led him to equate Marxism with a Jewish conspiracy, which he sought to eradicate through aggressive policies and ultimately, the Holocaust.
Capitalism, in Hitler's eyes, was another manifestation of Jewish control, seen as promoting individualism, greed, and economic exploitation that destabilized the social order. While the Nazi regime tolerated and utilized capitalist structures to some extent, especially to fund its war machine and industrial growth, it did so under strict state control, ensuring that economic power aligned with the goals of the regime rather than the interests of private capital.
Democracy was rejected by Hitler as weak and decadent, incapable of providing the strong, unified leadership he deemed necessary for Germany's revival. He saw democratic governance as inherently corrupt and inefficient, diluting national strength by allowing diverse, and in his view, inferior elements to have a say in the nation's future. In place of democracy, Hitler promoted a 
totalitarian state where power was centralized in the Führer, with absolute authority to guide the nation toward its destiny of 
territorial expansion, 
racial purity, and 
military dominance.
Life in the society
If someone said something bad about or is a threat to Hitler or the Nazi Party, 
Gestapo (German secret police) and 
SS would attack and imprison them.
In schools, Hitler’s portrait is in every classroom’s wall. Mein Kampf is an official history book, and all teachers had to join the Nazi Party to be able to spread Nazi beliefs and indoctrinate students, as they learned to respect the Führer ( German word for leader).
In women’s society, they were all expected to give up on their jobs and look after their families. If they have 8 children, they would be awarded a medal. They are also supposed to wear traditional peasant clothes and flag shoes, they were not allowed to dye their hairs or smoke.
Economic Control and Autarky 
While not strictly an economic theory, Hitlerism included elements of state control over the economy to ensure it served the interests of the nation and the war effort. This involved policies aimed at achieving self-sufficiency (
Autarky) and the mobilization of resources for rearmament and military expansion.
Darwinism 
Hitler took many inspirations from 
Darwin's theory of 
evolution and appropriated it in shaping his racial Darwinist view of human history, though he wasn't familiar with Darwin until after 1923. Hitler believed that the 
pseudoscientific theory of the evolution of species justified his destructive and oppressive vision.
In Meme Culture
Kitlers
“Kitlers” are identified as white cats who have a black rectangle spot under their noses, which makes it look like Hitler’s mustache. Additionally, the cat may also have a black spot resembling Hitler’s hairstyle. Sometimes when Kitlers stretch their limbs, it looks like a Nazi salute.
The Man Who Killed Hitler
Various versions of this meme has taken form. Such as, 
God saying that “whoever kills Hitler goes to heaven”, which implies that Hitler went to heaven since he killed himself. Another version is on a basketball clip, where the rest of the world tries to shoot the ball in the hoop to kill Hitler but Hitler steals the ball and does it himself.
Life of Adolf Hitler
Hitler was born on 20 April, 1889. He had 3 older brothers, though they all died before he was born. His father was an alcoholic, and this behavior had a significant impact on the household, contributing to a difficult and often abusive family environment. Hitler’s mother had tried to protect him but she was too scared of his father. When Hitler was four, he got saved from drowning in the 
Inn River by a priest. Hitler also beated his teachers up and got expelled from many schools. Young Hitler was also very interested in German nationalism, despite being in 
Austria. When his father died, he had lived a good life with his mother. Sadly she died from breast cancer.
He dreamed of becoming an artist, so he joined in Academy of Art. But his master said that his painting isn’t good enough. He said that it lacked empathy and emotion. He got rejected from art school 2 times, making him deeply upset, as his artistic aspirations were crushed. Disillusioned and bitter, he turned to politics as a means to channel his frustrations and ambitions.
In 1913, Hitler moved to 
Munich, 
Germany, where he continued to struggle financially, working odd jobs and living in a men's hostel. When World War I broke out, he eagerly enlisted in the 
German Army, seeing the war as an opportunity to prove his worth and serve the nation he idolized. He served as a soldier on the Western Front and was wounded twice. Hitler was deeply affected by Germany’s defeat in 1918, and like many others, he felt betrayed by the German government, which he believed had stabbed the country in the back by signing the Treaty of Versailles.
In 1919, Hitler joined the German Workers' Party (DAP). He would meet and discuss things with other members at a beer bar. He quickly rose up the ranks and reformed the party to become the National Socialist German Workers' Party, or Nazi Party.
Trivia
- Hitler asked for a longer visor on his cap in order to protect his eyes from hyper photo sensibility.
- While Hitler is planning his next offensive, a fly annoys him. Furious at this pest, he demands one of his confidants to dispatch the fly. But the aide decided to crack a joke and says, "This is an airborne object. This is better handled by the
Luftwaffe." The aide is then sent to the Eastern Front. Hitler probably was just jealous of how good the joke was - In Hitler’s regime, it was made illegal to kill animals without euthanasia, and was illegal to boil live lobsters and crabs.
- Hitler was a vegetarian. He also cared for animal rights, something almost no one else cared for at the time. People who violate his laws on animal rights could be sent to concentration camps, so in a twisted way, Hitler treated animals like humans, and humans as animals.
