A not so well known fact: Hitler visited America and it was the American solutions to the Native American problem that inspired Hitler's solutions to the Jew problem. He just executed them more efficiently (pun accepted).


this is way too overblown and deterministic a view. US history was one of many inspirations.


I thought it was the Turkish genocide of the Armenians?

Hitler was also inspired by Sparta, maybe other societies too.


He definitely wrote with admiration about US treatment of native and black people
