Was Hitler a vegeterian?

Apparently the feeble beast Hitler was a vegeterian according to a survey conducted by the Compton Police Department.

They have records of his shopping budget.

My basic questions is this, do you think being a vegeterian drove him to insanity, or was it that he was an angry kid?

 

He was born insane. And as insane people can do anything, he could have either a-eaten meat, or b-not eaten meat. So, its not a big deal to me

 

Yeah, Hitler had a lot of "good" things about him, if you actually read stuff regarding him.

It's just, the fact of the matter is, the dude was extremely misguided. He was probably born in an extremely conservative, strict family, and struggled to become a perfectionist (hence wanting only those who have blonde hair and blue eyes to exist) because he wasn't treated well as a child.

 

Although few people think about this, Hitler truely believed he was doing the world some good by ridding the world of Jews. He really thought he was helping. The problem of the matter was that he wasn't helping, and he was pretty insane.
Which is sad, in my opinion.

So I wouldn't actually be surprised if he was a vegetarian.

 

I don't think it mattered what he ate.....trying to pawn off his actions on a common diet is ignorant....

I have heard that he ate meat AND that he was a vegetarian. Either way, I'm not going to say "Like, omg...I eat meat and so did Hitler!!11!!! I MUST be a Nazi!!1!!"

The man is dead, move on.

 

if i remember correctly (but dont quote me on this) hitler was a veg for health reasons. he didnt do it because he liked animals...infact he even used animals in death experiments. he was a cruel person, veg or no veg.

an no, vegetarianism didnt drive him to insanity....

 

Hitler minimized his meat intake for health reasons, but he was not a vegetarian. According the the housekeeper who fed him, he had a particular penchant for squab and sausages.

Oh, and Hitler was evil, not insane.

 

Yeah! Hitler was an evil genius, of course his upbringing came into it, his father (i read somewhere that he was his step-father?) treated him appalingly. Hitler had really wrong ideas. He probaby was a veggie, we're all geniuses if you think about it!

 

i heard the vegetarian thing was hitler's way to be more appealing and more "kind" in how some viewed him. publicity stunt to make him more... gentle in appearence.

 

evil will use what is good to try to turn more people to support them and then give the good things that actually are a bad name.

 

I read the first two posts and they are both wrong.

Hitler had a troubled youth, his father beat him badly, the only woman in his life died (either his mother or niece, I'm not sure which). He was rejected from art school, he blamed Jews, but he wasn't completely insane at that point, just mentally ill. His illness got worse, and eventully he ended up with that doctor who gave him drugs that are considered illegal in the United States now every day.

Hitler was a genius, he was a phonomenal public speaker, but he was insane (mentally ill), and drugged with amphetamines on a daily basis.

Hitler conducted some pretty cruel experiments on the Jews, and I wouldn't be suprised if he used animals.

Hitler chewed carpet when he was angry, I wouldn't be suprised if he didn't or did eat meat. Being a vegitarian doesn't drive you insane.

I think to some extent it was societies fault that Hitler ended up the way he did. Somebody should have done something about the child abuse he recieved as a child. Even though he was a weirdo personality wise, a schiziod, if people weren't so judgemental, then he might of had one friend, who could have said "Its not the Jews fault" and put Hitler on a different path.

I think Hitler was insane and a monster, but the cause of all evil is peoples greed and their belief that they can judge people and act upon them based on whatever criteria they want.

Unnacceptable criteria would be anything using an adjective, but we have to have adjectives to identify people who commit crimes agianst the law of nature, and those people are greedy.

Thus

All evil comes from greed.

 

Hard for me to say this, seein as mine was one of the first two posts...but woah, what a bloody good post from you green Everyone listen to green...

I dont believe people are ever "evil"...as you quite rightly said, people are corrupted by others and by society...which philosopher was it who said that?...hmm...

Xx

 

Hitler went vegetarian after his niece commit suicide cos he meat reminded him of her corpse. That was fairly late into his life so that's probably why there's a lot of information about him liking blood pudding and sausages etc.

While we're on the subject of old Adolf, does anyone else have a grudging respct for him? Going from a tramp on the streets of Vienna to conquering most of mainland Europe is a pretty impressive feat isn't it?

 

No. Recognizing that he had skills and acomplishments is far different from respect. The evil that people do is limited by their abilities. Unfortunatly, Hitler had a great deal of political ability and was able to do great evil.

 

he was in a pretty decent (class- and money- wise) family considering the state of germany in his youth. he became a poor homeless guy off his own account. if you want to respect someone because they gained control of a country then respect the chinese peasant who overthrew the chinese government, you have about 7 to choose from.
