I'm assuming the context is that a prominent US figure recently lamented never meeting hitler?

Anyway, wanting to meet him is such a pathetic wish, even for a nazi.

He's proof that great man theory is bullshit. He was just a grifter who positioned himself at the right time to take power, propped up by members of his own party.

He wasn't a master rhetorician, he didn't give magical speeches, he didn't win the war. Fuck, he couldn't even paint worth a damn.

Wishing to have a conversation with Hitler is like wishing to have a conservation with any reactionary grifter who blames his shortcomings on other people. You're not going to learn anything.

It reminds me of that meme where they say talking to a billionaire for one hour is worth more than a million dollars. Just people so disconnected from reality.
