Where did you read I was criticizing B16 for being a Hitler youth? All I said was that his - definitely forced - stint there gave him the experience to deal with fascist authoritarian figures.
B16 should be at the receiving end of many criticisms - not least of which choosing to be part of, and ultimately lead a disgusting religious cult. But being forced to join the Hitler Youth is not one of them.
