Carl Jung once made the tragically accurate statement that Hitler was akin to the mouthpiece of the collective unconscious for the German people.
It is more common to think — as well as nicer to think — that Hitler was simply a madman run amok on Germany and that his influence alone spoke for all of Nazism in its crazed, manic, ruthless aspects. “He was evil,” people say, their eyes widened, their heads shaking in disbelief, and they leave it at that.
