Men are also the one who solved the problem.
Other Answers:
- No, nobody has to take blame for the actions of Hitler.
Accusing men of today for being the root cause of everything that went wrong with the society, is a shaming tactic used by a lot of Feminists. Just like how they blame "MRA's" for the women who died when the Titanic went down to sleep with the fishes. - Let's not forget many, many women in Germany supported Hitlers actions.
- People are pessimistic idiots sometimes:( they need someone to blame since they think they're too good to take any blame themselves.
- You don't have to and shouldn't take credit for either unless you deserve credit. Did you help Hitler or Einstein? No? Okay.
Anyone expecting men as a whole to take the blame for Hitler's evil-doings is crazy. Most people alive today had nothing to do with WWII or the Holocaust. - Ha go ahead and take credit for what einstein, graham, shakespeare and steve jobs did. Don't forget hitler, ted bundy Jeffrey, Dahmer, and slavery.
Edit: you're off 4 years. I'm 16. And of course I don't know everything. Guess what 1d stands for - Hitler was male, Christian and white.
Consequently, he is the archetype for the worst of the worst of white Christian males.
If somebody says you must be like XXX because you are female, then the reverse logic, you must be like Hitler becuase you are male crops up. It's equally (in)valid.
It also works when the argument is over being Christian or non Christian, or being White or not white.
EDIT: Yes, Hitler was male. He was also Christian and White. Whenever we need a Christian scapegoat, or a white scapegoat, he's convenient for that too.
I'm pretty sure he'd be useful as a scapegoat for people with bad mustaches and bad haircuts if need be.
It's lazy logic. For me, I usually use it as a flag for lazy logic: "I claim that saying because I am female I will be (unflattering characteristic)" is like saying "because you are male you will be like Hitler".
But no, people sometimes use it directly: "You have a cheezy mustache, therefore you are as bad as Hitler". - I rather take credit the things that I HAVE done, not people from way back in the day that are much more evil than me like Hitler, or intelligent than me like Einstein that happen to share my gender. Simply put, regardless of your gender, if you didn't do it, don't take credit for it. Nonetheless, if you feel better believing that you share the accomplishments that men have done throughout history just because you're a man, then that's your business, man. Whatever makes you feel good.
- Women dont just say 'All men are bad, look at hitler, look at bin laden, look at gaddafi!'
This would be a stupid argument point because even feminists can appreciate there are some good influential men out there.
Any women who use this as an argument need to update their facts and do their research. - it wasn't just Hitler who committed evil in Germany, you know that right? I think it was Goering? who made lampshades and other items of furniture out of human skin. It wasnt just "bad stuff" it was stuff that lead to Genocide. And we dont blame what happened in Germany 'because of masculinity' although you could argue it had a part to play. But lo and behold, if a woman in power committed atrocities on that scale, ya'll would be screaming "see, this is proof, women are evil". Ya'll would blame it on her woman hood.
