What are effective arguments in challenging the 'Hitler was the embodiment of all evil' straw man/ad hominem argument in academia? First, you need to discuss Holohoax and Weimar, but what other arguments would you suggest to provide, /pol/ (other than he loved doggos and animal life).

Yes, he made bad tactical decisions during wartime and a lot of Whites and Europeans were killed. But was that all really his doing? After all, who funded Hitler (American capitalists, right?)

And what about 'paragons of virtue', like Martin Luther King, Jr., or Mother Theresa. I understand Christopher Hitchens talked shit about Theresa and MLK watched a woman get raped, no? Plus MLK was a tool for the Jews to bring forth Tikkun Olam in the U.S. and West

The only academics whose opinion on the nature of evil matter are philosophers, and philosophers don't believe in "evil" anymore.

There really isn't much to say other than all ideologies struggling to survive in modernity have required and still require armed soldiers to impose their ideas through violence.

All ideas require violence, this is a simple truth, the only reason Hitler stands out is because his ideas + communism were on the road to cause a world revolution, ultimately it failed as the brother revolutions devoured one another and then the capitalist vultures descended to feast on their corpses, nowadays, we are living in the modern dark ages, much as it was when Rome fell and the princely states devolved into barbarian forms of government, likewise, capitalism has managed to manifest for itself an extension of it's own life, it will endure until the next revolutionary cycle, maybe 100 years? maybe less
