I’ll definitely grant Nazis didn’t have to happen, but baby Hitler isn’t a likely strong hinge point.

Replying to @dgardner
Thank you! The tension between contingency of history and structural factors is quite interesting, and maybe goes to the Game of Thrones point: you need space to make it. (More episodes!)

As someone who has both read a fair amount about and also watched many dramas about rise of fascism in Germany, I’m always struck by how much the TV/movie stuff focuses on Hitler, and sometimes makes him a bumbling idiot to boot. That’s my bee in the bonnet.
