Seuss, Dr.
Dr Seuss art, based on John Cudahy's interview with Hitler from May 23, 1941
The original interview: https://books.google.ee/books?id=jUwEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA34&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false
Extra context clues for the interview, important to keep in mind:
(1) The battle of britain had happened half a year before this
(2) Greece was just conquered and occupied a month ago by combined italian and german forces.
(3) Operation Barbarossa was about to begin in less than 30 days
(4) Remembering the way America conquered Japan during WW2, was not with a full-out ground invasion, it was with a little magic weapon, that allowed them not to spend a decade of invasion across an entire ocean. This is relevant to a quite few paragraphs of the interview. (see also: effectiveness of D-Day, several cross-pacific invasions, allied invasion of Italy, as extra points related to the same paragraphs)
Deflect, Deny, Dampen. Reword anything horrible in the exact same but softer.
My favorite is that hitler wants the literal EU of today but significantly worse, one that's hyper-militarized and with slave labour from the surrounding lands. There's a ten different quotes i'd love to mention, but honestly reading that interview itself is incredibly more insightful.
And the pictures describing each backstab hitler did in minor detail, as the interview is on the same pages. Absolute cherry on the icecream sunday.
