Julius Ceasar, Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan and many more…

These people had beliefs and worldviews that were so horribly, by today’s standards, that calling them fascist would be huge understatement. And they followed through by committing a lot of evil.

Aren’t we basically glorifying the Hitlers of centuries past?

I know, historians always say that one should not judge historical figures by contemporary moral standards. But there’s a difference between objectively studying history and actually glorifying these figures.

    That would be absolute horrible punishment to the person behind him in the centipede.

        Then he’d be eating his own ass, that’s hardly punishment

          I did not think of that aspect. But wouldn’t that just be the case in the human centipede too?
