Ricky Gervais Wouldn't Kill Baby Hitler

[chill doggie]

If I did that then my grandma would have a different nickname.
I’m on the fence.

Well you cant kill baby Hitler

Cos what if it's some new Conrad Durchdenwald instead who starts the Nazi party and is way more efficient and couldnt even give two fucks about invading the USSR and violating the Ribbontrop Pact

I thought this was an interesting scenario.

Given the opportunity.

What would you do, if you were to go back in time and given the orders to kill baby hitler.

Would you do it?

I wonder what history would be like if he was killed as a baby. Better or worse?

This reminds me of The Terminator film.

This is just another philosophical debate that's been going on for centuries.

"Would you murder one pure innocence to avoid a greater evil from occuring?"

I mean, we kill millions of inconvenient unborn children every year, right? 'We' being the human race.
Military actions result in 'collateral damage' which are acceptable, right?
Dictators genocide their own 'inconvenient' people by the tens of millions.
Some say Thantos was right.

So many examples of the deaths of innocents being excused, if not justified.

So, would I kill baby Hitler?
At that point, just being days, weeks, or months old... would Hitler really be Hitler?
So the question actually is 'Would I kill a baby?'
And the answer is no, I wouldn't.
I refuse to take a part in any unjustified murder under any circumstances, and I won't stain my soul.

Now, for child molesters, sex slavers, or other human fifth that don't deserve the dignity of a trial and formal execution? I'd go 'Law Abiding Citizen' on any of them, and leave their pieces in an unmarked shallow grave.

KIll baby Hitler? No. But try to influence him in a way that alters his path, sure.

War was already brewing...... Germany and Russia would've ended in war at some point...... Again.....

I'd grind them up into chum for sharks or fertilizer. Make them useful somehow.

I wonder if baby Hitler was ever used as a defense by a deranged baby killer in court.
