They were obviously a few in the bunker with hitler, probably meant to hand him a banana but accidentally gave him his gun. Probably not worth mentioning in the movies

I'd rather the minions be responsible for killing Hitler than the asshole that got all the credit in the real world.
That explains why most boomers love minions memes.
That was a period of Great Minion Divide, where half of them supported Hitler and the other half Stalin. It worked out well until 1941 and then things got... complicated.
What about the Hirohito and Britains Colony Garrison Minion divide groups?

So I remember this was already brought up and there was a Twitter post saying that the minions didn't serve Hitler.
Then the implication was that meant Hitler wasn't evil or something.
This is just what I saw, I hate Hitler, I hate Nazis and I have never watched a movie with these minions. My daughter is 1 so I'm sure I'll see all the minion movies soon.
Correction: Apparently these minions were frozen during the 1930s and 1940s.. Good save to a Twitter post that didn't think of the implications
Maybe there was a villain worse than Hitler is some way?
Mussolini started the fascist movement and was doing some serious aura farming ,as the kids would say. Going for rebuilding the Roman Empire would be a serious Minion bait.
Hitler passed him in evilness and had a penchant for ridiculous super weapons. Some of the cockups they had could have been Minion level.
Stalin was neck and neck with Hitler for evil, murder, and conquest. However, I think by the time they turn his way, the Minions would have looked at all the purges, holodomor, etc and just decided to take a personal vacation until the CIA showes up.
From what little I could understand in the movies I think the minions tend to have somewhat of an upper limit on evil? Like they're fine with stealing and destroying property but seem genuinely scared when people are murdered, so I guess no they wouldn't be Nazi. Not to mention how generally chaotic and hard to manage they are, not exactly dictatorship friendly
Dangit... I am hoping that isn't in the Minions timeline, I guess? Ugh.
Or catholic priests...
The Church got away with a lot in WWII, the President of Slovakia was a priest and that country was the one that killed most jews proportionally.
Lets, not forget either that the biggest monstrosity of WWII was the religious cleansing, who had a beef with the Jews?
I rest my case.
I don't understand the whole hating the Jews thing.
Had they not killed Jesus, his story would be worthless. They made him a martyr. They're responsible for making Christianity in the first place
Oh wait now I understand.
Hating a minority is a theme showing up in politics, every time a society had a downturn.
Jews were scapegoats, they were generally seen as greedy and thrifty. So when the economy went to shit, the workers blamed an ethnic group associated with being successful business people.
The hate for Muslims went up a lot in the aftermath of the 08 crisis. Although the reasons for problems tends to be greed among the elites, they also tend to control the narrative. And will throw a minority under the bus to save themselves
the religious cleaning from the comie was an horor for sure.
