great attention to detail
Hitler followed a vegetarian diet, not a vegan diet.
He was also prescribed a meat-free diet by his doctor and it was useful for his public image to show himself as loving animals, so it's highly debated how much of it might have been from some genuine moral conviction.
Not least, because it would make no fucking sense when he's slaughtering people in the millions at the same time.

didnt dietician also prescribe him questionable drugs
Oh yeah, when I double-checked my information for the above comment, I also ran across this section, which is kind of wild (Hitler was clean-edge in some disciplines, while not at all in others):
Hitler stopped drinking alcohol around the time he became vegetarian [...] He was a non-smoker for most of his adult life, but smoked heavily in his youth (25 to 40 cigarettes a day); he eventually quit, calling the habit "a waste of money". [...] Hitler began using amphetamine occasionally after 1937 and became addicted to it in late 1942. Speer linked this use of amphetamine to Hitler's increasingly erratic behaviour and inflexible decision-making (for example, rarely allowing military retreats).
Prescribed 90 medications during the war years by his personal physician, Theodor Morell, Hitler took many pills each day for chronic stomach problems and other ailments. He regularly consumed amphetamine, barbiturates, opiates, and cocaine, as well as potassium bromide and atropa belladonna
Ah I see the problem. Too low dose of atropa belladonna
Classic leftist infighting. /s
They west certainly won't, still salty (especially those Balts).

Can someone please forgive my ignorance and explain why is Mussolini upside down? Thanks
following his execution on April 28th, 1945, his body was hung upside down from a girder in the middle of Piazzale Loreto in Milan for people to insult, throw things at, etc etc
TIL, thanks
No problem, it's because he was hung upside down after being shot to death by a communist Italian partisan
TIL, thanks
A bit off topic, but where could I apply for a position as an Italian?
I do not have any relevant experiences in that job, but have been to Italy once (plus once for a few hours 20 years ago). Maybe that helps.
That's more than most people in the US who call themselves italian. You're hired.
Lmao
As an American with Italian ancestry 3rd generation on fathers side, I speak passable Italian, have been to Italy once and agree he is just as qualified as anyone else haha.
I nominate this guy as well
As a African Danish mixed with German and Russian heritage plus 6 years of experience in China and 7 years in India I also agree
It is a country of taste and culture and should be careful who to let in.
americans, germans will be arrested by the style police and immediately deported.
Under the extreme-right Meloni they have expanded their ICE (Italian Culture Esthetics) organization.
I made a pizza last week. I also ate some sphagetti.
