This is absurd. The result of the Germans failing to stop Hitler was a war that lead to about 70 million casualties, a genocide, years of oppression of the German people. Oh, but its worth it because it taught the German people that freedom needs to be defended. News flash, a pretty decent portion of population already knew that, and currently, people are forgetting the lesson again.
Oh this is a hot take. I don't typically hear about "the Germans failing to stop Hitler". Failing implies there is a successful path. Can we institute, in American, what you perceive as the correct course of action the Germans should've taken? (one which still follows democracy without violence I'm hoping)
Also the person above never said it was "worth it", it's a sad truth that you sometimes don't know how much something matters till you lose it? It's literally your last couple of words you've parroted "people are forgetting the lesson again". The lesson...... of how much it matters and you don't want to lose it...
