Oliver Stone’s ‘Secret History’ to put Hitler ‘in context’
James Hibberd - Jan 09, 2010
TCA — Director Oliver Stone’s upcoming Showtime documentary miniseries “Secret History of America” promises to put mass murderers such as Stalin and Hitler “in context.”
“Stalin, Hitler, Mao, McCarthy — these people have been vilified pretty thoroughly by history,” Stone told reporters at the Television Critics Association’s semi-annual press tour in Pasadena.
“Stalin has a complete other story,” Stone said. “Not to paint him as a hero, but to tell a more factual representation. He fought the German war machine more than any single person. We can’t judge people as only ‘bad’ or ‘good.’ Hitler is an easy scapegoat throughout history and its been used cheaply. He’s the product of a series of actions. It’s cause and effect … People in America don’t know the connection between WWI and WWII … I’ve been able to walk in Stalin’s shoes and Hitler’s shoes to understand their point of view. We’re going to educate our minds and liberalize them and broaden them. We want to move beyond opinions … Go into the funding of the Nazi party. How many American corporations were involved, from GM through IBM. Hitler is just a man who could have easily been assassinated.”

Stone’s a Nietzsche disciple of the first order so it makes sense that he’d tell us we must not judge people as “bad” or “good.” “Beyond good and evil”, etc, etc. And, of course, Nietzsche was a significant influence on the Nazis, despite how much modern academia protests his innocents, so this all fits together quite nicely.

DON’T be set-up by the latest, BOGUS round of
Hitler revisionism ‘controversy’.
FACT IS son of Wall Street, fomer Yalie, Oliver Stone
is, in this, reading from exactly the same denial strategy
playbook as our BOGUS ‘America Firster’ and fulltime RED China
biz nihilist coverman and apologist Pat Buchanan.
TRUTH IS it isn’t even REALLY about the LONG dead and gone
Hitler at all –but rather about ‘preparing’ the global
conscience for the ‘no questions asked’ acceptance of a
far MORE awesome icon of ‘peacetime’ genocide from ACROSS
the Pacific. -Guess who?
And BTW, we we the ONLY ones who’re noticing
that GENUINE veteran ‘Man of Conscience’ Oliver Stone
is, again, obediently ‘overlooking’ the staggeringly
important, urgently relevant 60th Anniversary of the
STILL unfolding KOREAN WAR —this year?
Son of Wall Street —-and how!
LOL
