Die nationalsozialistischen Verbrechen wurden immer wieder gerne auf H.s Psyche,
Wohl weil 1) H's implizierter 'Erlaubnis' bzw. Nichteinschreitung dafuer sprach 2) kombiniert mit einer gewissen Rohheit im nationalen Charakter wie er sich in beiden WKgen ueberdeutlich manifestiert hatte. (oder durch vorgeschriebenes preussisches Militaerverhalten eingeimpft wurde ?!)
eine SS voller sadistischer Triebtäter und einen mehr oder weniger weit gefassten Kreis von Nazi-Größen reduziert.
Zu mindesten eine Teilerklaerung an der nichts 'falsch' ist. Was sagt Goldhagen dazu?
Aber weder war H. psychisch krank,
Unfassbar!
"[..]the collective racial unconsciousness of the German people. Hitler was the focal point of their repressed longings, a saviour and god, symbolic of their repressed longings and ambition. The Germans had a psychosis which was expressed in the psychology of their leader, reiterating comments made in the past by Bishop Butler and Heinrich Heine. Hitler’s personality was therefore only the prominent and ugly symptom of the disease from which the nation suffered." [1]

"In a strong psychoanalytic framework, Fromm (1973) labeled Hitler a nonsexual necrophilous character and malignant aggressor. He viewed Hitler as having a malignant form of the anal character determined by an increase in narcissism, unrelatedness to others, and destructiveness. "
"In the present study, academicians who had published books or articles about Hitler were chosen to evaluate Hitler by completing the informant version of the CATI. On Axis I of the DSM-IV, it was hypothesized that
Hitler would be diagnosed with schizophrenia, paranoid type. This hypothesis was based upon his frequent preoccupation with delusions of persecution (e.g., by his disapproving father, those unwilling to recognize his “talents,” and Jewish protagonists), and grandiosity (e.g., fantasies of unlimited success and recognition, his “prophesies”, etc.), his early academic/interpersonal/occupational dysfunction, his extremely virulent and paranoiac delusions about Jews, and his debatable grandiose delusion at Pasewalk.
Hitler’s callous disregard for human life would make it highly likely that he would be diagnosed with antisocial and sadistic personality disorders. His persistent sense of self-importance and entitlement makes it likely that he would have had a narcissistic personality disorder. His preoccupation with Jews as Germany’s antagonists and his irrational beliefs of Jewish disease contagion
makes it likely he also had a paranoid personality disorder." [2]

"The object of this book is not to prove that Adolf Hitler was insane. So much is obvious, both intuitively and from a clinical perspective. Nevertheless the reasons for arriving at such a conclusion will be reiterated and enlarged upon. Instead, the aim of the author is to discover what light Hitler's associates were able to shed on the personality and modus operandi of the Fuhrer, and to determine the extent to which they (and indeed, Hitler himself) realized that their leader was insane. The aim is also to investigate the cause of his insanity." [3]
noch in der SS auffallend viele sadistische Triebtäter.
Das ist relativ. Im Grunde genommen eine Wiederholung / Fortsetzung der in 1914/15 in Belgien begangenen Graeultaten.
Nicht einmal alle am Holocaust beteiligten Täter waren überzeugte Antisemiten und/oder Nazis. Manche haben "nur" funktioniert, andere wollten die Kameraden nicht mit der "Drecksarbeit" alleine lassen.
Stimmt.
