'Evil doesn't become evil in one day. It grows..'

<blockquote>'..Hitler is not just an absolute monster from the history books, unfortunately before Hitler turned into this monster, he was a well respected politician .. read Toronto Star in 1935 or 1936. Read The Globe and Mail or Washington Post. Hitler was on the cover of Time Magazine. We heard the same arguments today about Putin. Evil doesn't become evil in one day. It grows..

..

..more than anything else I wanted Russia to be engaged and I believe .. eventually Russia will become part of this future, a bright future for the human race but not Putin's Russia. Putin's Russia is a virus..

Adolf Hitler.. every dictator is popular .. there is no opposition in a fascist state .. Boris Nemtsov .. he [was] murdered..'

- Gary Kasparov (Source, April 10, 2015)</blockquote>


'Hitler, Mises said, wouldn't tolerate gatherings of intellectuals who might someday become his opponents.'

<blockquote>'Mises was at a garden tea party in September 1932, at a meeting of the Society for Social Policy (Verein für Sozialpolitik), in Bad Kissingen, Germany, when he suddenly asked those assembled, "Do you realize that we are gathered together for the last time? Hitler's rise to power will put an end to such meetings as this." At first the members of Mises's audience were aghast at his remark. Then they laughed! Mises continued: "Hitler will be in office in 12 months."

The others present thought that unlikely. "But even so," they asked, "even if Hitler does come to power, why shouldn't the Society meet again?" Hitler, Mises said, wouldn't tolerate gatherings of intellectuals who might someday become his opponents.

Hitler came to power in Germany in March 1933, about six months after the Society's September meeting. As Mises had anticipated, the Society did not meet again until after the end of World War II.'
