Shitting on Hitler

God damn it.  Seriously, whats offensive about a picture of Hitler?  Its not like I wrote "THIS GUY IS GREAT AND I SUPPORT HIM IN HIS JEW POLICIES".  Let me tell you what I did.  I posted a picture to a page with over 300,000 members, "Most Beautiful Teen Contest".  Its where fat ugly chicks post pictures of themselves from crazy angles and use painful "photo editing" to try to get likes from  sweaty horny arab boys.  The "most liked" picture is the "winner", although the admins of the page obviously have no fucking clue how to find out which picture has the most likes, and are just sitting back on their chairs with some popcorn watching the hell-hole they've created.  Anyway, I posted this picture of Adolph Hitler and wrote as a caption "I'm very shy plz be nice <3", a choice of words commonly seen on this page.  While the average picture got around 8 likes, this one got 43.  It also resulted in brilliant Hitler puns in the common section.  Facebook thought it necessary to take it down, as a violation of their shitty statements of rights and responsibilities.

What is offensive about this picture?  It is a picture of a person.  I challenge you to name ANY other person or figure I could have posted to facebook and would get removed.  Right, there are none.  But there ARE bad people.  The reason that only Hitler would get removed is because people associate Hitler with everything offensive and bad.  He's not even like a person anymore, he's like a symbol of evil that people are allowed to rage about, even if the picture used has nothing to do with the Holocaust.  Fuck that.  I can post pictures of Hitler if I want to.  Nothing offensive about that.  Hell, I could have even gone with Joseph Kony and not get removed.  And you know how people currently feel about Joseph Kony...

TL;DR Pictures of Hitler aren't offensive.  If you're that sensitive then go fuck yourself.
