Wow, passing Godwin's law in a first comment, congratz.

Following bad leaders leaves a bitter historical taste in my mouth and is rather insensitive to the feelings of those who fell victim to such attrocities.
Hitler was the leader.
The Nazis were the followers.
It shouldn't be hard to connect the dots.
(also, becuse this is the internet a mention of Poe's is mandatory...)
