Hitler: Philosopher King

Hitler himself was clearly not a normal human being; genius and exceptional in some areas, his Asperger’s enabled him to single-mindedly pursue personal and political power. Nietzsche’s crystallisation of the previous century and a half of German idealism in a rigorous moral and cultural nihilism, was reified and rolled out with  Weberian bureaucratic and Prussian militaristic efficiency. The post modern state created did not rest on history, religious or cultural traditions. Ideology was shaped instrumentally in order to yield the maximal amount of the only currency that survives the caustic deconstruction of postmodernism, namely power itself.
