For me, it would have to be the guy in WWII who supposedly saved Hitler’s life as a child while at the beach and had his life supposedly spared during the holocaust in return (since the person was Jewish). Like bro, the culprit of a mass genocide isn’t going to remember that, somehow stalk his files, pinpoint who he is, single him out, and go the effort to save him. That’s sadly not how a genocide works. When you’re genocidal, most likely you sadly don’t care about those things, especially when soldiers are doing your dirty work. This was always a common story in WWII videos and it’s very deceptive when you think about it, especially when you consider Neo-Nazis would share the story specifically to make Hitler sound like he had some kind of honor (spoiler alert, he didn’t, he was an extreme form of a genocidal maniac).
Such stories should be filtered by more investigative peoples out of public discourse, they’re traps.
