I didn't make your point, I contradicted it. Hitler and Stalin were not the causes of what happened in Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union at the time. What occurred there was not because one one individual, but rather the mass of the system/society. The same is true everywhere, throughout history ...... individual "bastards/psychopaths" are not what produces the societies in which they rule, they are a product of their societies.
Turning one's anger/rage toward politicians (whether it be one individual politician or a group of them) is precisely what people like George Carlin and Emma Goldman point out is part of what allows it all to continue happening, and it has been going on since the beginning of time.
However, if you think otherwise, then we're just going to have to disagree on this.
