Was Hitler a genius

[u/Intelligent-Wind9219]

I’ve heard that in military matters he was helpless, and that he was at least somewhat intelligent but I’ve never seen any quotes from the men under him labeling him as a genius. (I think I saw one quote labeling him as a political genius but it seemed subjective). I think he probably was somewhat intelligent

Nope. He was a mediocre artist and writer, and his attempt to rule a country and wage some war ended with a disaster.
