The anti- authoritarian Germany is a dream, the Germans love
strong authority and leadership, they just bit off more than
they could chew with old Hitler.
And where would the street goons have been without him?
Who knows? Keep in mind, we're only engaging in what-ifs. It's impossble to say with absolute certainty what would have become of Hitler, his party, Hermann Goering or Germany in general if things developed quite differently.

But Germany has distanced itself from Hitler, and it doesn't seem like most Germans want a new Hitler to emerge. In other words, people learned from the past in order to better invent their own future.
Could someone very much like Hitler rise in Germany again?
Perhaps, but probably not. The world is better of without him and his ilk.
