    This is true. I’ve met plenty of people that haven’t ever even heard of Hitler. He’s not as big of a deal outside of the Euro/Western sphere as he is within it.

    There are plenty of people who are viewed differently depending on the cultural context. Mother Theresa for example is painted as a saint here in the west, but is considered quite monstruous in the areas she “helped.”
