  • On April 30, 1945, Adolf Hitler took his life in his subterranean Berlin bunker. The impact of his suicide on the war was more emotional than strategic. He killed himself because he understood that surrender and capture were inevitable. Still, in the aftermath of Hitler's suicide, there were many consequences and reactions on an individual and a collective level.
    Individual German government figures and the German people had radical and diverse reactions to the news of his demise. Some officials rightfully anticipated that it was time to vanish to avoid arrest and responsibility for the unspeakable crimes of the Third Reich. Here are some of the causes of the things that happened immediately after.

      Or they knew they would be tortured and didn’t want that. Had the Big Guy been captured he would’ve been put in a cage and taken from town to town to show his humiliating capture as he sit castrated and naked in a cage full of his own feces. Then after that he would’ve been impaled outside the Kremlin

    What happened to those children might be the most upsetting part of it all. No matter whose children it is, or what would likely happen to them as a result of their parents’ choices, that’s tragic. It is wild seeing just how many people took their lives or had them taken, not because it’s a surprising ending but because we only ever talk about the bunker.

    • @bloodchalices7338

      Weird take imo. What's more upsetting is literally everything else about WW2. All the children tortured and experimented on or the teenagers that actually fought the war, not to mention how every civilian child actually suffered. It's still a shame, though for me it's difficult to feel bad about morphine & cyanide in context to everything else. It's as peaceful as you can get, the last thing they felt was the morphine. The millions of other children never got that luxury.

Some suspect that he was beaten to death.

      It was the Soviets who captured Berlin. The Slavs were the Reich's ideological enemy of "backwards peasants" & were suppose to have been exterminated the same way the Jews had been. Magda Geobels was a fanatical Nazi ideolog & couldn't stand the idea of her children falling into the hands of the "inferior Slavic hordes" who were descending upon them. I'm not sure if she would have done that if the British or Americans had captured Berlin, but she probably would have. They were all a pack of evil bastards just as you stated they were.

    As much as Hitler claimed to “love” his German Shepard Blondi, it was her who he tested the potency of the cyanide capsules on. And I’ve always believed she could feel how evil he was. In videos that show him interacting with her at the Berghof, she would lie down flat on her stomach with her ears pinned and head low. Or, she would stand with her head very low, tailed tucked, and ears pinned when he would pet her, touch her etc. Poor pup. ❤️
