Hitler Hated Animal Cruelty

dinner guests shun meat.[20] In the BBC series The Nazis: A Warning from History, an eyewitness account tells of Hitler watching movies (which he did very often). If ever a scene showed (even fictional) cruelty to or death of an animal, Hitler would cover his eyes and look away until someone alerted him the scene was over.

A black-and-white close-up of Adolf Hitler is overlaid with a historical text about his aversion to animal cruelty and meat-eating. The joke comes from the absurd contrast between Hitler’s horrific reputation and a seemingly compassionate attitude toward animals, making it a sarcastic reaction to discussions about veganism or hypocrisy.
