Hunting Hitler -- a question that is bothering me

DerekJohnson

A few weeks ago I finished watching the final season of Hunting Hitler. Nazi colonies in South America that were going strong well into the 1970s (and the communities still exist today numbering tens of thousands of Germans in South America). I feel like Hitler probably did live out his years down there, possibly into the 1960s.

So even within my lifetime, the Fourth Reich was truly a goal that the Nazis were still building toward. They were perpetrating horrific experiments on South American children, even into the 1970s.

But what brought it to a stop? The show never addresses the question. Something stopped that Nazi momentum in the 1970s. What happened?

(Here comes Hondo to credit Jimmy Carter.)

I never have thought Hitler survived but if he did I liked the image of him chained up in your basement, Stalin

Did the show convince you he ended up in SA?

Hitler died in the bunker on April 30, 1945. HTH.

Yes, too many of the Nazi higher-ups died in South America. The things they built and organized down there were too involved to be done by just a few random fleeing Nazis. There was maniacal leadership driving what was going on in SA through the 1950s and 1960s.

Spoiler alert, Stalin(!) catches Hitler and keeps him in a little monkey cage below the Kremlin for years.

That's the book I was thinking of

I used to read books. Paper things with words and stuff

Hitler either died in a bunker in 1945 or from syphilis soon after escaping. No way he lived into the 1960s.

I don't have a dog in the fight. But I do appreciate the free pub.

I lagged. Like the double meaning with "resist" too.

It is alleged that Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun lived here from 1945 until 1955 when Juan Perón was overthrown. Thousands who escaped the crumbled 3rd Reich had lived in Argentina under the umbrella of protection that Martin Bormann bought from the Perón Government. With the fall of the Peron government many left Argentina for more remote places like Bolivia and Paraguay while some went deeper into even more remote parts of Argentina.

The FBI has made it clear in several reports they were aware Adolf Hitler had survived and made it to Argentina.

Hitler wasn't the only maniac in German leadership during the Nazi era, and a fuck ton of those assholes did escape. Not saying he didn't survive, but I'm highly skeptical.
