    At first I thought you meant that killing hitler would effectively kill everyone born after hitler since the conditions of their birth didn’t exist anymore.

    But you’re going for a variation of the “let’s make hitler’s art career take off” plan, fair enough

      Well I would say, actually a really good point there, though I wouldn’t say “everyone born after hitler”, I guess really depends on one if WW2 happens. IE you kill hitler, but Heinrich Himmler lead the nazi party and history played very similarly. then you could expect possibly generations to unfold almost identically to the original timeline.

      But yeah it’s the variation of the art career concept, except that I find the premise that hitlers actions were the cause… Fascism and Hitler were, a symptom of a broken country. Prevent the collapse, and the germans don’t vote for Hitler.
