Why would the artist think it was a good idea to pose a character with one of the most if not the worst man in history? It degrades the hell out of her IMO. She's even shaking his hand.

I was about to remark on the same thing myself... it really ruins the image.
However, as far as I understand it, Hitler and Nazi Germany are not seen as negatively in Japan as they are by most of the other countries of the world. It kind of makes sense, since they were allies in WWII.
Well, for one thing it's just an ironic comment on Girls und Panzer and the rest of the WWII celebratory ilk..
Secondly, all that Worst Man in History bit is considerably overdone. Apart from the fact it was all nearly a century ago, a whole lot of equally awful stuff happened in every age: this just got more publicity. The Rape of Nanking was just as bad, yet we admire Japanese sacrifice on this site.
In another post I saw here today Cirno was fraternising with Gilles de Retz, who personally was far worse than Hitler, who never tortured anyone; and there is the Father of Physiology, Claude Bernard, who put live dogs in hot ovens until they died --- Adolf never did that to Blondi...

All Asia points east of Iraq view Hitler differently to the West. As a kaisertreue legitimist I despise the nazis utterly; but no more so than all the other thugs and killers who strutted their tiny hour.
I won't argue that Hitler did LITERALLY nothing wrong, as some of his apologists do, but the diabolical caricature we're taught is overblown. In the selfsame war against Germany we allied with a far worse devil by the name of Stalin.

It's because the West is dominated by Jews. No joke. This is why they will keep shoving it in everyone's throats because muh Holocaust.
Yeah no there is nothing good willed about Communism or national socialism.
What no. Communism does not have a very good track record of being implemented on a large scale. In theory, there is nothing wrong with the state owning everything and people paid based on a combination of what they need and how important the work they do is. The problem is that such a system is ripe for abuse with so much power being in the hands of the government. Hell, I dare say that the major problem with Communism is that there is too much goodwill. To work it requires those in power to always be working in the best interest of not just themselves but everyone they are responsible for as well. That is, unfortunately, a really hard thing even for the best of people to do. So really Communism is good-willed, but goodwill alone does not a good system make.
