This is a link to a blog titled "Destruction and Renewal" by Brandon Scolieri. The blog talks about how it is human nature to create destruction and devastation. Though, it is also human nature to renew, and rebuild their societies. The aspect of human nature is exactly how popular dictators like Hitler, Napoleon, and Caesar came to power. Hitler came to power because of the destruction of Germany after World War 2. He was the "rebuilder," and that is how he came to be a popular dictator. Blind Macht by Rudolf Schlichter depicts the power of Nazi Germany and Hitler and the destruction it can cause. It is this power that Hitler depicted which invigorated Germans to follow him.
