Hitler visits the International Automobile Exhibition in Berlin, 1937.
This reminds me of Kim Jung Un looking at things. Authoritarians love looking at shit for photos like they somehow were the ones that actually made it.
Is Adolf’s pal Henry Ford in that crowd?
Wikipedia: Speaking in 1931 to a Detroit News reporter, Hitler said "I regard Henry Ford as my inspiration," explaining his reason for keeping a life-size portrait of Ford behind his desk.

Adolf's got this smile like he just dropped one of those silent-but-deadly farts.

So there was nothing silent about Hitler's farts, is all I'm saying.
Also fart jokes were socially acceptable, so nobody else was silent about it either.
