More serious answer to the OP - people like irony. Alternately, it’s just as often repeated to imply that the line between the “other group” and “us” is arbitrary.
Given that Jews have been present in Europe since at least the days of the Roman Empire, because of the phenomenon of pedigree collapse it’s a mathematical certainty that Hitler had some Jewish ancestors. Assuming the OP is of European ancestry, so does he. Anybody who lived in Europe before about AD 1200 who has modern descendants will be somewhere in the family tree of anyone alive today who has European ancestry.
NO, NO, NO!
Hitler was a painter!!!
(I’ll leave the rest of this one for my betters!:p:D)
Don’t you have any grasp of history???
The moustache! The moustache!
Actually, when you think about it, Hitler has a lot to answer for.
::::running with it::: He painted a whole house in one day! Two coats!
Told by Jews and Gypsies, no doubt.
All the moderators on the internet, for one.
Wow this was Godwinned in the first posts.
I, too, would also like to know which of the myths about him had proof. I know he was a vegetarian and owned a white German Shepherd named Blondi.
Or was it that Blondi’s mother was white? I used to know the answer to that.
I have two German friends (living there now; one in Frankfurt, the other in Hamburg) and they do have senses of humor. And, GermanicPride, I have to day they would not be on your side right now.
this is why I love the Dope.
See, now I was told that 'twas poor DeGualle who has no balls at all.
I’ve never heard his act but I hear it’s a gas.
Elaborate… :o
Neither of those are true. Blondi wasn’t white. As you can see from this picture here:

she was yellow and black.
Also, Hitler wasn’t a strict vegetarian. He didn’t eat much meat, and stayed away from it for the most part, but he did sometimes eat ham, sausage, and meat dumplings.
He also used to suffer from severe flatulance, apparently.
There still is no evidence he was part Jewish, quite the opposite and there is no reason to doubt Johann Georg Hiedler was his paternal grandfather.
Based on photos, he appears to have been a man who pommaded his hair. I wonder whether he favored Fop or Dapper Dan.
I actually agree that there’s not much evidence Hitler had a Jewish grandfather, but that, like Cecil said, the story was too good to let die. I’m pretty sure his father was either Johann George Hiedler or his brother ,Johann Nepomuk.
Seriously. For seventy years now, no man can wear a toothbrush moustache. A perfectly legitimate style for facial hair now lost.
Himmler had something sim’lar.
