This title is offensive to the millions of people who died defeating that sonofabitch. The line "First they came for..." is about the need to defend those who cannot defend themselves because one day oneself might need to be defended. Referencing this line to refer to the most evil individual in human history is beneath contempt. I would think HN would want to be a little more aware of the implications of its headlines.

The title is genius. In case you didn't notice it means "First they came for [the people making videos parodying a movie about] Hitler...". But that wouldn't be as funny.
