IMHO it is only appropriate to call someone "insane" after genuinely trying to understand their actions and motivations.

Go try to genuinely understand the actions and motivations of Nazi Germans. Good luck, mate.
Hitler literally wrote a book on his motivations. He was an insane ideologue and demagogue, based on his writings, actions, and speech.

You don't need Anne Applebaum screeds, boosted Reddit comments and a expertly-curated media bubble to determine that Hitler was insane.
