- Einstein was widely known as Public Enemy #1 of the Nasis, according to Time magasine[1]
- This is an honor that outweighs even the 8-11 Nobel Prizes he should have won[2], if the
- Nobel Prize selection committee hadn't been dominated by a few proto-Nasi asshats.
- Unrelated to this are the results a large survey, revealing that Einstein was regarded as the greatest hero in the history of our species[3], while Hateler was gifted with a score designating him history's worst villain.
- Q1: So, Given [2] AND , why isn't statement [1] common knowledge- and instead is nearing our
- cultural event horizon, soon to be swallowed by already slipping into the mists of spacetime?

- (In 1940, Goebbels declared Otto Strasser the new recipient of this dangerous 'award'. In
- both cases a hefty bounty was attached to each recipient's head. In Einstein's case, his
- bank account was seized, In addition, Einstein's home in Germany was ransacked on a relayed
- order from J Edgar Hoover, who was pen pals with Goebbels and wanted evidence of a Communist
- conspiracy.[4] Hoover used underhanded methods to block Einstein's re-entry to the USA after
- the bounty was put on his head.[5] He wanted Einstein dead.)
- While this is all true, it took a long time to hunt the information down, and I don't think a single book has
- all of it in one narrative. WHY?! <------ refactor this

- A1: It is because Team Einstein doesn't even exist
- I beleive that the "spirits" of Einstein and Hateler live on in the hearts and minds of us all;
- locked in a kind of eternal ideological deathmatch between militarism and pacifism, brute force and humble genius,
- hatred and compassion- and despite the Phys.org's results- it doesn't look like Team Einstein is winning.
