The ''Hitler Rants'' (also known as "Hitler Reacts", "Hitler Parodies", or "Downfall Parodies") are {{Memetic Mutation}}s involving fanmade series of {{Gag Sub}}s involving UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler and his famous [[VillainousBreakdown freakout scene]] from ''Film/{{Downfall}}'' (portrayed by Creator/BrunoGanz), often ranting about several topics. Said rants are usually {{anachronis|mStew}}tic, [[SeriousBusiness often over trivial matters]] and sometimes can even relate to current events of the time a video gets made, all for RuleOfFunny.

* ArtisticLicense: In a now-deleted video where Hitler tries to play ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask'' and ends up encountering WebVideo/BenDrowned, Hitler details how he plans to play the game in the first place using [[UsefulNotes/{{Emulation}} Dolphin Emulator]], saying that someone from the bunker will go to the store and buy the emulator, and he will insert a CD of the game into said emulator. For one, Dolphin Emulator is a computer program, not a physical device. For another, you play games of an emulator by running the game's code within the software rather than with a CD.

* VulgarHumor: Many of Wonky-Tonk-Botty's parodies (and WebAnimation/{{YouTube Poop}}s) fit this trope to a T, due to his graphic use of ToiletHumor, [[ClusterFBomb vile profanities/references]], [[DeathAsComedy mockery of people getting killed/seriously injured]], racist content or politically incorrect/MoralEventHorizon material.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: In the video where Hitler realizes that [=YouTubers=] make fun of him with these parodies, there are usually other characters who think the videos are pretty funny. Hitler, of course, usually disagrees.
