Mitigating factors for me:

it's signed by Hitler and he had the signature authenticated
he decided to call the person who publicized that he owned this book a communist for some reason? Presumably with negative connotations.

I don't know fuck all about this guy, but it's not a good look.

I somehow missed that his was a signed copy, that definately changes things.
