Reductio ad Hitlerum (pseudo-Latin for "reduction to Hitler") is a literary fallacy statement that leads to, or is the same as, one implemented by any stereotypically bad or evil person and so "proves" that the original policy is undesirable.

Example: Hitler had a mustache; therefore, mustaches are evil. (Hitler did X; therefore, X is evil)
