If Hitler Were Clean-Shaven

Would every American male be forced to have some sort of facial hair?

The reason I ask this question is because of the furor over a Hanes ad where Michael Jordan has a mustache that is supposedly similar to Hitler's mustache. Apparently in America your facial hair cannot be anything near Hitler's or else you're a racist Hitler lover who supports genocide and hates Jews.

Since having facial hair similar to Hitler's is unacceptable, it's good for American men that Hitler wasn't clean-shaven. If Hitler had no facial hair, American men would have to sport facial hair to avoid being labeled a neo-Nazi.
