Just because he was a terrible person (to put it mildly) doesn't mean he was stupid. He understood that access to and control of children is paramount in terms of the direction of a society.
Just saw you edited. No one calls drug dealers stupid because they understand they can influence whole demographics of children. We call them reprehensible because they would stoop that low.
It isn't about "appealing to" them. It's about forming them. I'm afraid if you don't understand the importance of this, the culture war is lost on you. Do you remember how terrified the left was / is about rising support for Trump in young people? Remember how they breathlessly fretted about how "gen z" and "even some millennials" are "turning conservative"? They screamed "save your kids! intervene!" If they lose control of the young ones, they're finished in the long run.
Ah, thanks for clarifying. They made up a boogie man and now we should shed all semblance of reason to take up this fight that. . . the left pointed out??
Hitler wasn't wrong about that, was he?
The children are always the key.

Yeah I didn't mean to edit to hide anything. I just don't like making separate comments, so I try to edit quick if I notice something I wanna add.
Also, it is not "wrong" to influence children, IF you're influencing them for the better.
Appealing to rational adults is what reputable people do. Appealing to children is what drug dealers and pedophiles do.
