It is pretty damn good. I mean, if you a) like Hitler and b) don’t like Jews.
I have a problem philosophically and practically with calling anything ‘the best.’ Where there’s overstatement like this you’ll generally find bulldust and a desire to deceive.
I don’t have a problem describing things more realistically – for instance, crap, inadequate, adequate or some other relativized descriptor.
Thus I vote @ndy’s blog to be an ‘adequate blog’ (which is pretty good, really).
I believe your comment may be regarded as being sufficient to the task of providing the reader a proximate summary of your views.

@ndy’s blog is the best that has ever been and, quite possibly, that ever will be.
The De Niro version was a little too drama-imbued for this simple anarcho-human, and reduced Nietzsche to a crude advocate of vengeful violence.
The earlier Robert Mitchum version was much more earthly and realistically menacing and, wisely, made no mention of Nietzsche.
