"Hitler Did Nothing Wrong" is a statement used for trolling purposes to deny that the acts Adolf Hitler was responsible for during his reign were morally wrong. Over time the phrase become widely used as a snowclone "X did nothing wrong".

Certain archives show that, on 4chan, earliest posts saying that Hitler "did nothing wrong" can be dated back to June 29th, 2011[2]. The full phrase though had been used since at least January 30st, 2012[1], when the No.377777777 GET post had contained the phrase.
Spread
On August 13th, 2012, an anonymous 4chan user submitted a post calling for others to participate in the Dub the Dew contest and vote the name “Hitler did nothing wrong” among several others to the top of the contest page.
The phrase had later spawned a snowclone "X did nothing wrong", which became popular in discussions on imageboards about characters in various forms of media, where it's discussed about the morality of the actions made by them.
