      Even the so-called goods people mention were obtained at the cost of blood. A lot of blood of innocent people. How hard is it to denounce nazism really lol fuck.

        It’s almost like people want to find a reason to support… what they really believe in.

      Kind of like how the US government did the same thing when they protected former Nazis against War crime tribunals because we wanted their help against the Communists?

        There’s a bit of a difference between literally volunteering to fight for the nazi state and protecting von Braun so he could work for NASA.

        Protecting von Braun doesn’t enable the holocaust and other Nazi atrocities. It’s machiavellian and realpolitik, sure, but the nazi atrocities are over by that point.

        Literally enlisting in the SS, though, you’re either actively carrying out atrocities or enabling other people to carry out atrocities.

      They also fought Nazis at some point, so it’s a bit more complicated

        Have you been taking stupid pills…? Like yeah, obviously some things are grey and complicated… But some things are black and white. And (I can’t fucking believe I have to say this) Nazis = Bad.

          I’d kind of love to hear how you would justify to Ukranians in 1939 that the Russians who have been murdering 10s of millions of Ukranians are the good guys.
