Par for the course from the country that reintegrated its Nazis.
I’m no nazi apologist, but given how many members of the party were average people who didn’t take part in the genocide, I don’t really know what else you’d expect. Yes, probably a lot more higher ups and definitely anyone who had direct knowledge of the camps should have been up for war crimes, but what about the schlub who repaired people’s plumbing?
Fuck all nazis. See a nazi, punch a nazi. All that jazz.
My shirt saying "I'm no nazi apologist, but..." has people asking a lot of questions that are already answered by my shirt
Fuck off. I raised the point that vilifying people who had party affiliation but no real participation is wrong and that's valid. I hate that my mother votes for Trump, but that doesn't make her evil. She's bigoted and misguided. She's certainly no Steve Bannon.
Further, contemporary nazis have no excuse while in early-20th Germany there was far less access to non-state information. My mother's a useful idiot to the right whereas modern day nazis know exactly what they're supporting. Modern nazism gets no benefit of the doubt.
So I saw your shirt and and that made me have some questions. Explain the difference between your Nazi apologia and the clean Wehrmacht myth.
they joined the nazi party, mate. they went and did it. it's not like someone drove by and threw a membership book at them and boom, they were now nazis. they went and deliberately joined the most racist party.
Bruh there were no innocent Nazis this is a form of Holocaust denial
Nah dude fuck all the way off you don't get to defend ACTUAL NAZI PARTY MEMBERS and then say that.
