So are they saying that the decision by the allied powers postwar to declare the entire SS a criminal organization was the wrong decision to make?

Does that mean Germany now owes back pensions to the hundreds of thousands of veterans' families because joining the SS was "complicated" and they need to review whether each individual man was individually responsible for war crimes?

The Nuremburg trials were a travesty of justice, change my mind.

Apparently Politico thinks so, at the very least.

I think that was just for show. Canada (part of the allies) allowed 2000 Waffen SS members to immigrate, many of whom had committed the worst crimes imaginable.

More Waffen SS members have been given a standing ovation in the Canadian parliament than were ever prosecuted by Canada.

What about a young man from Berlin who joined because all his mates were joining and the newspapers told them it would help return the nation to its former prosperity? Is nuance allowed in judging him?

Well what about this particular veteran?

30 years prior to WWII, the Ukraine was subject to the Holodomr, a genocide perpetrated by the Soviets that killed three times more people than the Holocaust, and that just so happened to be overseen by a jew (Lazar).

When the Nazis, who had done nothing to hom or his people at that point, offered him a chance to free his country from the Communists, was he wrong to take it?

You could get a PhD in Ethics for a proper dissertation on his situation.

What about him? He was in Poland, as I told you the previous time you posted this copypasta.

30 years prior to WWII

Like I told you the previous time: Less than 10 years actually. You don't sound particularly well informed.

Not only are you claiming that the Holodomor took place before World War I, and in fact, before the Soviets took power in Russia, but you also misspelled Holodomor...

Ignorance is strength.

a genocide perpetrated by the Soviets that killed three times more people than the Holocaust,

Copypasta: How many?

and that just so happened to be overseen by a jew (Lazar).

Copypasta: "Lazar"? You on a first name basis with murderous communists, or is that the only part of the name you know? I assume you mean Lazar Kaganovich. It's funny that you blame everyone except "Joseph", the Georgian at the top.

When the Nazis, who had done nothing to hom or his people at that point, offered him a chance to free his country from the Communists, was he wrong to take it?

This may have been a moral dilemma for those who joined the Nazis immediately upon their invasion. This guy joined years afterwards, when they had already visited their depredations on Ukraine as well as many other areas in the Soviet Union.

You could get a PhD in Ethics for a proper dissertation on his situation.

There may have been morally gray cases in Ukraine, but this was not one of them.

except, you know, putting it in writing that 90% of his people should be exterminated, while the remaining 10% serve as slaves for the great aryan race

The lesson is: anyone calling you a Nazi to win political points has absolutely no integrity or credibility.

These people will tell you that volunteering for the SS doesn't make you a Nazi. How can you possibly mock somebody with that total lack of shame in any effective way?

But also "honk honk" = "Heil Hitler", so anyone honking their horns is definitely a Nazi.

"Running the trains didn't make you a nazi!"

"Lighting the ovens didn't make you a nazi!"

"Starting the showers didn't make you a nazi!"

"Releasing the gas didn't make you a nazi!"

"constructing underground death coasters don't make you a nazi"

"making masturbation machines to harvest jew sperms don't make you a nazi"

"making jews shoot themselves with bendy shotguns don't make you a nazi"

Ukrainian Galizien SS Waffen divisions actively participated in the "elimination" of Jews and Poles. The 4th and 5th Waffen carried out atrocities against Poles at the Huta Pieniacka massacre under Nazi command.

SS 14th Waffen routinely guarded concentration camps and carried out operations under Nazi command.

The Azov uses nearly identical insignias to the SS Polizei Panzergrenadier Division and uses the Nazi salute.

What part of those fuckers being Nazis is "complicated"?

What part of those fuckers being Nazis is "complicated"?

But they fought Ze Russians, whose president Adolf Hitler is the newest 'New Hitler', after Saddam, Khadafi, Ahmadinejad, Trump and all the others so branded.

How can people fighting the Bad Russians be Nazis?

Remember, the working class honking horns = "nazi", but waffen-SS troop = "it's complicated".

I'll defend John Rabe's honour, but fuck this shit. Rabe was a good man because he saved hundreds of thousands of civilians from a rampaging death cult, while this guy is being defended because because Nazism in Ukraine is inconvenient to the neoliberal project.

Not a Nazi: swearing an allegiance to Hitler and fighting for the SS during WW2

Is a Nazi: tip of thumb touch forefinger

I despise these people with an unending passion.

This is also convincing me that Klaus Schwab is the son of the genuine Nazi: Gunter Schwab, who helped to found the German Green Party.
