“Not all SS members were criminals” undoubtedly a true statement but not a perspective I’d ever want to defend. If there was some former SS member that had done extremely altruistic things and was being villified purely for their prior affiliation, I think we could have a conversation… but, in the abstract, I think it’s fair to assume all SS members were criminals since that was clearly the vast majority of them.
Also, what a weird fucking take from an asshat that thinks all “immigrants” are criminals… and, of course, understand that by “immigrants” he means brown people - whether fresh off the boat, permanent residents, naturalized citizens, or second/third/…/fifty-first generation not white people.
You know, I have a hunch that neofascists and neonazis are not good people.
Seriously though, we’ve had the same discussion in the 80s about the Wehrmacht (“Wehrmachtsausstellung”) and “it wasn’t all bad!” is almost a meme at this point. And we will have the same discussion again very soon. Maybe some of the Jews actually were bad people and totally deserved their fate?
These are fascists. If there is any idea, person, historical period that reinforces their self-victimizing superiority complex, they will take it. And they will do what every conservative thinker does: stop thinking if the current result fits your ideology.
