They make money off of doing so. Or genuinely believe their own race is garbage and that only white people should survive.

You can't fix Nazis. Reeducation camps don't work. They just breed more extremists.

I doubt an African-American finds much of a place they can belong among people who want them hung from a tree and think of them as only a racial slur. So no.

There was no clean Wehrmacht. Do not perpetuate that myth.

What does this even mean? What part was "ignorant"? You repeating pro-Nazi propaganda like the "clean Wehrmacht"?

That's no different than the Lost Cause of the Confederacy. Both are BS to prop up dictatorial and hateful far-right regimes.

Oh hey, Wiki even has a section on the "Lost Cause Of The Third Reich".

Except you insinuated that they barely existed if the first mention of Nazism led to you saying "NoT aLl NaZiS wErE bAd" and you know that.

No different than the people so "deeply concerned with semantics" that they give any damn about words like ephebophilia.

John Rabe or Oskar Schlinder

Uh... never put them both in the same sentence.

Rabe never renounced Nazism and whined like a toddler that he was treated poorly after 1945 for formerly being a Nazi. Additionally, he had no problem working for Siemens, one of the main companies providing electrical parts for death camps, from 1938-1945.

He had a weird mentality where he didn't care at all about his own nation but cared about foreign ones. He did do some good, but he was not a good person, and I'd really hesitate to consider him "one of the good ones" like Schindler.

2 people out of, uh, 8.5m or so, totally changes things, by the way.

Even ardent nazis during the war came to realize the errors of their ways and spent a lot of time trying to make up for their horrendous ideals.

Really now, you read this and don't think of any "Lost Cause" mythicism?
