As a human, I love you. Maybe it’s on me, but after comparing boycotting mcdonalds to a literal war crime… to come back by trying to convince me to cut Nazi Germany some slack. You do you. I always say to people now, that you never now need to guess what you’d have done if you were in nazi Germany, it’s whatever you’re doing now. I don’t expect everyone to have taken a Crack at hitler. Or to have sabotaged a fuel truck. Or have sheltered a Jew. But, apparently, what YOU would have done is write scathing rebuttals to the Allies who were critical of the bystanders. You would have been arguing that the rest of the world was asking too much of the German people.

  • When did I say anything about cutting nazi Germany slack? Is that how you interpret questioning whether you think every German is a nazi? Cause if so you either need to work on your reading comprehension, or get over your teutophobia. Plenty of people in nazi Germany were against the regime. They couldn’t leave much of a public record, for obvious reasons, but they were there. There was a German resistance, but it didn’t last very long before getting crushed. What you’re arguing is essentially that the Allied forces making their way through Germany should have been roughing up civilians, because they were Germans and apparently, according to you, that makes them nazis. That is a terrible argument, and fortunately one that most sane people reject outright. But you’re making it here about USians, many of whom don’t support the current administration. Focus all your ire on the administration, on trump supporters and the entire maga movement, on congressional republicans, on supreme court conservatives, on billionaire oligarchs and the right-wing media, hell even on DINO spoiler voter members of congress and the complacent, centrist, and corporatist leadership of the democratic party. You’ll get no argument from me there. But to accuse the entire US population? That’s no different than blaming the civilians living under any other dictatorship, and if you continue to insist that you’re in the right for doing so then you can kindly fuck off.
