    i avoid situations like this by simply not defending the nazis who carried out the holocaust.

        Sorry, that is not a 'let me educate you' take. Also dude has been around leftist spaces for a long fucking time, he should know better.

            Once again, the Vietnam take, eh, lukewarm bad but pretty expected to come up from westerners, whatever. Defending concentration camp guards however is fucking :gulag:

                And like, y'know, they're Nazis. They also factually were not conscripted to work concentration camps, they got a bigger pay check for it and people volunteered. Leftists doing clean wermecht is a big no for me

        "Nazis didn’t choose to do it” is like a super common take in :amerikkka:

        I've only ever heard that coming from conservatives and cryptofash, but maybe I've just been lucky.

        Good thing the stakes here are so low they can learn from it!
