    Look, we only let them be a part of NATO

    And put them in charge of West Germany

    And put some of them in charge of NATO

    As an aside, it's deranged how easily verifiable that stuff is, but it's just glossed over if mentioned at all.

    "Yeah, this person was a high ranking cabinet member in a political party that wanted to extinguish like 90% of humanity from the Earth, what should we do with them?"

    "Just give them a position of power in our new anti-commie alliance, it'll be fine"

      A lot of people are so adamant that this never happened and will argue until they turn blue. But when you present evidence to them they suddenly claim that "it doesn't matter!"

      Which is weird because if it didn't matter, then why did they so adamantly try to deny it?

        Most of my friends have talked about this at some point and all of them acknowledge it but treat it as not a big deal and continue talking about how China, Russia, Iran, DPRK, etc. are evil and threatens world peace :yea:
