Holy fuck talk about not knowing anything about history. Musk looks like a fucking moron.
Hitler literally rounded up socialists and marxists.... holy fuck.
He was a right wing fascist, no historian worth a grain of salt would argue otherwise.
Nazis were certainly not the good guys, they exterminated humans- there is no world in which that is acceptable.
This is a common refrain in some circles. There's also the overuse of the term Nazi, both the left and the right call the other side Nazis. I also hate the US conservatives calling Democrats or liberals "the real Nazis" as it's taking the left's terminology as your own.
Coach always calls me liberal on here; apparently if you're not a Zionist you are a liberal. That's it! and it's ridiculous. I've asked him to define conservative but he won't. And hey, you can have different perspectives on these terms but I think he doesn't have a good idea really.
I would agree there isn't. You can't have the idea of good without bad. Bad inheres in good in a spectral or hauntological fashion. To say one side is good or bad is a very reductionist take. Nazi's were decidedly much much much worse.
They may have been doing bad things, the jews I mean, many likely were, don't we all- however, to inflict genocide, torture, rape, experiments etc on them for any wrong doing is insanity.
It's also insanity to say that because some may have been "bad" all of them should die.
The whole program of the pogrom was ultra nationalist populism (in the inverse) which requires a scapegoat, that being the jews. The scapegoat (literally goat in old times) carries the sins of the nation away with them and allows collective extirpation of wrong-doing, guilt and mistakes.

I have a somewhat different perspective on this but as an example, it's interesting that the U.S. has been very willing to start wars and kill a lot of people in order to fight communism. From what I've read it wasn't at all a given the U.S. was going to side against Germany; it was considering going against Russia instead. And the Jews of course wanted to spread Bolshevism into Germany and beyond and many Jews have said that's not a myth. Not saying I agree with what Hitler did, but you can consider and debate these things. Nazism has been made to be the supreme embodiment of evil. Even on Getbig, you can hate on all groups but talking shit about the Jews is completely beyond the pale according to some.
And it can't be debated that Jews, as in the group, have "The Chosen," and the "other" ideology (everyone else) which is a much more extreme version of Nazi Aryan supremacist ideology. Jews are at war with the whole world basically and also want to exterminate groups of people. But theirs is good because God said so. Well, can't debate that.
Speaking of good and evil, I mean. And scapegoating.
