basically nazis were just following orders and marijuana feminizes men were two that were funny to see on this site lol
Many such cases.
Not being funny about that. Way too many such cases and it's a horrid take every time.
There’s been a few instances of apologia specifically relating to the OG German nazis, but the floodgates really open when it comes to discussing US murderers overseas
I think 7deadlyfetishes was banned for saying something like Nazi Concentration Camps guards were just following orders.
yep, funnily enough he was the one that brought up the nazis and defended the SS soldiers for following orders (an army made up of volunteers) when they were talking about US soldiers during the vietnam war
Yeah that’s the one lol
I mean... They literally were. Do people who bring that up think it absolves the Nazi rank and file? Isn't the point that they suck for following the orders? I don't get it.
I think they think: “Well, in the military/police/security, they break down you down and teach you to just be a mindless drone that just follows orders”. Which is true, but that doesn't mean that gives you the right to go around killing and torturing literally innocent people and children because some general gave you orders. Besides, comparing that to American soldiers during the Vietnam War? How on earth can that make the US look any better?
The Nazis were literally ordered to kill Jews and put them in concentration camps. Many of the SS guards and soldiers were literally volunteers and not conscripted like most American soldiers. Some people inside the Nazi German army deserted to join the Western Allies or the Soviets (either because they were opportunists, communists, liberals or they were conservatives but were against the war or genocide). So the people who were inside the Nazi army were there because they wanted to be there and they knew exactly what they were doing.
As with most fash excuses, it's all just hand waving.
I want to see the marijuana feminization one, that sounds particularly funny
It was haz’s old account I don’t remember the user name now
Haz had an account here? Wtf
Yeah he mostly posted his own videos and stuff and was like “wow this guy is spitting right guys??” And when people were like “no he’s is a chauvinist idiot” he’d take it really personally and argue so people figured it out eventually.
