The hand-drawn and hand-coloured map sketch illustrates Great German fantasies of the “New Europe” under German rule: The “East” supplies the German Empire, enlarged by conquests, with products from industry and agriculture.

Of course whilst this poster is part if history, Nazi aren't a thing of the past...
Just today on Reddit I saw Jordan Peterson fans all demanding a return to an era where people stood up for the rights and free speech of Neo Nazis (as apparently happened in Illinois in the 70s): https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanPeterson/comments/1ffys4x/i_disapprove_of_what_you_say_but_i_will_defend_to/lmydyec/
So yes, Nazis still have their active defenders, and they don't get as much push back as they should.
There's a reason the Blues Brothers hated the Illinois Nazis.
