[if being fascist was a crime] there would be far fewer Finns, Latvians, Danes, Bosnians, and Ukrainians
Although we should really push back on the historically revisionist narrative that most Ukrainians in WW2 were Nazis because by orders of magnitude the brave Ukrainians of WW2 were fighting against the Nazi invaders as part of the red army.
It's so fucked. There were a tiny handful of Ukrainian Nazis against millions of Ukrainians in the red army. It's just so fucked, I don't even have words.
Oh definitely
I wish all the Finnish SS volunteers had been executed, maybe then we'd have fewer people going
”noooo there's no proof they committed war crimes! Just because they volunteered to fight for the Nazis doesn't mean they were actually Nazis!”look just because you swear allegiance to the nazis and then join their death squads and proudly take up arms on their behalf and use those arms on their behalf doesnt make you a nazi

was UkrainianFinns, Latvians, Danes, Bosnians, and Ukrainians
funny how the collaboes who are in those countries managed to effectively erased all their opponents in the regions, especially in the balkans
yes they should all be in the pit
"fascists should die"
"you sound like a fascist!"
"Killing Nazis makes you a Nazi" says the person arguing against the one thing that is historically proven to be effective in stopping Nazism.
What crime do you think merits the death penalty?
Volunteering for the fuckin' SS
That isn't a capital offense
tmI can't tell you how many times this shitty argument style has adversely affected my life.
Up to 100k or 60-80k did volunteer in Latvia, it is really bad. Some more populous countries had an order of magnitude fewer volunteers.
What extenuating circumstance could there possibly be for Danish people to join the SS? To protect themselves against Swedish invasion?
"Your honor, my mitigating circumstance is that I really hate the Jewish Bolshevik scum."
Bingo

My nazi granpa's nazi best friend was one of the Norwegians who volunteered for this shit. I hope they're both burning in hell.
"I just wanted the cool skull hat! Is that such a crime?!"
Wild times where people are defending actual SS nazis wtf. This is what all the normalisation of Nazis and "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" talking points post Ukraine war have accomplished.
“Double genocide theory” primed people for this.
Which is taught as a matter of course in US schools. My high school US history class taught us that WW2 started when Hitler and Stalin formed an alliance to invade and divide Poland. The fact that we were allied with the Soviets was barely mentioned.
I mean not all people who were in the SS should be executed, it should definetly be done more on a case by case basis. If someone felt forced to join the SS or did so to gather intelligence and didn't commit any atrocities I feel like doesn't deserve to be executed.
Though with someone volunteering for the SS there might need to be a prison sentence anyway.
Edit: to clarify: if someone did not commit any crimes against humanity and was forced to join under threat of death they didn't commit any crimes against humanity before the end of the war, that person shouldn't be tried as a member of the SS
Bet you defend Vietnam vets too.
If you literally volunteer for the fucking SS you deserve to be shot.
This should not be controversial.
Exactly how many members of the SS do you imagine were just sitting around twiddling their thumbs and refusing to participate? Lmfao. It's too bad the Soviets weren't given the chance to exterminate every Nazi in Europe
