Why would any Russian defend Hitler??





Who knows, maybe they're tired of the politics in their own country.

Most educated germans I know do not speak fondly of Hitler, for they can see how he ultimately tore the country down with his sick perverted ways.
However, I'm sure there are a number of the neo-nazi Hitler youth that adore him for what he "stood for".

Many anti-communist Russians served in the German Army. Because of this, just being a prisoner of the Nazis as a Russian meant a trip to the Gulag.

I've met many a German with sympathies toward the Reich, more common in Bavaria, but usually they can find some other glorious time in their history to latch on to or just be completely ahistorical about life.

You ask people in Bavaria about their opinions of the Nazis? I wouldn't dream of being so impertinent.

Because their youth are the product of a miserable, toxic culture

I think saying anything good about Nazis or displaying the swastika is outlawed there


Yup. This includes the Nazi salute...



...raising your hand like that in Germany gets you jail time.

The germans are trying very hard to move on. They are almost complete pacifists now. They save their competitive juices for sports and business now.

And they kick arse at both.

It's against the law to even talk about it. I was on eBay once and saw a Nazi toy soldier advertised as "vintage German heritage man."

Can't believe all those liberals in Germany made a law that German citizens can't express pride in their history.

Wait ... wut .... errr ... did you just equate Hitler and the Nazis to The South, Confederates and the Civil War?


YES that was the angle he was going for. It won't be long before the Confederate states and soldiers will be considered terrorist. Any and all who show the least bit of support for the south will be labeled racist.

I would suggest we raise the white flag on this issue but we would just be labeled racist.

Are you drawing a parallel to confederate flag? It's not really the same

LSU gonna have to change their name along with most other southern college teams now. Can't be associated with a bunch of racists right?
