But why discuss Nazis if they are not strictly necessary for the article? It rubs me the wrong way that some people seem to delight in the intellectual brinksmanship of philosophising about what we can keep from Nazis and what not. It's normally useless and foolish speculation that just serves to delegitimze the threat of nazism. Please just forget about the Nazis. Never forget what they did, but don't rationalise them. It's just plain insensitive. Thank you.
