Too little, too late. But better than nothing.

Too little, too late. But better than nothing.
- kleiba 5y agoIn a way, I agree. But then again, I'm kind of amazed that Germany is still actually prosecuting anyone for Nazi-time crimes. There's lots of countries where terrible crimes against humanity have been committed, and even if they don't reach the magnitude of the holocaust, you don't usually see a lot of enthusiasm going after the perpetrators a few years down the line.
- RandomLensman 5y ago"Still" is almost the wrong word. After the war and well into the 1950s and 1960s Germany didn't really "want" to prosecute and sometimes when there were prosecutions there was also a strong impetus to avoid strong penalties (don't recall the exact nature of the uniform pockets? Well then you are clearly not reliable as a witness). Doesn't mean there were not some prosecutions and people taking that stuff serious - but not really something "popular".
