I guess you never heard of Werner von Braun, or the space race.

  Parent is specifically addressing the misconception that the acts committed by Nazis on prisoners contributed meaningful medical knowledge. Your comment is likely being downvoted for its snarky tone.

    My response was not snarky, that is something you attributed to it. The parent said: > The idea that we got a lot of science out of the Nazi regime is a laughably absurd piece of literal Nazi propaganda I don't see how someone could know who Werner von Braun is or that Nazi scientist laid the foundation for the US/Soviet space programs and make such a statement. Our civilization would have never made it to the moon without "Nazi" science, and we would have achieved orbit much later. I do think the parent is wrapped up in a delusion that acknowledging contributions of Nazi makes them a Nazi. But that is another topic altogether.
