    Sure there’s some psychopaths but I really think the majority are just indoctrinated and insulated. They could be reeducated.

    Nah, Stalin got it right the first time when he said they should execute 50,000 Nazi officers; apply his thinking here and maybe this time don’t be so conservative.

        Yeah, 50k officers was a small part of the Nazi war machine. Something like 5 million Nazi soldiers died in the war, and undoubtedly there were millions still living at the end. Pre-war Germany had a population of almost 70 million.

      And instead of killing them Dulles and the rest of the Nazi US government gave them jobs in NATO, the CIA, the West German government etc. very cool.

      The more you learn the more the phrase “Nazism wasn’t defeated in WW2, it was internationalised” makes sense.
