That seems entirely unrelated to anything that I’m saying.

Maybe, if they were extremely disingenuous, one could make the argument that the Autobahn, which is still in use today, Materially improves people’s lives, and that this refutes my point that the nazis didn’t advocate for the material interests of the German people. Maybe.

But it was also not necessarily built for that. (War production benefits from internal infrastructure as well)

But that doesn’t impact the overall character of what I’m saying.

Look, liberals are wrong to support a genocide abroad, full stop. Liberal (and conservative, of course) politicians should face trial at the Hague for war crimes committed.

You (or here, BadEmpanada) don’t need to lie about the Nazis to make that comparison.

Because it was a good rhetorical strategy to gain power?

Does it matter that their first acts once they gained power was to kill actual socialists and communists?

Does it matter that working conditions worsened for German people even before the first shots of WW2 were fired, as they ramped up productions to prepare the war machine?

I’m sorry, it’s just historically inaccurate to describe the actions of the Nazi party as even potentially beneficial to the German people.

We see this in fascist movements today as well. Even under “white supremacy” there’s no advocacy for anything that would actually benefit white people, it’s just grievance politics against out groups.

Even this framing sanewashes the Nazis.

The actual Nazi party delivered none of this while gutting government services and selling services (like the post office) off to the lowest bidder.

The term “privatization” was coined in order to describe what the Nazis were doing in Germany
