@s8n @Alex @LukeAlmighty @alyx You’re projecting your own opinions about it onto the general population, most of whom don’t share your views.
@loveFromBirkenau @LukeAlmighty @alyx @s8n @Alex We really need a word for the nazi equivalent of a tankie, because it’s the same phenomenon. “Implementation of my ideology led to unspeakable atrocities, so I’m going to subscribe to some weird alt history where it never happened but if it did then they deserved it”. With tankies, it’s stuff like Holodomor. With you guys, it’s the Holocaust.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but "Nazi" seems to be the word equivalent to a tankie in common English, which makes a lot of discussions on these issues a bit annoying.
I sometimes try to make delineations of nazi/neo-nazi/white-supremacists, to try to make clear there are in fact multiple factions.... but yeah, way too many people just lump everything as "nazi", and it pisses me off, cause I don't think many legitimate WW2 Nazi Germany nazis are still alive. And while today's antisemites like to worship those past Nazis, they are not "worthy" of the name.
