I am not stretching the truth. Seven years of parades and posters doesn't suddenly make mass murderers out of peaceful people. They had a deeply anti-Semitic culture, which the Nazis made government policy.
I have noticed people de-criminalising and inventing excuses for the Nazi in the last few years or so. There seems to be a new generation of young men growing up who dont want the Nazis to be bad guys. There is some kind of glamour there which they must still find attractive. Youtube is full of it.
And frankly, the men doing that re enacting in the article are the same. I saw the same crowd, at MOTAT once. They had all their Nazi army uniforms and some cars and so forth. There wasn't one of them under the age of forty and they were all running around breathing heavily pretending they were in a war and were 21 year old Nazi supermen. It was all vaguely embarassing and unsettling at the same time. Just don't. There has to be a better fantasy you can act out with your mates.
