That's why they wear masks now, so they can just walk around like normal people when they aren't murdering us in the street.
He died in battle and was never prosecuted for his crimes.
I like to imagine that their thoughts were "damn, maybe this was a bad idea" at the end.
Except they clearly were incapable of logical reasoning so it's unlikely.
Yeah, most of them never relented. They simply did their best to assimilate back into normal life.
Still, whether it was through Nazi hunters, prosecutions, or family testimonies... their names live on in infamy.
Not only did most Nazis and fascists not relent, they went on to found far right parties that survive in some form to this day – eg- Italy's FdI is a direct descendant of the original fascist party.
99% of fascists are not redeemable. Leaving them alive is a mistake.
Man you reminded me about Nazi hunting. I forgot that happened. But I don't remember them getting a lot of them.
There will be people who do not forget and are not content to let them live in peace.
Yeah, I'm surprised that the pursuit continued after the Nuremberg trials. Like Australia found 6.
The French though? They didn't fuck around. Goddamn lol. 10,000 - 15,000 executions. The US thought it was 80k, and the French minister said 105k, but those numbers are unlikely and the 10k-15k is accepted.
The French don't get enough credit for how badass they are. (At least here in America, where people don't read enough history and learn out of propagandized textbooks for the most part.)
They mostly were just professional secret police that freelanced. Some hunted people during White Terror/Red Scare periods, even.
Time for people to start dressing as ICE and mask up
For now.
