This is the issue. When it comes down to it big words on the internet mean jack all.

I think the majority of people in the west are complicit in suffering somewhere. Whether thats the sweat shops where our clothes are from or the factories in China where kids make our tech.

You have to volunteer to be part of the SS, right?

Then he deserves it.

This trial is such a waste of time; they're probably going through with it for bragging rights.

I remember listening to a discussion from Jordan Petersen on Nazis and he says the reason why a lot of Nazis joined and went the lengths for what they did was not out of malice, but out of respect for their own comrades. The mentality is that their buddies have to go and do such dirty work, how can they possibly leave them behind? Then he recommended this book: Christopher Browning - Ordinary Men, which explains the psychology in which Nazis were made. I haven't read it but I plan on it.

Honestly, I believe people are far more influenced by society and their environment than they give credit to. I can see the point of the trial, but I feel treating ring leaders and subordinates of this scale as equals comes off as disingenuous. You have to be abnormal to go against the curve and normal people don't do this. I mean, how many of us decided against college?

I used to think prosecuting these geriatric nazis was pointless too, but you know what? There are still nazis in the world, young nazis and new nazis, and they need to understand the level of contempt the rest of the world has for them. A 92 year old nazi is still a nazi, and fuck nazis.

Dude, it's acknowledging how easily a human can be corrupted and just how much influence an authoritative figure has on a group. Have you ever heard of the Mai Lai Massacre of Vietnam? It was basically a group of US soldiers who haven't seen any battles since they were deployed, been battling just the trap infested environment while constantly hearing hearsay about how dangerous the Vietnamese enemies, and when they finally got the opportunity to go into the battlefield against the enemies, they found out it was a false info and the village they were sent to were made up of plain unarmed civilians. You know what happened next? The authority of that group took the first shot and all hell broke loose. A complete horror story, women being assaulted, men mercilessly killed off, babies tossed into the air and caught... with bayonets. A soldier who was involved was interviewed when he came back and his remarks? "It's just one of them things"

The truth of the matter is that not all of us are shonen heroes who always fights for what they believe in regardless of the circumstance. And those who do contribute to these incidents are far more similar and human than what is led to be believed. That's why it's important to understand how they end up committing these insane actions so we know how to prevent them in the future.

Just throwing this out there, if he is 92 as of 2019, he was born in 1927.

He was only 17 when the war ended.

This topic sure showed how many users on CE would be accessories to genocide rather than just having an honorable (albeit unknown) death.

If hypothetical polls have been any indication a lot of users would be willing to genocide for money. Although it may just be the detached and unrealistic way the hypotheticals are worded.


Think it's easier to say words before stuff actually happens, although I hope the actual need to choose doesn't happen to anyone.

He's going to be shown leniency. He's lived over 70 years without hurting anyone. Another Nazi a few years ago was sentenced to 4 years or something like that for accessory to murder for 300,000 people and then didn't serve any of it because his health delayed incarceration and then he died before he could serve a single day.

The point is some crimes you don't get away with even if you got away with it.

You guys seem to be missing that he was either 16 or 17 when the war ended. You underestimate the power of the Hitler Youth program and the way it indoctrinated ignorant kids who didn't know any better and lead to a direct path in the SS. Kids in the youth program also got to eat more than kids who weren't.

He was 14 when the Final Solution was put into motion. He was born and grew up during a time of war and turmoil. He didn't know anything else. He couldn't know anything else.

You might wonder why they waste taxpayers money on a 92 year old man, that have lived his life for 70 years after ww2. That's a joke. How will they punish him? Life in prison? Yeah right.

If you think making sure nazi war criminals are legally condemned for their actions is a waste of money, chances are you're a bad person.

There's nothing more evil than what the nazies did in WW2. My point is that it's patehic to go after a 92 year old (and probably) evil man: He will probably die before the trial is over anyway.
My point is that it's a waste of us taxpayers money.

The world at large determined that "I was just following orders" is not a valid defense over 70 years ago. It was called the Nuremberg Trials.

the world at large. mainly usa and its boys also determined that japan honoring their war criminals is ok. since the war criminals were only serving their country.

Well, the USA had been doing the same, and continues to do so in some parts, for nearly a century prior. Of course they're not going to bring it up when another country copies them.

My death wouldn't be unknown because if I were in that situation I would have killed as many officers as I could before getting caught, so the regime would likely have made my death very public. Like Sergeant Stiglitz.

He made a similar comment in a thread about Bill Cosby. People miserable in life turn bitter, hateful and resentful because theyre not happy themselves. I dont know if thats his case or his age but I find this generation compounding their misery with be knee jerk reactionary to an extreme degree.

For Germany, but not Japan. The Western Allies AND Soviet Union both had obvious issues with Germany's war crimes so they were actually punished. Japan got away with a bunch of terrible shit so the USA could use Japan as a bulwark against the Soviet Union and China. One of Japan's post-war Prime Ministers was a Class A War Criminal suspect https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobusuke_Kishi.

I just want to point out that Nuremberg did not determine "just following orders" was an invalid defense. It is an invalid defense but Nuremberg proved that many Nazis actually went far beyond their orders to be cruel and murderous. Many of them were, in fact, NOT following orders. They went the extra mile to be as terrible as possible.
