He's going to die comfortably at home, surrounded by his loved ones

Y'know, I was thinking about this today.

This guy's got kids and grandkids and probably great grandkids. Did they know? His kids had to know, right? Did they just ignore that their father was a member of one of the most evil organizations to exist? Did all his grandkids just discover that oops, grandpa was a fucking Waffen-SS trooper from the news media?

There's no answer that isn't grim as fuck, and I can only hope he has no loved ones, that everyone who knew he was a Nazi immediately excised him from their lives.

a relevant canadian example is our deputy prime minister chrystia freeland who is that granddaughter of that nazi and spent a bunch of her adult life furthering his work in diminishing nazi atrocities and inventing soviet ones. then she became deputy prime minister and gave a standing ovation to someone just like her grandfather in parliament

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
