Well you're not wrong. He'd have to be pretty into it though to know all that at the time. It wasn't hidden but it wasn't promoted either, for obvious reasons.
From what I'm finding about him, the only reason he really joined in with the nazi party was to be able to make rockets and do aerospace engineering. It's not the best look but it's not like he was also a psychopath strong desire to kill Jewish people.
Ok but he did knowingly benefit from aiding genocide. And not in a “halfway across the world” way, in a “used concentration camp labor” way
Which honestly would have been fine (relatively) given the situation had he fucking addressed it after the fact
"Yes, Jewish slaves built my rockets before being killed. Had I not helped, I'd have been one of them" is all he needed to say, it's a very easy to understand position
"I'm apolitical" is what he said instead
Verner was a fucking Nazi, only a guilty man would say that shit
Yeah. The bar isn’t at Schindler, it should’ve been, but it’s definitely above apolitical
