Did it “in disgust”… but they’d already lost the war and become PoWs, so the cynic in me says they did it out of self-preservation.
Propaganda value… That’s what this is about.
The regime never respected the pedons, they lie to our face and for generations we accepted it.
Maybe our gen y and genz can break the severe bootlicker culture… Maybe not.
But until that is done, the clown daddies will keep abusing the working folk.

There’s like constant military feel-good videos posted on reddit that get to front page almost every time.
People forget an army base camp was the most active location when reddit released their first user stats and subsequently abandoned releasing those stats.
Propaganda is alive and doing very well on social media. And guess which country most of these social media companies operate from? And now there’s China involved too. It’s manipulation central
I am guess I will be shit posting 'til I die
Its no clean wehrmacht, but it is pretty heavy-handed propaganda. A lot of the german military simply wanted the jews gone or their influence reduced or their resources stolen and them shipped out, true, and they weren’t aware of the full extent of the Final Solution. But despite the rampant horrors committed on the eastern front, many of them legitimately believed such atrocities would be confined to the Bolsheviks and the discovery that it had been brought to the european nations, a more “civilized” region, was genuinely horrifying to many of them. Not the actions, just that it was being done here. Nazi NIMBYs, everybody. They suck even more than regular Nazis!
And yeah, many common german soldiers repented and denounced the atrocities when confronted with the evidence. But not nearly as many as the allies would like you to believe!
It’s always interesting when I start looking at the names of German politicians and business leaders in the 50s-90s, there’s always an “SS” heading on their Wikipedia page.
6th army on eastern front was as bad a fucking SS…
The only good thing about it is that got destroyed in stalingrad and reminder died in gulag in USSR with maybe few K returning to Germnay, and that was still too many.
Too Many Nazis war criminals were permitted to live and now their crotch fruit is seeding the next wave across the world
Citizens living in the area who denied the conditions in the camps were made to visit them

Did they make NAZI owner class families return the capital they obtained from usage of slave labour during the Third Reich?
Asking for a friend…
Many chose to stay in the US or Canada after the war.
