Why do we think of Nazi germany as being particularly evil?

[wishIwasSalludon]

First of all I’m not a Nazi I’m not even white, I actually love Jewish people very much

What I don’t get is why Nazis are viewed as being particularly evil.

Because they killed millions of people? There have been empires which killed way more people than them.

Ironically enough the empires of the allied forces(Brit’s, French) killed more people than Nazis did. Mongols also killed a shit ton of people.

Maybe their views on race hierarchy, but the idea of your people being superior and using that as a justification to kill is used by pretty much everyone

Also the British are pretty much the inventors of “race science” and trying to rank races in a “scientific” way.

Are we just gonna pretend that the allies didn’t have racist views so anyways why are Nazis seen as particularly evil?

Bcos they lost if you lose war you evil

Never did. Even as a child I always sided with them whilst being taught false truths about them. In Hungary, we are more supportive of Germany in World War 2. Both sides suffered plenty, they had their own treaty and we had Trianon. They were hated for being correct, they are far from perfect but they did well enough.

Killing people = bad

bcz of Jewish propaganda

 

[ihatereddit]

they represent the opposite of what the modern west believes in (equality n shiet) + recency bias no one cares about some giga chud who killed 999999 trillion people who lived in 500 BC

Simple. They lost World War 2. The West then used the Nazis to create its new mythos of anything evil, and Hitler was made as the new devil. The story also perfectly justified the creation of Israel and by extent helped to incorporate Jews into "western civilization" and elite positions. They benefit from the narrative too. Though of course it's primary beneficiary is liberalism (the system) itself.

Funny enough, aesthetics, portrayals and lookism has a lot to do with keeping this perspective up. It is just a product of our times and how history is used. Not much deeper than that.

 

[IHATEINDIANS]

It was one of the first extremely well documented wars with images, seeing victims visually I think evokes sympathy. Plus, radio really boosted propaganda.

Humans just naturally see targeted genocides as more evil than those that kill anyone, which is why war mongerers like Napoleon who killed many are seen as a very admirable leaders by many but those that target specific populations are generally hated.

 

[FaceandBBC]

I like how people act like Stalin wasn't 10x worse than Hitler was.

 

[Hagman]

Because the education system is run by JEWSSSS who think that the holocaust, which "killed 6 million" is the worst thing to ever happen, even though it DIDN'T happen, and if it truly did, 6 million isn't that much compared to the genocides committed by Jews themselves

why do you say this?

 

[Aesthetic]

why do you say this?

Prob because of the sheer number that died under his watch being higher. But anyone can morally understand the difference between a targeted mass killing VS a famine that came out of bad state policies.

 

[bppharmacist]

The short answer is jews, But i think the answer may be deeper. im not sure i buy the idea that nazi germany was a wholesome innocent state that just wanted to protect its people and have a strong racial idenitity and was just protecting itself

Only genetically superior individuals should be preserved
