It's strange to me that people who were born around 20 years after WWII are so engrossed with it. The people who actually lived through it were laughing at Hogan's Heros back in 65.
People these days act like it happened just few years ago and they're suffering PTSD from it. Hitler and nazis probably get talked about more now than 65 years ago.

I suppose you're talking about me. As a matter of fact, I laughed watching Hogan's Heroes, too.
If we talk about the Nazis more today than years ago, it's probably because our collective national consciousness and conscience has grown, allowing us to understand not just the evil of the Nazis, but of any and all racism and hate.

You seriously don't believe that our understanding and condemnation of racism and racial violence has grown among most Americans? That most Americans are just as racially prejudiced?

I understand some people seem to have a pathological obsession with it and seem to want to keep America stuck in the 60s/70s.

I understand some people want to deny that racism is real, unless it's "reverse racism" against whites.

No, we just don't want to deny that not all Americans are equal in their own country, and that something must be done about it.

German scientists who had been forced to join the SS in order to be used for top secret Nazi war projects got us to the moon.
The medical science gained from the Nazis came out of concentration camps where prisoners who were seen as less than human were used as test subjects by the Nazis. Not something most of us would brag about, even though the results have saved millions of lives.

Almost all of the 1600 German scientists who were bought to work on operation paperclip voluntarily joined the German Nazi party. Otherwise they would not have continued happily working for Hitler till the last hours of 1945.

Verner Von Braun was an unusual man (despite being responsbile for thousands of Brits getting blown up during the blitz)...I often think he's like Michael Jackson...flawed character but brilliant genius

Bringing back those voters rights the supreme court decided there were no longer a need for would be a start. Urban renewal of inner cities, along with a return of job opportunities would be another. There's so much, but one thing for sure that's needed is expanding awareness among Americans of the harm done by racism. Changing hearts and minds.

It seems to me that instead of hearing that, I mostly hear that white conservatives are suprimisist nazis. And of course with that message being cranked out there have to be claims of ramant racism taking place. And I expect that to continue until the white house, senate, congress and scotus are run by the people they want in total control of everything.
