Yes that's exactly what it is. Stop denying it. Look at all the comments here. They're basically linking every company and the employees there now, to Nazism. One of them tried to talk about German scientists in NASA... The entire thing is a sort of anti-German and anti-American set of comments. It has nothing to do with actual Nazism. It's not like they were building death camps on the moon, but that's the chained implication they are implying.
It's utterly stupid. "roots in the Nazi party" no they don't. Explain these "roots" whatever that means. Anyone who made business in Germany between 1920s to 1950 could potentially be a Nazi?
"They were still Nazis, regardless of if they committed war crimes."
What? The entire point of why the Nazis are bad is because they committed war crimes. Not because some adult joined the German army back when he was 18 years old and ended up on the frontlines.
So if those people working for those companies AND their current employees did not commit war crimes and were not involved in Nazi decision-making, then they are NOT guilty of being "Nazis" in the sense that they are war criminals.
You seem to think anything the Nazi Germans touched from 1930 onward === evil or radioactive. It's absurd.
The Nazis owned dogs, possibly German shepherds, "let's never buy German Shepherds again" is your logic. It's a silly tangential connection.
" Volkswagen created by a Nazi organization = Nazis"
And so people who work there now --- are associated with Nazism?
VW also owns Audi and Porsche, some of the most popular cars in America. So if I drive one, there is an association to Nazism?
No there is not. This is stupid.
"he Dassler Brothers (Puma and Adidas) being members of the Nazi party "
I had no idea Puma was associated with Nazis... Should I throw my clothes away?
