  • The grandparents are still being held accountable for what they did, I don’t believe in descendants inheriting crimes, this is where I disagree with OP. Celebrating the grandparents in this example would be the same as celebrating the Holocaust and the people responsible for it.

    I consider society to be “dynamic”; it will change over time, and it makes more sense to make judgements of a general population based off of currently living people and how the newer generations are trending. Basing observations on a generation that is dead/will be dead within the next 15 years does not feel like it can be used to represent the current population. The changes are gradual but when you’re already generalizing large groups of people, it’s easier to break it up by what generation has done/are doing and if they are still around. There is going to be some bleed over between generations, but looking at how the newer generations are changing seems like a better way to see how a population will be changing in the long term.


  • I probably inferred too much from the post’s title, especially after I had seen previous posts with very similar titles framing Canada as being supportive of Nazis.

    While I don’t agree with OP’s stance of associating people today with people from +70 years ago, people have differing perspectives on things and my opinion is going to be based off of how much I perceive the two things to be relevant. To me, their stance would be like holding a person accountable because their grandparents destroying a building long before they were even born.


  • The issue is with conflating people from an event which occurred in the 1950s and associating it with groups of people alive currently, to me these two things are distinctly different from each other, and I wouldn’t link these two things together.

    Events related WWII feel irrelevant anything going on today, it’s been ~75 years since then and the majority of people from that time period are already dead or >90 years old. Their actions were not influenced by people born decades after the fact, and it feels incorrect to link the two groups together. Multiple generations of people have been born in that time span further distancing people from older ideologies.

    By David Pugliese Over the years some Ukrainian Canadians have staunchly defended the 14th SS Division Galicia. They have falsely claimed that Ukrainians who served in the division were conscripted, when in reality 80,000 volunteered and 13,000 were selected. Other apologists argue that the divisio…

    With the title of the article/post, and the summary shown on desktop, it looked like this was just another post associating Canada with accepting Nazis/implying that people with Ukranian nationality are Nazis due to the phrasing of the title being similar to the titles used by the lemmygrad/lemmynsfw users.

    It’s my fault for skimming the rest of the post body, it looked that was a generic image caption crediting a photographer, followed by a short paragraph copied from the article.




  • You wanna check the screenshots I provided where I searched for both “Nazi” and “Canada” in World News and could not any posts about the Canadian Parliament incident? Even this half-assed post fails to provide any actual details concerning the incident.

    It’s pretty easy to mess with people pushing an agenda when they have no argument to begin with. You’re just blatantly here to fight with people while pretending to be concerned about Nazis in Canada, your previous comments to other people here make that obvious.
