Despising nazis

 

I have spent my entire life despising nazis. I dislike them so much I refuse to capitalize the term. I am not religious but I do come from Saxon and Christian roots and have some German ancestors. None of that matters. I loathe nazis because of what they did during WWII, I loathe them because of the pure evil they either engaged in or allowed to take place. I am appalled that there were and still are active nazis in the United States today, that they have a home in the Republican Party that I refer to as the Repugnican Party. 

I was born between VE Day and VJ Day which makes me an old man. As a child, the postwar years gave me daily opportunities to be exposed to the recent war and its atrocities. It was everywhere. Today the so-called "Good War" is some vague event in the distant past for most people, yet an estimated 72–89 million people perished on this planet during that war. There is plenty of photographic evidence. A good many of those killed were innocent civilians. The nazis had everything to do with all that torture and pain. They deserve to be condemned now and into the future for their ideology of hatred and evil. 

Chances are good your grandparents were anti-fascists. That's what Antifa is. Far too many Repugs seem to roll the other way, pro-fascists, but most won't own up to it. They aren't fooling anybody and their days are numbered.
