barsoap@lemm.ee 1 day agoAs for East Germany, would you mind stating how your thesis about the government taking an active role
If you read what I wrote, then you would know that I actually stated: a) the government didn’t do that and b) it prevented civil society from doing so.

West German Government Was Full of Ex-Nazis After World War II
So in the east.
The Purge of Lawyers after the Breakdown of the East German Communist Regime
…lawyers. Gregor Gysi is a lawyer, btw.
All in all you really don’t seem to be particularly knowledgeable about German history. You also don’t seem to be willing to investigate what I gave you, instead falling into a partisan “But SED good therefore they are right” (unironically) and “everything is the fault of the west”. Very predictable, very sad.

The quantity and quality with respect to how de-Nazification was handled in the West vs the East was entirely different, and you are erasing that because the East still had some Nazis, while the West was infested with them. This is affirmed by the links I sent, to which you merely read the titles. The lawyer piece, for example, talks about the entire process of de-Nazification with an emphasis on how the Nazi lawyers were treated.
I could do the same low-effort character assassination you levied against me, but if you’re not even going to read the abstracts or intros of the articles I link, this conversation was never going to go anywhere in the first place.
