Is it unresolved guilt over the Holocaust that is behind Germany’s blind belief in Israeli propaganda? Or have they simply not dealt with the fascism that led to the Holocaust?

    Difference between capitalist states’ treatment of nazis and that of the socialists is that the capitalists kept them in positions of power — since the prevalence of fascism means the capitalist class can more easily scapegoat marginalized people for capitalism’s faults — while the Soviets used them as reparations for the millions of Soviets the nazis killed, then left the nazis to rot afterward as they should — because fascism is actually a threat to socialist states.
