If you grew up in a racist household and that's all you knew, is that still your fault? I'm genuinely asking what you think about a child that's been indoctrinated into that lifestyle.

i mean it's basically a trolley problem. whether or not we blame someone who was born into naziism, at some point we have to stop them before they hurt others. and if the nazis are armed and organized, we start running out of peaceful ways to stop them.

It's not that persons fault at all, but I think you're making a mistake here in making a systemic question into an individual. We can recognize that no person is inherently "evil" (though I hate to use that word, I'm just lacking for words), but also recognize that the person is a member of an ideological group that is, and as long as the person is a member of said group, they're opposed due to the fact that they are working towards genociding minorities.

I will respond to you with what I said to another person regarding whether we should have sympathy for southern slaveowners

And yeah maybe they were raised that way, propagandized that way, never had a chance to form differing opinions - I don’t care. At one point they were upholding slavery and maintaining it, and I’m not going to be gentle with them while Black people were being worked to death, killed, beaten, and kept in bondage through their actions.

“I was just raised to kill Jews im an innocent wholesome bean”

Yeah that’s bullshit. Stop making up nonsense

You're right, let's round all the "nazis" up and shoot them.

So you think we shouldn't have fought the Nazis? You still won't answer the question

If I'm raised in a cult and taught all my life to hunt and kill you is that ok with you because it's not my fault that I was born into that situation?
