What Gen Z Right Wingers Think Of Hitler and Jews
this is an excerpt of an article from the conservative website City Journal. There is a lot more on various topics at the link.
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Moderator: What do you think of Adolf Hitler?
Ashley: I think he was a great leader, to be honest. I think what he was going for was terrible, but I think he showed very strong leadership values.
Andrew: I’m in favor of a strong executive. I think we should have a stronger executive branch. I don’t think we should be killing people or doing mass genocide, obviously, but I do think we should have a strong executive. I feel like one of the biggest problems Trump is running into right now is all these little courts, they want to throw up little blockages against everything he’s trying to do, whether it be his tariffs or deporting people. So I’m very pro-strong executive, strong leader, strong man. I support national sovereignty, and Hitler was a nationalist. He was like, we have to take Germany back for Germans. And I feel like we should do that in America. We should take America back for our native population. So, I’m not an expert on Hitler by any means, but as far as nationalism is concerned, I’m all that.
Brice: I myself am actually Jewish, ancestrally. I’m Christian by faith, but Jewish by blood. I’ve actually read Mein Kampf . The end conclusions that he came to: absolutely abominable. But I strangely understood where he was coming from as far as wanting to improve the national state of Germany.
Lauren: He made all of those people suffer, and I want to do ungodly things to people who do things like that.
Moderator: What do you think of Jewish people?
Atticus: They’ve got Hollywood on lock.
George: Don’t they own, like, a ton of the media, and, like, just kind of everything?
Brice: No different than black people, Asian people, or any other people here today. I don’t really know why there’s a single issue about Jewish people.
Andrew: I would say a force for evil. I don’t see why we support Israel. I think Israel’s a very evil state. The genocide in Gaza, killing all these poor people. And the only reason we really support them is because they are the biggest donors. We have AIPAC, and these are all Jewish-run organizations.
Moderator: Let me clarify that. Andrew, you think the Jewish people are a force for evil?
Andrew: Yes, sir. It doesn’t bother me if it’s true. Those slurs, if you’re racist or whatever, that just rolls off my back… This is my country, my people have been here since the American Revolution, so I say what I want to.
Moderator: What do others think about that?
Ashley: My boyfriend and I were just discussing the differences between Judaism and Christianity, and when you’re looking at biblical terms, the only difference is they don’t believe in the New Testament. I don’t understand what the overall difference is between the two groups.
Ally: I think, for me, any classification of a whole people group, I just don’t think you can say this entire people group is bad. My husband’s Jewish. I wouldn’t say that they’re doing anything to people, you know.
Atticus: I don’t think they’re a force for evil, but I do think the relationship with Israel is very complex, and it’s not just oil and special interests, there’s so many things that go into that, and it makes it a very difficult subject.
Lauren: I hear [pro-Israel content] all the time from certain pastors, and it makes me question them. I used to go to Global Vision Bible Church with Greg Locke, and he’s demonic, and I know a lot of stuff and how much harm he’s done to a lot of people . . . he goes to Israel all the freaking time and takes his stupid money. Israel has a lot of connections to sex and human trafficking, and that doesn’t sit well with me. I don’t feel like this is anti-Semitic because I’m a little bit Jewish myself, so I have all the room to talk, and I’ve been seeing evidence. When you see evidence of a pastor abusing people, or a pastor won’t show you his financial statements, that’s a big freaking problem.

I think our educational system has failed us.
While that is largely true, the easy access to misinformation that is often shouted even louder than facts and reality on social media have done the most damage to these kid's brains. Saying shit like "I’ve been seeing evidence" of "Israel" and "a lot of connections to sex and human trafficking" is insane. And defending Hitler as someone who meant well but just took things a little too far is vomit inducing. These sniveling little shits are weighing the potential good they see in a man who orchestrated the murder of over 7 million people. Hopefully it won't take another world war and millions more dead for them to see the downsides of such ideologies.
The Gen Z'er who said that also says he is not an expert on Hitler, as if that means then anything is possible, even the possibility of Hitler being a morally neutral "nationalist". Hitler was a madman. Maybe they should make "The Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich" by William Shirer mandatory reading.
I would comment, but being a "foreigner" there are members here who feel that if I were to exercise my right to "Speak Your Mind" I could be subjected to a tsunami of off topic critical whataboutisms so I have no choice but to remain gagged.

I don't think I'll live long enough to get through that linked "Commentary" to find the context and relevance of the link you posted.
