... an unreformable, unmoderatable, degenerate ideology...
That's new to me, that nazism was something that could be called ideology.
It was a hotch-potch odf almost everything :
socialism, romaticism, militarism, corporatism, antisemitism, scale-goat-ism with an admittingly strong portion of racism.
There was something for everyone in it and never ever anything as an ideology, an at least in parts reasonable, consistent thoughts-building with a kind of inherent "logic" (like Maoism, Stalinism, Anarchism, etc.).
... were every bit as crazy as he was except for maybe Goering, and even he was very far out there.
The Strassers (both of them in their own ways) ?
The Axis somehow win WW2 á la Man in the High Castle . Now the Nazis are the good guys and totally socially acceptable and everyone* is happy. ...
Quite true.
Give it a few decades and even what seems unthinkable to us today might have become "common sense".
Weird "models" of social thinking ... the Spartians in ancient greece :
institutionalized murder, rape, robbery, child murder, homoerotic relations, ... really "weird" stuff for us of today.
Or the Azteks in America. For them mass murder of young people ripping their hearts out was "natural".
Our todays set of "morals" and "ethics" are NOT a natural law. Much coud be disgustingly different and still be seen as "normal".
