Werr they conscripting weirmacht soldiers into the SS or civilians? I have a hard time believing that they'd tell a baker to join the atrocities division out of the gate. I think that ideological buy in to the, according to the verdict of the Nuremberg trials, criminal organization that committed atrocities would make you, at best, intolerant with no place in society. If you were haunted by a ghost who wails at you "oh, so just because I was fighting for the intolerant in the war, you killed me?" I think you could live a normal, happy life. Find me the single case of a kindly civilian who didn't endorse Nazi ideology, who went straight to being conscripted to the SS in 44 or 45, and who killed no allied soldier. I'd be shocked to find them. I don't know how you could even prove it, frankly. I see where you're coming from but holy fuck are you looking for a hay in a needle stack. Seems like a convenient way to transition to that Parenti quote about how the revolution isn't perfect on day 1. If you told me that the Nuremberg trials killed off three kindly bakers conscripted to the SS, I wouldn't have called the post-war effort a farce. I'd go big book of communism on you and blame the Nazis who were lying about their non-involvement for muddying the waters for the 3 kindly bakers.
The Nuremberg Trials only killed 10 guys, from Nazi leadership, so there was literally zero chance of that, even if such people really existed (extremely dubious).
