I mean, I've had that struggle session because so many of their soldiers were just dumb kids who had no fucking idea what was going on and were caught up in it with no way out, and I always come to the conclusion; Fuck'em. Can't save everyone everytime. You've got to do triage. And Nazis, no matter what their excuse is, are always at the bottom of any triage list.
I agree, German kids could have resisted, there was the White Rose and shit, and let's not forget the thousands of leftists thrown into the camps. It's not like people didn't know what they were doing was wrong, they just didn't want to take the risk of opposing the regime like the peers did. And to forgive them, punishes those who did resist. That's why Nazi collaborators deserve a swift execution along side the true believers.
Stalin didn't kill those kids. The German people killed those kids by letting the Nazis take power in the first place. So we should mourn those kids, and we should correctly blame Nazis for killing them. Not a hard struggle session at all
But then you don't get to be upset with Stalin for fighting a defensive war
