Affirmation of Nazis, Hitler and the Holocaust

Despite spanning only around 12 years, the Nazi regime bequeathed the modern world a vast and horrific legacy, with which its successor regimes, but also culture and politics writ large, need to contend to this very day. The national-socialist ideology and institutions are intimately tied to antisemitism and to the Holocaust, as the extermination of the European Jewry was one of the regime's main political projects. Therefore, attributing positive characteristics or praise to Nazism and to Adolf Hitler amounts to legitimising genocidal antisemitism; as such, it represents a clear and radical form of contemporary anti-Jewish hate speech.
