My folks' brains have been so poisoned, I can't even say simply "We've not been told the entire truth about Hitler, for example, the books being burned were smut and perverse, and many in the places he 'invaded' were Germans who wanted Hitler's help."
This gets me, "You think Hitler was a righteous man, oh come on." Not even close to what I said.
I can't even go to the Jewish thing, at all.
Try talking about a WWII vet about if we were on the right side of the war. I've attempted and all the cues I get from the vets are full stop in pursing that tangent. I don't try to push the issue, these are guys I've met at various bars in the area if I'm out day drinking.
No, their whole life and honor and glory is thoroughly wrapped up in it, will never change.
I know your pain, old dogs and new tricks.
Yep.
