"So then you know that homosexuals overall were as much a contributor to the Nazis as they were victims of it."

Generalizations are sometimes useful, sometimes not. You paint with too big of a brush. The fact that some of the early NAZIs (Roehm & Co.) were homosexuals is well-documented; to imply that most people with that personality disorder were NAZIs is going a bit too far. Certainly all the homosexuals in the conquered lands who were executed had nothing to do with the NAZI rise.

Overall, it is interesting as to how many top NAZIs had clearly diagnosable psychiatric problems (psychopathy being the most common thread running throughout).

I didn't imply that most people with that disorder were Nazis, I simply noted the impact of homosexuality in facilitating the rise of the regime, which runs at great odds to the victim-only myth that is common today.
