A quarter of Germans believe there were at least some positive aspects to Nazi rule, a poll showed today.
The finding comes after a popular talk show host was fired for praising Nazi Germanys attitude toward motherhood.
Germans were asked whether National Socialism had some good sides (such as) the construction of the highway system, the elimination of unemployment, the low criminality rate (and) the encouragement of the family.
A quarter of those who responded said yes but 70% said no.
Stern magazine commissioned the survey after Germanys NDR public broadcaster fired talk show host Eva Herman last month following her statement on the Third Reich.
She was reported as saying that while there was much that was very bad, for example Adolf Hitler, there were good things, for example, the high regard for the mother under the Nazis.

Some claim that there were good points of communism also... Low number of criminals (actually the number was much higher then it is today but noone was supposed to say about it loud) or high employment (yes, yes, "full employment policy" purely communist invention made for parasites)

I’m sure there were good points. That’s how evil is marketed.

You can find something good to say about just about anything. Hitler got things done and that’s a little hard to deny but he was still an evil piece of crap.

I think Berlin did have a 0% street crime rate in 1937.
To: Verdelet
the low criminality rate Depends on how you define criminality.

But if the good points are to support what ultimately is bad, then it’s not good.

Well the way liberals will continue to bash certain values is to say “Well the Nazi’s were for it, so it must be bad.”
Germany is suffering from a dangerously low birthrate today, but I guess to say German women should have more babies (with German husbands) is now “Nazi”.
