      I don’t think Nazis would have seen it that way. After all, most Jewish people those camps were pretty pale…

        Spain was literally under fascist rule at the same time as Germany and Italy.

              Exactly. This Fuentes guy is trying to join a club that would immediately deny him admission. He really needs to self reflect. Everyone should be laughing at him.

                But he isn’t trying to join the NSDAP. He’s an American neo-nazi. They’re more closely affiliated with the know nothings and KKK if anything. American whiteness is their thing. Frankly they’d probably be more supportive of his family than mine because my family immigrated (from Germany) not crazy long ago. Will they eat him? Of course, but more because that’s just what they do

            Is there any evidence for this?

            Spain didn’t fight in the war but there was a sizable Spanish SS division fighting for germany, although pretty much every European country and ethnicity had an people fighting on German side.

              The fact that Spain allowed a Muslim mosque to be built across from Cathedral of Saint Mary the Royal of the Almudena just makes me question it. Also, the fact that Hitler was NOT Catholic, makes me think he wouldn’t consider a country of Catholics and Muslims to be on the same level as his people. Hitler’s plan for a master race was to make a race of blond haired, blue eyed people; traits of Norway and Sweden. I will never understand Hitler on that one. He was a short, O+ male, with dark hair who wanted everyone to resemble tall, broad shouldered, blond haired, blue eyed, people who typically have an rh- blood type. I’m surprised the man didn’t throw himself into one of those camps.
