Tensions flared in the House of Commons on Monday over opposition calls for House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota to resign after apologizing to the House of Commons for inviting, recognizing and leading the chamber in a standing ovation for a man who fought for a Nazi unit during the Second World War.

I mean that's kinda the point the guy you originally replied to was making. From the limited info I've seen about this guy I know nothing about him, which isn't enough for me to dismiss him as a shitty person with just "Nazi bad". Certainly a good starting point tho lol

Schindler was extraordinary. Extraordinary means out of the ordinary. Meaning a notion of an ordinary exists. The ordinary is nazi bad. A good position to adopt as a default.

It's exactly the point I was making but people here are so quick to make a judgement on little or no information.

Oskar Schindler was a Nazi. Pope Benedict was a Nazi. Neither are considered bad people but let's just assume everyone else is?
