It's really weird .... after the war, it was perfectly acceptable to call out, accuse and point fingers at communists or communist sympathizers as enemies of the state ... many of these people had fought as our allies a few year prior and helped to win the war.

At the same time, we were welcoming Nazis and Nazis sympathizer into the country - many of whom were the same people our veterans had fought against a few years prior - and then allowed them to gain wholesome productive and wealthy lives in complete secrecy because government knew that it no one would like that.

It was far easier to be a Nazi or a Fascist after the war than it was to be a communist or socialist.

The stigma is so great that no one even wants to admit it even today.

It's no wonder that far right ideology is so prevalent these days. It's a cancer we never wanted to fully immunize ourselves from. And now its coming back and we still won't admit we suffer from it.
