All of this needs to be, for the same reason what Nazi Germany did should be remembered. Humans are dumb fucks and WILL do this again (after the US collapse, I mean), but maybe it will be held it off for a bit longer.
sparing so many nazis the noose was kind of a huge mistake. re-wilding huge portions of germany would have been the move to try and cut out this social cancer. we transplanted that shit into every world power after the war.
Same mistake the US made going easy on the South after the Civil War. Look where it got us.
yep, every single officer needed to hang if we wanted to genuinely win that war. at least have their families banned from holding any government office, elected or otherwise, and from holding more than a certain amount of property, for a generation or two.
