Buddy, that is not how ideology works. If a guy is doing nazi things, speculating is fair game. If there are circumstantial things, we'll talk about it.

Go write angry letters to the National Enquirer if you don't like this stuff, internet commenters aren't exactly the biggest fish to fry.

If a guy is doing nazi things

The entire problem here is that there is literally no evidence anywhere of the guy in question doing any Nazi things at all

I'm not saying people can't speculate. I'm saying I think the conclusions they reached are wrong. That's equally fine to do on the internet

The guy in question is his dad, not him. Anatol von Shpakovsky died in the 80s

Ok, raising a nazi shit is doing nazi shit too. So we'll speculate.

Oh right, so Hitler's dad Alois was a Nazi since he raised Hitler even though he died before WWI and doesn't seem to have had any unusual views. And then since Alois was a Nazi, I suppose his dad must have been a Nazi too, and then it's just a solid unbroken string of Nazis all the way back to the dawn of humanity

If Anatol was involved with Hans' career at all, sure, I could see why it'd be relevant. As it is, he died only a few years after Hans graduated and long before his involvement with government or the Heritage Foundation.

This is protest too much territory
