That’s what I mean by being counterintuitive.

Thanks. I see what you mean. I agree with your friend’s take on Hitler if you only consider his rescuing Germany from the draconian effects of the Treaty of Versailles.

Had I met your friend and she told me she was a fan of Hitler, I would have thought she was a loon and a murderer at heart. But once I got to understand her and the reason, albeit narrow, for her feelings, I could forgive her for them.

And that’s an example of “to understand all is to forgive all.” I’m not saying I necessarily agree with that, but the German government believed it long enough to suppress a book’s publishing.

I can understand their reasoning at the time.

Thank you, for the discussion, sparklite2!
