I've also noticed what you're saying, and it feels so odd to me, because I was definitely raised with the explanation that the Nazis were bad because of their crimes against the Jews, but also that Europe mostly cares about that specific crime because jews are considered European (which is a whole other brainworm in it-self, but I don't want to argue every stupid thing my parents believed). My dad was also way more anticommunist than my mom, so he still thinks that Stalin was way worse than Hitler, or at best, equivalent. My dad also grew up in Apartheid South Africa, which means he used to believe a lot of stupid shit about history.

my personal theory is that this new philosemitism among fascists arose because of the nakba. right wingers mostly ignore the difference between the jewish people and israel, and when they saw the settler colony committing genocide, their reaction was something like, "oh my god, they're one of us!"

also, really happy to see you being more based than your family! gives me hope for the country im in right now.
