I also need to get fucking real here with the Nuremberg stuff. This example gets used a lot lately. You know what we did to many of those "just following orders" Nazis? We killed them. Just like we killed hundreds of thousands of them on the battlefield.https://twitter.com/JamesMartinSJ/status/1008507728929738752 …

The Nuremberg trials took almost two decades and a World War to happen. You think intimate justice will be swift? A war criminal in the Hague, from Serbia, wasn't apprehended for many years. I'm not saying it's even-handed. I'm saying it's not unavoidable. And I agree.

The Nuremberg trials happened consequent to an entire regime being violently toppled by a multi-nation coalition so our baseline is pretty high. The Third Reich didn't have a sudden change of heart.
