Perhaps you like to begin by telling me the tenets of Nazism that support your ideals of peace?
And then yuo can move on to why Hitler is a good guy.
.... i know precisely where you're going. But i'll play.

Can you cite an example of your claim, please?

How does this support the ideal for peace?

The Holocaust was an unfortunate event that was perpetrated by rogue elements within the Nazi regime. The original intention of the concentration camps was to imprison the regime's enemies. It was to be a temporary solution. The Holocaust cannot be seen as a logical step from Nazism: it was perpetrated by extremists within the Nazi party.

It is peaceful because it ensures that society is harmonious and functions according to natural law. When the individual accords another with respect then peace is achieved. The National Socialist state aims to promote respect between individuals inter se and the individual and the state.

There's no natural law about it that i can see.
It's a totalitarian regime that excludes people on face value, arresting their assets, livlihoods, potential and ultimately their lives because theyy exist in the state of the totalitarian regime.
How is this peace?
Are you arguing that if a select few are in a state of peace, then a general state of peace is reached?
May i ask who would be the select few?
Is there where you start talking about Hitler being a good guy? I've been looking forward to that.
.. but i think i've got ahead of myself.

How did this ensurance not take place in Hitlers Germany?

Not true. Citizens in Nazi Germany felt a sense of completeness and association with the nation-state. The German people welcomed the Nazi Regime, as given by the fact they were elected into power and had support.
Regarding Hitler: he was strong leader for his people. He brought Germany from the Great Depression to an industrial powerhouse. He secured the interests of Germany, and made Germany strong.

Augie, you continue to fail to demonstrate peace. Dan we get back to that?
Or have tou conceded that peace for a very few at the expense of a great many fulfils your criteria.

No, I'm not conceding that. I never said that. There was peace for the German people who were the majority of the population.

You've absolutely said that. There is tacit agreement for that in the principles you outline.
Denying it does not negate the obvious concession.
Interesting goal post shift into "majority" though. We both know it's a red herring though.

No goal-post shift. The majority benefited from the Nazi Regime.

Well, that's a whole new argument ... isn't it.
But to address the point at hand, totalitarianism and favourable outcomes for certain demographics (tha majority, you tell me, importantly) at the expense of all that was expended by other demographics does not equate to an ideal for peace.
Or are you conceding that you are arguing that peace is a mutable concept? That it only actually applies to some, and not others?
