there are dissident voices in a space created by struggle by opponents of the system. There are alternative historians,newspapers, blogs and activists.
The difference between the Germans killed and the Jews and solders killed is who started the war and why. The fascist racist powers launched aggressive imperialist wars of conquest treating their opponents is sub human. All the other countries, although not perfect, tried to stop war.
Patton had mad views about being reincarnated, was a racist, and beat his own shell shocked soldiers. He would have been more at home fighting with the Germans.
