"The Nazis ate vegetables with their meals."

"If you sit down at the dinner table, and you eat vegetables -- then there is much less separating you from the Nazis than you think."

Even beyond the bullshitness of the idea that the Nazis were earnestly trying to give social services to people in their in-group, the problem with the Nazis was not that they did want certain services to be provided to certain people. The problem was those other things that they did, that were different from providing services.

The problem was those other things that they did, that were different from providing services.

And even when speaking specifically about services, the fact that they specifically wanted the outgroup to not have them. If you're actually against foreigners having these things, instead of simply focusing on getting them at home first, then Bad Empanada is right about you, but I don't think that person actually exists. Maybe Jackson Hinkle or someone thinks that.
