There is always "more too it" since governments love to classify things, people have faulty memories, and you can always manipulate events to make anything you want appear to be reality afterwards.

National socialism was just backwards communism. It had the same type of nonsense going on from secret police to a ruling elite that could do whatever they wanted. The only reason some people have a rosy view of it is because of what the communists decided to show us after the war which makes people think that the nazi's didn't actually do anything and it was all the communists. A lot of what the nazi's did, such as human experimentation, was barbaric in ways that the communists didn't even bother with but people like to try and argue that it never happened because of intentional communist fuckery. The nazi's weren't saints and weren't "the right choice" like some people would like to believe.
