Okay I will challenge you on that! (I'm a newbie and congrats, you win my 1st reply/ challenge).
If you mean that there were people who were "good at being Nazis", okay there were "good Nazis". But my claim, and challenge to you, is that there is no such thing as a "good Nazi" because a "Nazi" is definitionally a person engaged in/ supporting an *objectively* BAD ideology and agenda.
Were there good people who got caught up in/ influenced by Nazism...? Probably... but then I think they stopped being "good" the moment they started supporting/ engaging in Nazism. Did some of them go back to being good people after the war, and after giving up all that stuff. Okay... I can even allow for that. But I reject the concept "good Nazi".
Yes...? no...? LMK what you think.
There were bonafide Nazis who, either through ignorance or cognitive dissonance, Were undissuaded from electing to undertake actions that would appear incompatibility with the the ideology they proclaimed to have embraced. The actions they undertook proved to be noble, humanitarian, and of positive consequences far outweighing any contribution their membership in the party may have made towards strengthening and furthering the goals of the Nazis. However, while they undertook such actions, it is reasonable to suppose they would not have renounced nazism even had the option been available. I would say these were the good Nazis.
