This is true, but there has to be room for reconciliation. Not with Nazis, republicans, alt-right, etc. but with people who have recognised their beliefs were shit and that they needed to change. People's beliefs are far more often a result of circumstance, than innate character - having once believed something shit, or even downright evil, should not condemn you forever if you then come to realise the truth about those beliefs.

I agree, though I strongly believe that anyone who acted on those beliefs need to face justice before there can be reconciliation.
That means you, US military veteran reading this who had a change of heart after leaving the war crime factory.
