i mean i agree, and i’m not saying that the owner family should be absolved for supporting the nazis, but companies are not people and in a capitalist world, especially in a country where “useless eaters” are vilified like in nazi germany, shutting down and thereby putting hundreds of thousands of workers out of a job would have huge consequences for the own population no matter the allegiance of a particular company.
however, it is also true that bmw in particular was very happy to collaborate and employed actual slave labor from concentration camps so that point is eroded somewhat…

That’s kinda my point. This isn’t ‘oh no, we have to collaborate or die’, this is ‘oh, we have to collaborate? Cool, fuck those subhuman rats’.
Nazi collaboration companies killed people and contributed to countless human rights violations. Being ‘forced’ to collaborate is just a convenient excuse to wave away their crimes and how some of the people behind the companies were spared by justice because capital is convenient to capture.
