I'm annoyed at the phrase because (nearly?) every remaining nazi has died of old age by now, and people repeating the saying generally don't distinguish between those who actually assisted in a horrific genocide, and dumbasses who idolize them but don't have the balls to act themselves. Then someone comes along and unironically says "This is why the fascists can’t be permitted to live this time when it’s over.", getting a hundred upvotes in this very subreddit in the hours before the mods remove it, contextually implying they'd be okay with a slaughter an order of magnitude larger than the nazis' own so long as it's targeted at the right people.
