...certainly, before he assumed power. He wasn't regarded by many people as essentially different from Mussolini, and much less threatening than the Communists. The anti-Semitism was more-or-less an embarrassment, and something he and the Nazi movement would "outgrow". Lots and lots of people regarded Hitler as a bully and a boor, but the ultimate protector of their interests against the Reds. It wasn't until after Munich, and his obvious desire for a new war, that he became beyond the pale.

From two years ago:

Zuckerberg defends Facebook users' right to be wrong – even Holocaust deniers

Mark Zuckerberg defended the rights of Facebook users to publish Holocaust denial posts, saying he didn’t “think that they’re intentionally getting it wrong”.

In an interview with Recode published on Wednesday, the CEO also explained Facebook’s decision to allow the far-right conspiracy theory website Infowars to continue using the platform, saying the social network would try to “reduce the distribution of that content”, but would not censor the page.

Zuckerberg’s comments came the same day that Facebook announced a new policy pledging to remove misinformation used to incite physical harm.

The CEO’s remarks to Recode have reignited debates about free speech on the social network at a time when Facebook is continuing to face scrutiny over its role in spreading misinformation, propaganda and hate speech across the globe.

Like Stephen Miller -- No matter how 'White' he thinks he is, being Jewish will override all to Neo-Nazis.
