This is the message he posted. Given the current political environment, it's inevitable the WWII collector/history community will be confronted by these idealists. They want to whitewash history like they are doing with other eras, and they will call you a 'fascist' simply because you expose a certain side of history they don't like. They fail to recognize that showing the complete picture of a certain era such as WWII is extremely important in order to understand it. They will definitely not understand how and why Axis militaria is collectible; they don't want to understand, because they are activists and idealistic. Objectivity stands in the way of their ideals.

These people are dangerous. They want to destroy history they don't like, which means they will try to get personal information and try and 'cancel' you. They're not afraid to get physical.

My recommendation for the online collector's world is to put up disclaimers where possible, to start with.
