    @Soyweiser I don’t think there was anything illegal about being anti-war in general, even in the UK and Canada - it was one of the things that differentiated conscientious objection there from conscientious objectors in Nazi Germany, who tended to get sent to concentration camps and/or shot. A lot of conscientious objectors who were granted exemption from the draft did alternative service instead such as working in factories or as farm workers or miners.

    What was illegal, though, was (yes indeed) promoting the idea that the war was bad and therefore Hitler should be allowed to win.

      I have no idea btw, I’m just repeating what I read somewhere, and tbh, the journalism on this is pretty bad. (small example, why do they keep calling grimes musks ex wife?). (His grandfather also is somehow suddenly the leader of the org, which is not something mentioned by the wikipedia article).

      They prob were on the pro nazi camp then.
