However: Germany started WW2 unprovoked, the to date largest millitary conflict in human history in the first true effort of industrial warfare and extermination. Nazism rose to power through minority election and its subsequent crimes are well documented. To recurse on it being a merely nationalistic idiology is stupid, and revisionistic at best.
The soviets also had a large programme of political persecution and even antisemitic persecution. Polands erosion and destruction was a combined effort, however when it comes to the extenstion of the idiological program of National socialism into the expansionist warfare and ethnical extermination, that enabled the ghettos and death camps, this overwhelmingly happened without soviet influence or propaganda. Neither is the german national guilt a anti nationalistic concept that enables political agression as you might insinuate, as soviet denial of guilt is 30 years after its collapse not a sign of soviet agression. Abolishing fascism was a good, in my eyes.
How war shaped civil mathematics is an insane topic tho.
I chose cantor as an example because he advocated for a intercultural mathematical union, and because he inconsistently identified as jewish. Also because he lived in a time that you could attribute to any priority over arguments in relativistic theory. Cantor was subjugated by circumstances and probably not through political selection. It is exactly the point i want to make, because contrary to cantor , Hausdorff was a universally acclaimed scientist in his time, that actually did mathematics in cantorian spirit. Hausdorff was indeed politically targeted. One would not be there without the other tho. Do you think Hausdorff wouldve preferred to give up his position in order to get interned and quite possibly murdered?
