1923 is a little premature. He wasn’t appointed Chancellor of Germany until 10 years after that. Hitler was actually in prison in 1923 for attempting a coup, so it wouldn’t have been too upsetting to say you were against him.
It wouldn’t have been Hitler that would have gotten you canceled. It would have been suggesting we go get involved in another war so soon after WWI with no real evidence that it would be important.
However later on there was more support even among Americans with the US Nazi party that existed and tried to run in elections.
To be fair many around the world saw Fascism as a new exciting way to run a country until war broke out. Then those Nazis and fascists were only good when they were dead.
I wonder if those cosplaying as Nazis today understand they aren’t the heroes they think they are especially when it comes to US WW2 veterans, some would consider the real heroes would want them dead.
