Aside from Funimation making the choice of putting holocaust jokes in the English dub, how is Hetalia pro-nazi?

from what I remember of it - it didn't mention the 'politics' of the eras it went into and was more of a dumb facts/trivia series throughout history. I guess you could argue that the series starting from ww2 from the axis countries pov would be enough - but honestly Hipster Hitler (released around the same time) was probably more pro nazi by comparison, and that was an edgelord parody.

Yeeeeah as someone once pointed out, Italy (the character) is like the polar opposite of the fascist ideal of masculinity. If we're going to be wanking about the woobification of nazi Germany here, we're going to have to do it in the context of this being the story where nazi Germany is so socially inept that he publicly proposes to fascist Italy in a misguided idea about making friends.

There is absolutely a conversation to be had about Hetalia and its silence on historical atrocities, but attaching the word "nazi" to a comic depicting WWII-era Italy and Germany as a star-crossed MLM couple (Chibitalia is canon) is... pretty clueless about what nazism is.
