What? No, obviously you can be drafted into the Wehrmacht and never ideologically support the party or the regime. But that's not the position of someone like Rommel (or Schindler, for that matter).

If a Nazi is, say, war profiteering on the black market, he may be undermining the Third Reich but it's hardly an act of resistance. The same applies to protecting individual Jews for reasons of blatant self-interest. At the end of the war Himmler had some insane plan to convince the Allies he was a good guy by freeing everyone at Ravensbrück. If he'd gone through with it this would not have made him a heroic figure analogous to Schindler, and you could easily make a movie about that alternate history without it qualifying as a sympathetic portrayal.

I'm so confused. Which of these six are you banning?

Only the pro-Rommel media, eg. Desert Peach.
