Weirdly enough that was largely the most negligible effect, most of the ones that were absorbed were revanchists not ideological Nazis. While we can debate the morals of dead men they weren't the worst of the worst, those were left in Germany or fled to South America and Apartheid Africa. Most of the ones absorbed just really wanted to fuck over the Soviets, which at the time was also the goal of NATO and Yugoslavia.
The ability of Nazis to cosplay as "normal" conservatives never ceases to amaze me. The utter lack of empathy. The pure joy in making "the others" suffer. Nothing seems to alert conservatives. Even when they position themselves as "just revanchists" they are believed. Breathtaking.
Why would Yugoslavia actively want to duck over the soviets
Stalin kept trying to kill Tito, also a bunch of boring economic shit.
Rabbit hole alert: The Non-aligned Movement.
i'm more or less aware, but as far as i knew their whole thing was noninterference in other countries' affairs.
