Salus, you kind of OOF'd yourself here.
Normally I'm all for sticking it to anti-theists but you're acting like someone being part of an anti-Catholic and white supremacist hate group and domestic terrorist organization like the KKK or a state-sanctioned terrorist organization with a direct link to war crimes, genocide, ethnic cleansing, and general crimes against humanity like the Waffen-SS can't in and of itself be used to judge that person.
Which is fucking ridiculous. I can and will judge anyone belonging to these two groups for belonging to said groups. They made the conscious choice to join them and adopt their hateful spiel and unrestrained violence.
Are you for summarily executing members of the KKK and SS, then? Assuming that every individual in the group are directly responsible for the worst things their group does?
Being a member of the SS is already a crime under international law under which someone could face a number of penalties. The SS is quite a bit different from the KKK, because the SS was the group centrally directed and responsible for the operation of the Holocaust, and that was the reason for its existence. The SS did not exist to do anything other than maintaining Nazi power and implementing Nazi policy.
