First, Marxists were moral relativists, and contributed more than the Nazis to human misery. Secondly, a good number of Nazis believed a bastardized version of Nietzsche's moral relativism, and were the most horrific of mass criminals. It is true that beliefs were involved, but not per se moral beliefs. Thus, relativists have created more havoc than anyone else...... In any event, relativism does not save one from strong preferences,not even strong political preferences. Rather, it makes it less likely that one will care if one's preferences comport with moral truth. What you consider a matter of philosophy is merely a matter of temperament. People are motivated to rape, pillage, and murder without moral sanction, why should they not do what they want on a larger stage?
