Maybe you’re misunderstanding DarkCloud’s comment? DarkCloud is not saying Hitler was right. DarkCloud is saying the Israeli supreme court just ruled that Hitler was right, and saying that is completely fucked up. Which I think you agree with.
Sigh. This was already explained by someone else. It’s called cynical sarcasm, (or bitter sarcasm, rhetorical provocation, hyperbole, provocative irony, etc.) It’s meant to express outrage by drawing an extreme comparison, not agreement with it. The “just made” phrasing is part of that - they don’t actually think history was undone and revised, and its a bit disingenuous or outright obtuse to interpret it that way.

But they didn’t say that the court ruled that Hitler was right, they said that the court made Hitler right. There’s a huge difference.
