What's wrong with this picture? BEDiM Day 26

It must be said that the Nazi leaders, including Hitler, had no moral difficulties with homosexuality.  Many of the early figures in the Nazi movement were homosexuals, Ernst Rohm and his strutting cronies among them.  Hitler has plausibly been connected to such activity.
-- Eric Metaxas, "Bonhoeffer", pg 305.

There aren't words.

Among a book loaded with lies and bias and slander, and then this?

SINCE WHEN?

He killed us. He  LITERALLY KILLED US.  And I have never heard the slightest, quietest whisper of 'plausible connection' of Hitler with homosexual activity, (and note the conservative usage of the medicalised term when 'gay' would do in the second sentence.)

Pink Triangles.

Concentration Camps.

HE KILLED US.

If I had had any sympathy at all for Metaxas (which I didn't), that passage would have been the end of it.
