I could go on about the inner workings of HYDRA, the SS, the Nazi Party, and so on. I'd actually love to; I love debating. I have more points and more deductions and more rhetorical questions that I personally feel validate my own thinking. But since you guys are asking for proof right here and now, I have it. The S.H.I.E.L.D. Handbook Chapter One: The Red Skull, Founder of HYDRA, was a big fat freakin' Nazi. It says so right there in the book. It says so and Ward never denies it when confronted with that fact.
