So you instead suggest buying from Ford and GM, two companies that provided Nazi Germany with huge amounts of war material and continued to produce for Hitler while he rampaged across Europe. One of the first signs of an impending war was the fact that Ford began churning out military trucks from its' factories in full force. And Ford became one of Nazi Germany's largest suppliers of military equipment.
Ford and GM trucks, which made up almost 100% of the military trucks that German had, were crucial to Germany's Blitzkrieg war effort. Without their trucks for transport and supply, Germany's war machine would have ground to a halt. Their factories in Germany and Vichy France relied on forced labor and were staffed by prisoners of war and even Jews from nearby concentration camps.
Henry Ford himself is even mentioned in Hitler's Mein Kampf as a "great man" for he was a prominent anti-semite in the US. Henry Ford was violently anti-semitic if you didn't know. He was even awarded Nazi Germany's highest honor, the Grand Cross.
And, to this date, Ford is the only manufacturer not to apologize for its' role in WW2 nor pay any reparations.
So buy from Ford, a company that supported Hitler financially on his poltical rise to power, a company that shipped rare war materials like rubber and oil to Germany to build weaponry, a company that built most of the trucks that enabled the German army to roll through Europe, a company that used forced labor to produce those trucks, a company that expressly wished that Hitler won so that they could have his business and did everything they could to ensure that happened, and a company that profited financially from the production of war material to benefit the enemy.
And I'm not saying that as a Ford-hater. I and my immediate family have always owned Ford (or Ford subsidiary) for the past 50 years and I have a fair amount of money in Ford stock. But I do recognize reality, and the reality is that Ford and GM supported the German war effort as much as BMW and Benz did and certainly more than Toyota and Honda did for the Japanese. If you want to avoid purchasing from companies that supported the enemy in a time of war you might have to stick with South Korean companies like Hyundai.
