From 2001 to 2003, people tried getting the Nazi party NPD banned. They sued at the highest court and argued, that it was a danger to the constitution. The court found, that too many members of the Nazi party, including highest ranking leaders, where funded by the state. Specifically, they were paid by the very agency (Verfassungsschutz) that was supposed to protect the constitution. They had funded the Nazis for years and radicalized them under the guise of introducing under cover agents. The court concluded, that a clear distinction between the state and the Nazi party could not be made. And so the case was dismissed. The funding continued.

Earlier this year, the former head of this agency set up his own Nazi party.

An event that comes to mind, is during a meeting where Stalin proposed they should execute basically all the Nazi leadership because they, you know, led and fought for literal genocide and fascist world domination. America and the UK effectively objected (the exact details are contested).

The result was that the worst war criminals were relocated per Operation Paperclip, and the rest of the West German leadership were basically the same Nazi officers and bosses who were in charge pre-war (and also later in senior NATO positions). The leadership didn't fundamentally change in any way, the Nazis got rewarded with cushy jobs, it could barely be called denazification at all.

Until well into the 1970s, the entire Bundeswehr and NATO's West Germany leadership were Nazis. I don't mean they were nationalists voting for whatever the proto AfD was, I mean that they were all actual card carrying Nazis who, prior to gaining their posts in 1945, had been shooting Allied troops and committing genocide, yet somehow avoided Nuremberg

For 30 years post war, the Bundeswehr was essentially just the Wehrmacht all over again in all but name

Michael parenti's blackshirts and reds covers this topic in some detail

Read The Destruction of Reason by Georg Lukács. It looks big but it is actually convertible to a mere 7 hours or so of posting online.

It's been a long time (I think it was an old Proles of the Round Table episode?) but I remember hearing that when Germany reunified the West German state that essentially became the entire German state kicked people out of their houses to return the properties to Nazis and their descendants who'd had it seized in the aftermath of WW2 and German partition, so loath was the West German government to allow anyone to face the slightest consequence for being a Nazi.

EDIT: if anyone is interested in looking into this, the organization responsible was called the Treuhand I think? I believe it means Trust Agency or something like that.

I don't know the history well enough to give any examples that aren't modern, but it's pretty obvious to me that the Germans were never properly re-educated. They're still bloodthirsty assholes perpetuating genocide, they've only changed their target demographic.

Funny video with an example of what you're talking about

The West German department tasked with prosecuting former Nazis was itself more Nazi than the 3rd Reich had managed https://www.timesofisrael.com/german-justice-system-contaminated-by-nazis-in-post-wwii-years-researchers-find/
