But, unless you know something that wasn't in the article, a scurrilous one.
To be born in Brazil in 1922, his parents must have moved at least a decade before Hilter had any sort of power. Nazis fled to Brazil because there was already a large German community there.
And Germans are actually all over South America. Chile, Peru, etc. And North America too (I believe Germans make up the largest migrant group to the US, although what areas that includes is obviously somewhat controversial as Germany didn't exist until 1871 and it's borders have changed dramatically over the years..it is the largest self-reported ancestry group in the US at least, although I suspect that include lots of what is now Poland).
Ironically, given the context of the accusation, many of these migrants to South America were Jewish. But many were not, many were Christians looking to start millenarian communities, many were looking to flee the poverty or lack of land, a new life, whatever.
Remember too that Argentina in 1900 was richer than the US. South America seemed like the next big thing. Times change.
