This is a discussion of group complicity accusations, and since only individuals can be complicit, all such accusations are deeply flawed. To tell how flawed a given accusation is, we need to consider to what extent it's an accusation against a group as a whole vs. an accusation against some subset. For example:
"Israel's foreign minister Yisrael Katz says that Poles were complicit in the Holocaust. If that is true, then surely, the Jews were also complicit in the holocaust?"
That's a false inference. You switched from "Poles" to "the Jews". In English, adding the "the" makes it an accusation against most or all Jews. Saying it without the "the" leaves it ambiguous as to whether he was accusing a few Poles, or a lot of Poles, or most Poles. Couldn't say if definite articles have the same semantic effect in Swedish.
