Well, my point was: being on drugs is not taken as an excuse for deeply-held fascist politics.
I can't find that Bowie ever recanted his Nazism; that is just a fan mythology. He just said in later years he'd become "apolitical," which I take to mean he didn't wish to speak of politics. The only evidence he was not anti-Semitic is that he played a Jewish event once.
I wrote a post back in 2019 on Bowie's dark side.
