Important distinction is that everyone posting in this chat would have been a nazi if they grew up in Nazi Germany. That is how insidious it is. Not one of you would have been ‘part of the resistance’. Its horrific how easily people are whipped into a frenzy.

BS. There are still a handful of decent and ethical people in the US. They are a minority but they still exist.

I think a lot of people don’t understand what it is like growing up in a regime like the actual Nazi one. They fantasise about being ‘the resistance’ but it is far more difficult when you live under such horror.

The downvotes kinda prove ny point tbh.

That still doesn't justify their actions tho.
If my hypotethical Nazi self got all my current memories 10 seconds before someone in the resistence shot and killed me, I would support their action, I deserved it.

Nothing in what I said tried to justify their actions. I’m trying to convey that what people see as “nazi” actually are people who have been suckered into the horrific mindset much like the German public were. They aren’t always bad people, just brainwashed. Look at the downvotes I’m getting. “It couldn’t be me! I’m absolutely virtuous, I could never!” Actually, its horrible but it is possible that the majority here would fall for it. It is the most venomous and insidious brainrot there is. You would likely not be immune.
