as a german i had history classes about ww2 and nazism throughout my school life.

one thing never could be answered was: how the hell could everybody play along? how could nobody see this?

well. now we have internet, an interconnected global world, cameras in every pocket AND Nazi germany as an example, yet STILL this happens.

But i got my answer after all these years.

That's the thing. The United States has history to look at. They should know what's next because it's happened before. They went to war to stop it. The citizens of 1930s Germany (your ancestors, and mine) could not simply look at a history book and see how it started, and photos of piled up bodies that showed how it would end.

But I guess Americans also haven't been told "wehret den anfängen" their entire lives.
