Has anyone watched the documentary "Ordinary Men: The Forgotten Holocaust "?
I started it but I haven't mustered the courage yet given the subject thw atrocities committed by average people in Nazi Germany. These weren't true believers in a demented ideology as much as regular people who yielded to group pressure.
That's the part that scares me.
I cannot watch stories that prove man’s inhumanity to man. Breaks my spirit.
@LnzyHou I find cautionary tales instructive. It helps shut up all my family claiming I am overreacting to simple differences in politics. Deja News and Ultra podcasts by Maddow opened my eyes to how close we came to the wrong side of WW 2.
It doesn't take much for evil to get a foothold and too many remain willfully ignorant today. The "I don't get involved in politics" crowd pave the way for ideologues to take control.
From Sarah Kendzior:
@S_r_stone
Too many cautionary tales for too many years. It’s exhaustingly repetitive.
Limiting my exposure is self preservation.
