Germany's greatest failing was not stopping the Nazis when....


....they were still stoppable, when they were engaged in all the red flag behavior that should have caused normal people to step up and say STOP.

People today are reacting the way they do because the things that are happening now echo the rhetoric that led the Nazis to power, combined with the complacency of the German people given the country's economic resurgence.

I.e., the drama about ICE acting like Nazis is because they are doing extra shitty things that feel like, if not corrected, they are the first steps down a slippery slope.

It's a rational response given humanity's repeated passivity and complacency in the worst of the world's dictators in the past.
