    Hey just so you know, it’s total bullshit that the german populace didnt know about the holocaust. Some of the civillians may not have known about the specific mechanics, but many were even aware of the gas chambers masquerading as showers, jews included.

    People tried to hide behind ignorance after the fact, as I have no doubt they will try to do once this latest atrocity is done. I very much agree that simply being aware does not put us into any position different than the german population in WWII, we must strive to do better than their example.

      I think how many German people knew how much of the truth back then isnt too important. Some people knew some things.

      Im more concerned about the strive to do better you mentioned. What does that look like? Do we all need to start neighborhood militias?
