I know I'm too much of a coward to have been pure of heart..... my sad reality, I live atrocities every day, in my day to day. The big atrocities are only more evident.

I don't think I would have had the balls to do it. Cause one failure meant = 100 % death.

Would you have been too scared to question German policies and turned a blind eye towards genocide. Or would you have been part of the resistance and tried to help?

I guess it would largely depend on if you had a family. You would not want them harmed. But, you would not want to set a bad example either. How could you let your family live while so many other families were destroyed?

I would have thought it was end times, and I would have done something I think. Maybe take pictures of camps at least, and send them overseas some how. Something.

This is easy to say if you aren't in the situation, also a Camera wasn't a thing everybody had back then. And a lot of people didn't even know camps existed.

Also I understand the people who voted for Hitler alot, he promised so much after the last fu**ed up years, he made jobs, etc.... (even if it was the War Industry).

We had the first Autobahn cause of him. Just looking outside from it  then I think he really looked like a great man to be honest if you lived back then.

I guess that is true. I watched a show about Germany during the war a few months back. Most did not know about it. They were either proud of their country or were just waiting for it all to end. I am talking about the War.

But I can only think, that if you lived anywhere near one of these things, or saw the jews on the trains, you would have an idea of what was going on.


A lot of people (obviously not everyone) appreciated seeing jews getting treated like that cause of the propaganda.



If I give my honest opinion about it I'll likely get banned.

well i think i would try to get out, i wouldnt want my family or i to end up in a camp either. im glad my great grandparents left back in early 1900s before that insane crap happened.



 

You would've either died, be compromised by german propaganda, or one of the races considered lesser by the germans and work your ass off until you died or freed at the end of WW2.

Lol, yes. Best you don't!

 

We would have been raised to be Nazi's from youth. It's not if you where, it's you where. You'd accept that way of life and accepting it with ease just like you do with your own life now.

Where trolling isn't so awesome anymore.



I'm a Jew with disabilities and liberal ideas. I doubt the Nazis would want me even if I were insane enough to tolerate them.
