(18,795 posts)The situations in Germany and South Africa were not the same - there were huge differences, and many similarities. But to simplify it as Germany one thing and South Africa another, is nowhere close to what I am saying, which you would have discovered if you had simply asked for clarification instead of jumping to conclusions.
Here is one example:
"Not one of the ten Nazis had ever known a Jewish person intimately." according to Mayer.
In South Africa, the opposite was true. Every family had intimate relations with Black people, where often the Black nanny was more of a mother to the children than their real mothers.
I do not know the finer details about German society during those years other than what Mayer wrote, and hence I have come to the conclusion that a lot went on in Germany that was not reported. Unlike South Africa, where it was reported.
Now, I'll sit back and wait for the anti-comprehension, anti-civil-conversing, jumping to conclusions judgement.
