They weren't all Hitler. They wanted to show their dedication to their country. They were afraid of foreign invasions. They were proud to be Germans. People are, after all, people. They weren't all homicidal maniacs. We all have that capacity for affiliation.

There certainly are Americans who are as bad as those Nazis were. History and social experiments have shown that Americans can commit atrocities. Just hope they don't get the power. Are you naive -- or pretending to be?
