I believe they fall into the category - often and with many variations - of simply being in the role of the good concentration camp guard simply doing his/her duty for the Parentland....

Ach, Hyman, you haff zimply no idea how difficult iss mein chob hier... lining zer liddle vuns vor der zhowers und zuch vhile bretending do zend zem to zer kas chambers do geep dr SS happy .. ... pass me der schnapps.. und pour ein becker vor yourzelf, mein freund. Domorrow iss Bassover, neh?

A bizarre factor in German psyche is, according to The Guns of August, the infinite preference for order, even if it means behaving illegally....

Good propaganda, Comrade. Only once we "progressives" convince the masses that they're stupid and that we minority of international socialists are the good and just can there be world peace.

You prefer the 'equality' of 'international socialism' for your children/grandchildren where all are 'equalised' as a matter of ideology... or the 'equality' of being forced into the 'capitalist global economy' where all are 'equalised' as a matter of economic convenience for the self-appointed elite (same-same)?

SS -DD (same shot - different designation).

Fact is BOTH reduce the vast majority down to the same level as the lowest without materially raising the level of the lowest. Look around you.

Most of us started out believing what the media told us with the caveat, "Don't believe everything you read in the papers." And this was even before television.

The Internet gave us some alternative views, which now has all but been bastardized by disinformation agents, media, and some government control. It was no accident that the US NSA wanted the world to know that they were spying on us. People now post the truth in fear.

So if you don't believe -- you are a 'conspiracy theorist' or a 'trufer' or a 'tin foil hat'. Just like it was very unfashionable in days of yore not to believe in God, you were an outcast, a weirdo -- so most people kept that opinion to themselves.

I don't blame the sheeple so much these days as the media is so powerful and the Internet is full of rubbish.
And youth doesn't seem to have any punch anymore. Where's the peace movement today? Maybe it's because everybody knows that the real war has been lost and the game is fixed. Like the late, great George Carlin said, "It's a big club, and you're not in it." Maybe everybody knows that.

Comrade, the socialist Commissioners wouldn't appreciate this criticism. Equality is the highest good. Therefore, we international socialists are allowed to kill and maim as many sheeple as we please to achieve our aims. This is progress.
