that most people demonize the soldiers and wonder how anyone could ever get pursuaded jnto doing smth so horrible. but they were kids and not only were they forced under physical threat, they had propaganda that bled into literally every aspect of their lives

the issue is the institution that used such tactics. id argue tho that 99% of people if born in that exact same situation, facing the same threat, completely surrounded by the same propaganda from a super young age, they would turn out the same way

TLDR: its dangerous to assume a bunch of evil people happened to live in germany at the time. that implies the situation couldnt be repeated today somewhere else. propaganda is a strong thing
