> German people turned a blind eye to what was going on.
Yes, that is what I said was the cause.
That is different from what you said which is that people protesting in their personal live but being unwilling to discuss as part of their professional lives (i.e. compartamentalizing) was the cause.
Those germans should have been protesting and fighting back wherever possible, but it absolutely wasn't a limiting of protests to non-professional contexts that caused the Holocaust.
> Also let me just note that your casual attempt to accuse me of antisemitism in a thread LITERALLY ABOUT people being casually and unjustly accused of white supremacy is just "chef's kiss" level hypocrisy. Well done.
I stand by the assement of the stance that I put forward; it borders on anti-semitism. It sounds like that stance might not be one you intended to take. If so, I suggest re-reading what you wrote to see how it appears you are taking that stance.
If you disagree with my assessment of that stance, please explain whitewashing the german response to the rise of the Nazis doesn't border on anti-semitism because what that stance equates to for me is saying: "The germans didn't believe reprehensible things or disregard the humanity of those headed to concentration camps, they just let their professionalism stand in the way of speaking out against the Nazis."
