"Members of the party were average people who didn't take part in the genocide"
They knew what the fuck they were signing up for. They're not stupid. I hate the narrative that those who follow conservative/fascist mindsets are sheep, because that isn't true. If you follow nazism, you are a nazi. That is it. If you follow an ideology which does an action at the expense of oppressed groups, that isn't "being average". That's just taking advantage of privilege. I can't believe people would dumb down nazis and conservatives as sheep.

They're just wholesome Nazis like my dear ole mommy
