One of my posts--on the Nazi Revolution--has taken off a bit. More boosts and favorites than I accustomed to. Most seem understand I am not only talking or thinking abt Germany here.
Grappling with Nazism means getting familiar w ordinary Germans. Milton Mayer, the American journalist, tried to do this in the 1950s in a book titled They Thought They Were Free. Important read.
There something in his foreword worth contemplating, whether you're American, Israeli, German, Russian, or Chinese...
