I will bang this drum forever: in THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE FREE: THE GERMANS, 1933-45 Milton Mayer interviewed 10 ordinary Germans after WW2 to learn how fascism took hold. There was never a moment when everyone woke up:
I have a Jewish relative who, as a child, escaped with her family from Germany/Hitler, leaving behind a prosperous business/relatives, eventually making it to the US.
It can/will happen again if we hide our heads in the sand and pretend it can't.
