We expect them to have set aside their own comfort and perhaps their own survival fIt is obvious and often mentioned that if the average German could have found away to set aside their dejection from the collapse of the Wiemar Republic and rejected the policies of Adolf Hitler, the lives lost in World War II and in the prison camps may have been spared. We see footage of the camps right next to sleepy little towns and the skeptical narrator without fail questions the veracity of the people that claim that they knew nothing about what was going on in the camps and they had no idea what that smell was.

It is easy in hindsight and as someone who was not there to admonish them for their impotence. I ask you to consider the economics of the time of the collapse of the Wiemar Republic. Germany was in shambles and the average German was suffering economically and emotionally disheartened by the failure of their efforts at liberal democracy. Adolf Hitler filled their stomachs.
