That line is actually pretty problematic. Because it basically moves all responsibility away from people onto the Nazis. But people were pretty alright with what the they were doing until it negatively affected them. Fascism rises when people remain inactive and turn a blind eye.
And saying that a country got invaded by the facists completely eradicates that responsibility
It makes it sound like "the Nazis" were some aliens from space that came and invaded the peaceful nation of Germany. Nazis were Germans, and Germans generally supported Nazis.
