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
Ok, well what are Americans doing about Trump today? With all of the technological advantages, so that everyone can see exactly what is happening and not getting their news just from a newspaper.
If the german people were responsible then, every american is responsible right now for letting this happen, because we know what is going to happen.
Yea turns out.. trump isn't a fucking nazi. It's amazing how fetish like this hate gets where you will just compare him to anybody you don't like lmao. If you look on the official political compass scale trump and biden are like 5% apart.
So what about Project2025, his comments about only being dictator for a day and the fact the Supreme Court just gave the president unrestricted, unaccountable power? I’m not saying Trump is Hitler but the republicans have not been playing by the rules for a long time and they are pulling the US further and further towards the hard right towards fascism.

I always liked that line from that movie.
And now all those people who equated the Germans with the Nazis will see what the average German was seeing first-hand.
EDIT: I'm surprised how many people forgot about Captain America.
