On this 82nd anniversary of D-Day, remember: The way we wonder why Germans didn’t stop Hitler is exactly how the rest of the world views Americans and Trump today.
@Strandjunker The hardest part for me, is wondering how many people hated Hitler after the war, not because they thought he was wrong, but because he didn't succeed.

But the Germans had been fed certain self-defeating (or self-serving) narratives for decades which helped pave the way for someone like Hitler. The mass consciousness of the public was in a weird place. Any of this sound familiar?
