Yeah, let’s make fun of people trying to do something and instead sit on our ass, not go to vote, and say dumb shit like “we’ll change the system by not participating in it” while buying everything ads tell you to buy. So much better.
In 1936, the people trying to do something about Hitler weren’t the same people signing up for an SS uniform. They were organizing opposition outside of the Nazi party.
I have friends who work in federal government, and I would laugh if any of them told me they were planning to “change things from the inside”. MF your entire department exists at the whim of a fascist president. You can’t change shit in that situation. Best case is you can maybe improve a couple of outcomes that are in your direct line of work. That’s nice and all, but it doesn’t change the system.
For all the WW2 Nazis who developed a conscience and helped people where they could: Good for them. However, it didn’t change anything about the system they took part in. The destruction of German Nazism came from external action.
