Holocaust survivors were asked, “What could have stopped Hitler?" They ALL gave the same answer: ORDINARY PEOPLE.
1. “We waited for it to get bad enough.”
2. “We underestimated how fast normal could change.”
3. “We trusted respectable people to draw the line.”
4. “We didn’t protect the out-groups when it was still safe to.”
5. “We mistook legality for morality.”
6. “We thought fear was weakness. It wasn’t.”
7. “We believed it couldn’t happen here.”
