Wermacht soldiers, most likely the majority, were the guys who got pulled into the doings of the Nazi regime. Not nazis, coerced into nazi biddings. I cant call them nazies with a serious face.
Tell me statistics. You state it was Nazi top to bottom. The article states “many officers and average soldiers”. The latter is closer to what I stated.
Understandable, thank you! I was guessing 20-30% with it being higher among officers, but I do not read that much on it.
Although I still cant be convinced on you really getting what “fighting for” and “better choice” means in this context.
I lived by myself for years without much of a social interaction in my usual week or month and very often had the most fucked up thoughts in that deprived state.
Are they nazis when viewed as part of the system? Can be argued. On a personal level? Locked in their little miserable bubble? Suicidal and homicidal come hand in hand. I dont think they had any advanced thoughts on it in the winter on the steppes while their hand froze to ice. They were deprived, fucked up murderers.
The Wehrmacht was Nazi from top to bottom
