GESTAPO

This is a very enlightening quotation. It shows how far to the right the Nazi Germany had gone. Here, the true believers, describe the notion that Jewish German citizens who had the same status as other German citizens before the Nazis took over as a “liberal position” at a time and culture where “liberal” was a great term of derision as it would become amongst conservatives in America at the beginning of the late 20th century. But in Germany it had become “liberal” to object to a minority of citizens being murdered by the state.
