There was this question after WW-2 about what was wrong with the Germans that they supported and obeyed such an obvious monster. American's, they said, were not like *that*. Americans would never go along with evil orders, they said. Too individualistic, too principled., too brave
Then Milgram did his thing, and we just swept that under a big rug, bc it was embarrassing as fuck
And here we are facing the same monster, and there's the obedience and support bubbling up among us
