Good points, but isn’t that also the thing? Even if it was temporary, they were duped by someone promising them comfort in exchange for their individual liberties.
Look, my viewpoints on World War II probably aren’t welcome around here. The things that I know about 1930s Germany, and what pushed people to make the decisions they made, and what types of books it were that they decided to burn weren’t about Clifford the big red dog. They burned filth, they burned pedophilia, and no I’m not defending what happened but they were pushed by the same type of people that are pushing our own society now into perversion, subversion, etc.
But I do think it might be instructive that the Italian people were once “duped” into giving away their freedom for protection. It might stand to reason that some of them would like to do it again.
