Milton Mayer Archived Message Posted by Mary on March 24, 2021, 5:43 pm 'They thought they were free' The Germans 1933-1945 Milton Mayer 'What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, little by little, to being governed by surprise; to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if the people could not understand it, it could not be released because of national security. And their sense of identification with Hitler, their trust in him, made it easier to widen this gap and reassured those who would otherwise have worried about it.' https://press.uchicago.edu/Misc/Chicago/511928.html Message Thread: Milton Mayer - Mary March 24, 2021, 5:43 pm Re: Milton Mayer - brooks March 24, 2021, 6:08 pm   Searching
