Actually we called them Mitläufer (going along with the dominant party in fear of punishment)... but they sure weren't any better than Nazis.
I dont really fault someone for joining a party bcz they don't want to be shot and drug through the dirt.
They are at fault. If everyone that didn’t refuse join because of such reasons didn’t join there would be no one to do the shotting and the dragging.
Well sure, it really only takes about 30% of a population to subjugation, and another 30% to not give a crap. But that's not what we're talking about here. Besides, easy to sit on a phone and be brave and say you'd stand up to an oppressive regime. Harder to do when someone actually points a gun at you.
Assuming everyone coordinates and works together to fight it. It's much easier to kill someone who refuses to join than it is to protect them.
Boy wait until you hear about forced religious conversions.
I've never seen or heard anyone use drug as the past tense of drag in my long-legged life.
Drig, Drag, Drug
I guess it's an irregular use of the word. Maybe where I grew up, or I'm tired today. Dunno.
It's cromulent, don't worry about it.
Oh boy here we go again
Actually you have, right before you wrote that comment.
