History doesnt judge people

Nobody claims that WW2 was because of voters, that the Poland invasion was because of the soldiers

The people leading the propaganda are blamed

And yet, so many people's German grandfathers refused to talk about what they did during the war. Despite the lack of judgment.

History does judge people. The nazi soldiers have caught a ton of grief, even in my lifetime. The israli soldiers currently serving are frequently compared to nazi soldiers both in meme and article form.

Yes the leaders get most (and should) of the blame. But people do remember the other people making it possible. (google the Yaroslav Hunka scandal for a example).

Ill probably be considered a fascist myself in my descendants eyes, having not run for office or started/participated in a violent revolution. (I am holding out hope I might still be able to participate at least).

Nobody claims that WW2 was because of voters

Maybe if folks had been shamed into not supporting the Nazis and their hollow, superficial, hateful "solutions" we wouldn't even have an example with such obvious and clear parallels to draw upon.

Nobody claims that WW2 was because of voters, that the Poland invasion was because of the soldiers

Nobody should be (or seems to have been) fucking absolved for handing their nation to fascists, either.
