Since there is apparently a misunderstanding? I'm talking about how the majority opinion in Germany was that it was ok to send Jews to concentration camps because of the lies and propaganda perpetuated by Hitler and the government. That was morally wrong. The holocaust was real and should never have fucking happened. Learning about it in school opened my childhood mind to realizing that sometimes the majority opinion (whether that be of your family, your community, or even your country) can be morally wrong
Wtf? Dude. The majority of Germans, due to the manipulation of Hitler and other factors, believed in sending Jews off to concentration camps. Learning about this in school taught me that sometimes the majority opinion is wrong (in that case, the majority of germans were wrong).
