  1. Funny I heard the exact oppossit. And that the right has a stronger tendency to autorianism because they like being told what to do. (and it's easier to live if others do the thinking for you).

  2. Let them see this ... maybe they think about it for a while and their conscience kicks in. I thought about this for a while. It's also possible they need to be like that, so that others can see how bad it can come and work actively against this or find a way to prevent it. Same with dictators and so one. Future "you" read or hear about the past and ensure it never happens again or at least less often and therefore improve existence at least for everyone after this. It's a kind of learning process and why we should never forget about the past.

  3. 1) This world view rests upon the idea that body and conciousness (or soul if you prefer) is disconnected from your body. So it doesn't matter and you will not remember anything anyway from former or future "you" and any other "you" is a new body and a new fragment of your total consciousness. ... Yeah I know sounds strange. 2) I thought a little bit about it. I see it as a painfull lesson/bad example about how important the respect for human dignity and the respect for life and about equality. Germans learned something from it, that's why they made a new constitution after Hitler with §1 being "Human dignity shall be inviolable. To respect and protect it shall be the duty of all state authority." making "Dignity" the first and most important principal. All other rights in Germany derive from this. That's why there is no death penalty anymore or why prisoners are treated totally different and why there are less homeless and more social rights in Germany. And that's one reason why Mrs. Merkel allowed 1.5 mio refugees from Syria into the country when they needed a new home and their dignity was at peril. So you could say the bad example for Hitler teached the witnesses and children of the Hitler-Era an important lesson about "a better life" and about "what is important for humans". And in context of this video one step closer to finalize the growth process.
