I was thinking recently of a visit I made to the Holocaust Museum in Washington D.C.
I was thinking about the Nazi Olypmics, and what was written about there.
Amazingly, the people in The United States knew about what was happening to Jews and others in Germany then. Indeed, many of the AAU units in the United States moved to boycott those Olympics. Avery Brundage overruled the group and pretty much bullied many of the atheletes to participate. In the end, while Jesse Owens ended up winning the German Crowd (and probably the best showing of sportsmanship from the German atheletes he beat out), Hitler got his propaganda boost.
So if you're wondering about the utter stupidity of the people around you, look around. There's SOMEONE out there who knows the truth, and if there's someone out there, the truth is out there. Just remember, sometimes you DO have to hunt it down.
