Just ordinary people living their lives. That's what makes the nazis so fucking horrifying. How they managed to make their people disassociate from the atrocities.

Humanity has rolled along in its uniform ugliness for all of known history. The idea of godliness, or any other aspect of divinity imbued in our mortal forms is a mere mockery of reality- the earliest, most essential marketing spin.
