US patriot resistance to covid fascism reminded me of this Woody Allen article, "I was Hitler's Barber" (1971)
"I have been asked if I was aware of
the moral implications of what I was doing. As I told the tribunal at
Nuremberg, I did not know that Hitler was a Nazi. The truth was that for
years I thought he worked for the phone company. When I finally did
find out what a monster he was, it was too late to do anything, as I had
made a down payment on some furniture. Once, toward the end of the war,
I did contemplate loosening the Führer's neck-napkin and allowing some
tiny hairs to get down his back, but at the last minute my nerve failed
me."
