Mandatory reminder that plenty of people fought the nazis before the extermination camps.
Plenty of people fought the nazis before they started their world war.
Plenty of people fought the nazis without the support of ANY state and in opposition to the nazi state.
Plenty of people fought the nazis before Hitler was even elected.
Everyone that fought the nazis had in common that they didn't get to choose to win. Many of them died on what seemed to be the losing side of that conflict. Their choice was to fight.
Never discount contingency. If people resist more effectively this time, things need not happen the same way.
Evil will still be done, many will still die. But we can prevent the worst.
