yeah, you don't exactly choose to join youth orgs. your parents choose for you.
The youth organizations would often accuse like teachers, and others, and they could be grabbed, tortured, concentration camped. Before they fleshed out concentration camps they had something sort of like them, regional centers they would take the opposition, others of any type, and interrogate and torture and murder. Really nasty details, they had torture implements made just for certain tortures.
But these youth were not only liable to inform, or accuse people; they were also worthless in the work force. The entire Nazi war machine was running on people that didn't grow up under the nazis, as they were incapable of a great many things that were needed, not the least the engineering and science and logistics, and the military itself.
In the desparate days after the allies and russians were both rushing towards germany, they sent some of these hitler youth brigades fitted out for war against the allies. They rushed in with no real plan, got pointlessly wiped out almost to a man with no effect, completely useless in war, although brave in sacrificing themselves for their great all powerful leader that got them into that position.
Hard to believe putting one asshole in absolute power to rule on scapegoating others for problems didn't work out. So hard to believe we are going to give it another go!
