It was what Pastor Bonhoeffer’s mother feared about the Prussian school system (the one we have BTW).
She felt if the children are put into this system younger than 8 or so—that they will be brainwashed and conditioned into a worldview antithetical to Christianity-—(individual worth and dignity).
She understood how young children form character (worldview) and that they will believe the “authority figures” version of Good and Evil.
What she understood was that the Prussian system conditions into “group think”, an emotional way which negates the intellect. Feelings will be forced by conforming to the “majority” and the teachers worldview. If the teachers praises things which are evil, the child will learn to feel ‘good” about evil. It is BF Skinner association technique that our schools have used to destroy the moral feelings from “Good’. They force children to feel “good” about “evil”—like they have to take “Pride” in sodomy and “praise” the vile acts or be ostracized by the “group”.
The Germans had God removed by the German Postmodernists whose ideology dominated Germany by the early 1900’s where the culture was vulgar and degraded continually (Weimar Republic) and people where “conditioned” to see other human beings as a “means to an end” (Marxist—opposite of Christianity).
They were taught to think in terms of a Collective —you eliminate the useless eaters-—to get rid of individualism, through the Prussian system.
They were just going along with the masses and what they were taught—Ideology MATTERS. Certain cultures are OK with evil acts. All history proves it. That is why the Founders hated democracies and loved Christian Ideology which is based on Reason and Faith (because of St. Thomas Aquinas who used Reason and Faith which was “reasoned”) . Germans were ruled by emotion, never “intellect’ (Reason). They used Reason to justify Evil.
It was easy for the Germans to not “help” and “look the other way” because character had been beat out of them in the Prussian school system and by their toxic culture which glorified evil and dysfunction. Homosexuality was the National Vice of Germany in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s and all their entertainment by 1919 was vile and vulgar and degraded human beings.

How right you are. This indoctrination of our children into the idea that evil is something for which to strive is the root that is rotting our nation... IMHO
