If you watch enough films of the rise and fall of the 3rd Reich, you may come across the story of a woman who was a died-in-the-wool nazi and Hitler supporter, she was also a Jew. Long story short, she was taken away to a death camp complaining all the way that there had to be some mistake since she was a good German, a nazi, and a firm supporter of Hitler. She had been dismissing Hitlers hate-filled screeds against Jews as mere political rhetoric. She perished in a gas chamber. The moral of the story is that, although Hitler never killed anyone -- in the first world war he served as a messenger --- believe that the hate-filled leaders of any authoritarian group will find the members who will be happy to torture and kill anyone who fits discretion of the "Other".
If that's you, then rest assured your belief, faith and support of the system will not protect you from harm.
