Paulus wouldn't do the obvious because Hitler said no retreat.
The Germans are considered to be a smart people, but how many blindly listened to this evil dictator even when it cost thousands and thousands of lives.
It's incredible to think about what the German people did and didn't do in Hitler's name.
Then you think of our country and how some blindly follow the leader. Makes you think.

Meh, Hitler basically fired his top general and he considered himself one. The most eye opening impact for me is that if Hitler would have listened to his top brass they probably would've won the war.

It's because the German Weimar Republic had strict representational legislature. Most countries have a certain barrier of entry for a party to get representation to keep out insane political parties. Let's say 6-7%!of the vote.

Cult of personality. Humans are naive and trusting of political, religious leaders. It is our fatal flaw. It still amazes me that more people simply don't have the ability to think for themselves in this day and age and with all of the information available to us at our fingertips.
