      Exactly.

      Being Russian is not an action, nor a principle. It just states the fact that you, as a person, has been born in a place called Russia.

        The Germans civilians that lived outside the concentration camps were as guilty as the guards themselves.

        Obviously I don’t believe the levels of guilt aren’t the same as say Hitler himself but they were guilty nonetheless.
