I think whites and not good whites is a good way of putting it. Being a not good white mice elf :>)

"is that what you are getting at?"
Tried to get at there were various subgroups of (not good) whites for whom
"I don't see how Nazi Germany was much bad for whites" never applied.

"...and when I said 'in the end', I didn't just mean that in the end the circle grew smaller. but that most people are not cruel... so the cruelty they allowed (yes, allowed) themselves to be caught up in, in the end was a stain on their souls and they knew it,"

'Allowing' is more pertinent to corruption of souls than 'doing' is. Peops who do bad stuff hardly ever get very far and are often forced to reconcile the bad do'ns. In modern times the allowers rise in the ranks and often become powerful and elite within society ... politicians for example. They may know it but they rarely, maybe never, cop to any responsibility for the harm done. Our politicians allow lots of stuff, it's practically a job description, 'you must allow stuff in order to be allowed to do stuff.'
