The real Sophie Scholl (?)
https://translate.google.com/transla..._12832430.html
She initially raved for the Nazis, and was desinterested in the fate of the Jews during Crystal Night. I did not know that. But "it is often more difficult to recognize a path that has been taken as wrong, to turn around and take the opposite path than to have recognized the right one from the start. At first, both Scholls did not even consider going into resistance against Hitler and his terror regime. Both were at first even staunch National Socialists."

I must admit I'd never heard of her.

I heard of her and saw the movie, very brave young women.
As to the point Skybird raised, she is not the 1st person who initially believed one thing, only to later realize the truth was something else, so I don't hold it against her.

Nobody is born a saint, we're all humans and what matters is the choices we've made during our time of which she made a brave one in the end.
It's news to me but not a suprising one since she was a teenager after all. She however did eventually open her eyes and see the rotten truth of what she first cheered and decided to be against it which I applaude.
