I don’t seem to read anywhere where the Politicains in the 1920s-1930s German Weimer Republic being held to account for that screw-up? Someone correct me if I am wrong.
They weren’t armed and informed like we are. Apples and oranges.
I guess it could depend on what you mean by "being held to account".
You never heard of the "Night of the Long Knives"? Kurt von Schleicher? Weimar politicians in exile, some later sent to concentration camps, having their property expropriated? All political parties but the NSDAP banned and their assets confiscated.
You never heard of any of that?
