The Nazis executed my Grandpa for refusing to continue fighting in a war they forced him to participate in, in 1944.

At the time, you could be beheaded simply for saying you didn't believe the war could be won anymore. They called it "Wehrkraftzersetzung".

You can still resist without immediately forfeiting your life. You might regret not having done it when it is too late.
