The later term that Freud adopted to this super ego has become  synonymous in people's minds with conscience the idea of  the super ego as  the  the role of conscience and presum presumably that's another aspect of the same thing and er  Serg Moskovicy in his excellent book Age of the Crowd erm which is on the reading list which I can thoroughly recommend  in discussing this point of how Freud sees the leader as the kind of super ego of the followers quotes one of the Nuremberg war criminals, I forget which it was now erm  Goering or Goebbels or one of these er people who when asked of the Nuremberg war tribunals  why did you do the things you did, replied Adolf Hitler was my conscience and that's er that's a very erm good example of this idea of er how the  the role of conscience can be transferred from the individual to the, to the leader of the group and I suppose Dean you would say erm illustrates one of the greatest dangers of group, group membership because er obviously if  if that happens in a group, then erm individuals are to some extent erm surrendering their moral self-responsibility and of course if Freud's insight is correct, then there was an element of truth in  in this  in this excuse Adolf Hitler was my conscience.
