What an interesting misinterpretation.

Nobody would use "I was just eating food on a regular basis" as a defense against blame for misdeeds, which the GP's quote (referencing the Nuremberg defense and similar things events of disavowing blame for evil acts) would be commenting upon.

The interesting misinterpretation is in the original use of the quote in this thread - it cannot be used to assume anything in general about people who are just doing their jobs. Michtbaum may possibly be able to make the claim that these particular job-doers are a threat to civilization, but not by offering up this quote.
