His father, Max Platschek, managed a department store in Berlin and earned a relatively comfortable living for his family. As a student, Carlos first attended the German National School, then the independent, Jewish Kaliski School after the Nazis barred Jews from public schools. Carlos’s family escaped Nazi Germany when he was only nine years old, narrowly avoiding the violence of Kristallnacht. His maternal grandfather, Julius Rotholz, had been active in German nationalist politics before Hitler came to power. A member of the Gestapo gave Carlos’s family an anonymous tip that his father was to be arrested. The Platschek family then fled the country, eventually settling in Montevideo, Uruguay. An international Jewish organization, the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, helped the Platscheks settle into the tight-knit Jewish community that thrived in Montevideo. Carlos’s parents opened a business that sold textiles and ready-made clothing for women. As a teenager, Carlos attended a Catholic school and briefly served in the Uruguayan Army. He also joined the Zionist youth movement, Maccabi Hatzair. In 1967, he attempted to make Aliyah¬—immigration to Israel—but the Israeli government declined his application. As a young man, Carlos embarked on a successful career as a textiles engineer. His employer in Montevideo, Sudamtex, paid for him to attend North Carolina State University, where he competed on the soccer team. He met his wife, Evelyn, in Uruguay and they married in 1968. They had one son, Daniel. Carlos worked mostly in Uruguay and Venezuela, but he also travelled—in a professional capacity—to Taiwan and Indonesia. In 1990, Carlos and Evelyn moved to Atlanta.

As Jews who further identified more as Germans than Jews, the Association rallied against Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe, whom it felt reflected poorly on all Jews. With the goal of ultimate assimilation, the party also argued against Zionism. In the 1933 election, the Association gave its electoral support to the DVNP, the Nazi party's coalition partner and later even vowed loyalty to the Nazi Party.
