    Don’t be an Antisemite

    (/s obv.; as a German we’re shackled and according to our leader standing 100% behind anything they do, even if we don’t)

      It’s been 80 years since the holocaust time to let it go and if anyone doesn’t agree with that then go and hold all the other countries accountable for their genocides.

      America, Russia and China just of the top of my head haven’t been held accountable for any of their genocides and there were plenty more.

      Antisemitism is used as an excuse to commit war crimes these days so it is worthless to me.

      And also Merz is a dickhead that is ruining Germany, he was the biggest mistake since Merkel and that’s saying something.

        Germany (the government) is very much over the guilt of WW2. The fact is that it was never denazified after WW2 and it was Nazis that were then put into power (again) who built the foundations of the current German government.

        Don’t tell him he’s a dickhead, he’ll sue.

        Regarding the antisemitism situation. Yes it’s a flat statement that can be used to deflect anything. A thing like that should not exist and is yet another layer on top of the past that will haunt us at some point.

        I am young enough to not even have been remotely involved in that part of Germanys past yet that past was hammered into our brains in school. However I always rejected the personal blame.

        On the other hand I am very disgusted on the Nazi rise in Germany and also the world. But as the current politics are going it’s no wonder the public is not playing along.

          If he would put half as much effort into solving problems in Germany that he would trying to sue me he might actually achieve something, but it’s easier to focus on trivialities.

          And the Nazis rose because the population was desperate and didn’t have anything to lose so they lashed out against the world and the world beat them a second time because the dumb Austrian used all the momentum at the start of the war and focused on imaginary goals if he stopped after 1-2 years and focused on the industry they built up instead of just rampant murder Germany would have been incredible but i guess murder was easier until the momentum was gone and it all collapsed.

          Still it gave Germany a few decades of world class industry but it seems like it’s stagnating, too many dumb political decisions have ruined it.
