Ask any foreigner what they know of the German people, and you'll get answers like "very neat and tidy, organized, self-disciplined, great at engineering and making high-quality products and luxury cars."
Maybe. We also think of them as having participated in ss and nazi youth and turning a blind eye to ghettos and camps. They were highly organized, efficient and tidy in their killing using mass Graves, well engineered railroads and gas chambers. They also did some high quality crimes against humanity in human experiments. The very best.
And the current generation is so liberal because they are frozen in fear of being called nazi.
Now I don't trust our history is fully right anymore but the majority of normies do and the stigma persists.
Plenty of apathy. I know a ton of people who won't talk politics, hate discussions like that, shrug their shoulders and dont vote because they don't care or go vote without research.
We will be forever tarnished as a people in the same way that Germany was after ww2. How could we allow it to happen they will say?
I'm not sure we can restore our image. Or the image we had in ourselves of bravery and courageous fighters.
We went down from apathy.
I will still try. I love most of our people and history.
Germans aren't tarnished "as a people".

Most people are under 70 and so don't immediately think WWII when they hear the word Germans.
I do.
Not from apathy. From trust. We trusted people who said, "Trust me."
