As a German: Because we have a lot of Holocaust memorials and are taught a lot about it in school, we love jerking each other off about how much we've learned from our past as opposed to say, Japan, who deny the atrocities they've committed to this day.

But of course, all the changes and improvements are completely superficial and meaningless. We are a neoliberal hellhole and maybe the most pathetically loyal US client state in all of Europe, which is saying a lot. Our political parties will performatively decline engaging with the fascist AfD, but still implement all their same policies because we are a capitalist nation in decline.

Germans think because their newscasters speak in a monotonous, boring voice, that what they're being presented is completely unbiased and nothing but the truth. They really do believe themselves to be the adults in the room. Trump derangement syndrome is also huge in Germany, our equivalents of Bill Maher or whatever still make fun of him, the president of a foreign country who hasn't been in office for over 3 years, while self-fellating over how much better our democracy is because instead of 2 identical parties, we have 5.

Germans think they're the most reasonable, objective and intellectual people in the West while blindly following whatever the current US propaganda campaign says, so completely deluded, ignorant and pathetically loyal that we will happily shoot ourselves in the leg to serve American interests.

I fucking hate this country. I hate its self-aggrandizing, pseudo-repentant, pathetic ass-kissing of Israel. I hate how everyone in this country is a staunch defender of the status quo, how everyone loves to dunk on America with a less-than-surface level understanding of why America is the way it is and complete ignorance about how we're on the exact same track but maybe 3 years behind. Even our "left" loves Israel because there is not a single person in this country who understands literally anything, it's all fucking vibes. Israel could literally come out tomorrow like "We have decided to rebrand the war against Hamas as "Holocaust 2"" and we would lick their assholes for it.

Germans are probably the dumbest, most ignorant and at the same time most self-important people on this godforsaken planet. The dumbest American is 10x more curious about the world than the smartest German. If the US told us to, we would happily exterminate the Jews again, our news would tell us that the Jews started it and that would be enough for the average German to feel proud and righteous about it.

KKKrackers think they have authority on every subject

It is absolutely the most galling shit and every imperial core lib does it.

"Yes we did some horrible things in the past, but we've learned not to which makes us wiser than everyone else"

vee hev tou protekt te joos in Israel vrom te eevil muslims!

Edit: But seriously, Germans are entirely obsessed with the idea of Israel absolving them of criticism. Germans in Europe are seen as brash, obnoxious know-it-alls who think everything in Germany is better. Superficially they are an extremely obnoxious people who should (and need) to tamper down their voice and brashness. Under the hood however they are extremely insecure and have the need to compensate the failures of modern Germany and their ancestors with moral bombasticism. Israel is a perfect surface to project their supposed moral superiority. After all, aren't they nobely supporting the Jewish cause by their uncritical support of Israel? How could Germany be antisemitic if they are taking the morally superior stance of protecting jews from scum Muslims?

The only time you should ever hear a German's opinion on genocide is if you want to know how to conduct one.
