It's the tradition silly. They just want the good old days. They're just conservatives.

Why were there only 22 nazis on trial in Nuremberg? Because the dock could only fit 22 people. How did the denazification go? Of the 1.3million nazis to be prosecuted it was only a fraction of a fraction. Germany now is not what it used to be then, but there are 'conservatives' among the good German people.

I’m an immigrant in Germany. I’m fair skinned, tall, and I speak German pretty well. The number of times I’ve been told that I’m not an immigrant is insane. “Immigrants” include people with Turkish names whose families have lived in Germany for four generations, but not me, who doesn’t even have permanent residency yet.

This reminds me of North Americans of Italian descent who join white supremacist groups when just a few decades ago they were seen as "non-white" by those same groups. Useful idiots.

At least you know where you stand and why they attempt to exclude you from the outgroup.
