Do you think all Germans are Nazis?

Question

Do you know one? No, am I right?

No.
I´m a German and I´m no Naziand not proud to be German! I hate to be German!!!
But I´m no Nazi

I´m surprised about your answers I expected other ones =o)

Answer 1

No of course not and you shouldn't 'hate' being German. That's as stupid as Tony Blair apologising for slavery.

Answer 2

I am German speaking but I am not German. However what happened in the history of the second world war cannot be forgotten. The Germnans themselves are very sensitive to this issue and respect the human rights more than any other western country because they are watched nonstop. When there are racist attacks anywhere else in the world it is ok, It is ok to smach somebody's head in if he does not belong to your group or race, however people here in Uk call the German nazis, it is an absolute insult to all good Germans and their young people.

Answer 3

That is a really silly thing to say.

All Germans are NOT Nazi's.

Even during the 1940's not every German was a Nazi, but you made out you were a supporter so you weren't carried off and shot.

If you really knew more about which you speak you'd know how disrespectful it was, whether you are a German or not. Some Jews were Germans so how do you justify what you're saying?

I do not pretend to know all things but it would be nice for you to know a little before you said such rubbish.

Answer 4

No, I don't think all Germans are Nazis and I don't know anyone and you are partly right.
Nazism is not a precise,theoretically grounded ideology. It consists of a loose collection of ideas and positions: extreme nationalism, racism, eugenics, totalitarianism, homophobia,anti-semitism, anti-communism, and limits to freedom of religion.
German law forbids the production of Nazi devotionalia, such items usually enter Germany illegally from the USA and the northern European countries. Curent neo-Nazi websites mostly depend on hosting in the USA and Canada and use other terms for Nazi ideas and symbols.
After Germany reunification, neo- Nazi groups succceeded in gaining more followers mostly among disaffected teenagers in Eastern Germany. Many were new groups that arose amidst the economic collapse and subsequent high unemployment in the former East Germany. Violent attacks on foreigners and asylum seekers ensued thus creating a hostile atmosphere for foreigners in some towns.
So in a way, there still exists a pocket of neo-Nazis amongst the Germans just as they also exists such groups even in the UK- picture the BNP. They will always be such people who exhibit such phobias but their hold on people will never surpass that of Hitler's era.

Answer 5

This is a disgraceful question. Germans are Europeans, just like us.

I'm sure some of them ARE nazis but quite a lot of English and Americans are Nazis, too!!

Anyway we will all be on the same side next time.....


I like Germans.

Answer 6

Obviously not! German people are German and nothing else, nazis are not only Germans. I can explain it briefly, the belief nazis had, had grown and spread all over the world, so you can find nazis who live, for example, in Argentina, or Mexico or other parts of the world and they are native of these areas... Germans shouldn't be judged for the past crimes of the nazis!

Answer 7

Not at all. I have met many Germans--my family even had a German exchange student--and not ONE has been affiliated with or proud of the Nazi party or the Nazi history.

Answer 8

Nazism is an ideaology of the National Socialist German Workers Party (or NSDAP) under Adolf Hitler.

However, all Germans are individuals and like all people - no matter what their nationality - they follow their own beliefs. Some do and some don't but that's their choice and all Germans should not be branded as such.

A very ignorant question designed to antagonise!!!!

Answer 9

i am not sure the motivation for this question, but i think i can safely say there are still German nazis, but not very many. there are probably more nazis in the us and uk than in germany. the germans are proud pragmatic people and would not likely allow another utter humiliation like the Holocaust to ever happen again. we should learn from their mistake, for we are well on our way in the us to our own hate regime

Answer 10

Nazi is a word often used by the ignorant and uneducated to identify all that is evil.
This is merely conditioning by propaganda. most pl arent aware of what they stood for or even where germany is on a map.
The principles of naziism are sound.
The german ppl are a cultured and advanced race.
The reasons that made so many of them support naziism in the first place mean that it is likely many support its policies and values now.
Germany as a nation is keen to shake off the stigma of the nazi party but the ppl arent as willing to let it go.It is banned as a prty in germany but it is impossible to keep the movement stifled if it is what the majority want.It will probably rise again under a different name.

Answer 11

I am German-American and Scottish-Irish, and I hate Nazis. I have Jewish friends and I know other Germans who like Jews. Most German people did. They couldn't say anything though, because Hitler would gas them. There were Germans talking about how they almost said things, but them and people they knew were too afraid to say anything. You can say all Scottish people are KKK, because most people in the KKK were descendants of Scottish immigrants. Just don't generalize like that, or you could offend people.
