“Self-flagellation”??
Do you actually know any Germans?? I do. They seem to be pretty well-balanced.
Stalin and Mao were murderous bastards and if Russians and Chinese were taught about them it would be a healthy development, and we would salute their modern leaders for doing so.
Do I know any Germans? You mean other than my friends and relatives?
Meine Vorfahren sind Deutsch. Ich hatte Deutsch als kleines Kind zu Hause gesprochen. Ich hab’ zweimal in Deutschland gewohnnt. Ja, ein Paar Deutsche kenne Ich schon.
