“You may think it best that the Germans think of themselves as unredeemable.”
You have a beautiful imagination. I have many German friends.

You didn’t actually disagree with me. Perhaps your German friends are your friends because they think themselves unredeemable. That’s why you like them.
(They would be the inverse of a gentile making friends with a self hating jew—because said jew is self hating—why? Perhaps such self hatred has its charm. Like the way chinese men once liked chinese women who bound their feet to make their feet small.)
In general I would say self hatred does not serve anyone—least of all its practitioner.
Good Lord, but you do have a febrile imagination. You have constructed a detailed ecosystem where you not only completely understand people you’ve never met and but also can even, with great confidence, reveal their hidden psychological underpinnings.
Germans comfortable in their own skins? They must be self-hating!
