Germans have had the “nationalism” beaten out of them after two world wars, and especially by the global elites from the past 70 years or so.
Why can’t Germans simply love their own country and be proud of her (or his—it is the Fatherland, after all) accomplishments?
Instead, they have to whisper to each other, and yes, the occasional American (me) that they do, just like any other people do. Else they’re called imperialists, HRE evangelists, Teutonic knights or worse—Nazis.
