Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [1285]
The GDR was a state built on opression, full of hypocrisy and contradictions and it encouraged lies about its' opponents.
You know it...I know it....thing is you will never hear that from their former leaders and their current sympathisants! They will tell you that YOU are the bad one, the one with not enough education, the Nazi, the paid agent or just to stupid....maybe even all at once!
Do you think the people working the KZ Sachensenhausen memorial ...
I'm not sure about that....and what happened in Sachsenhausen. Höcke didn't deny the Holocaust, didn't he! And I know though that the "Erinnerungskultur" in the GDR was already a different one than the one Wessies are used to...for example Jews played barely a role....not much about a Holocaust, but all about the brave Soviets and Communists...so...
Do you advocate that we should put the "performance" of the Wehrmacht in the spotlight of our remembrance instead of the various crimes they commited?
That's the core of the misunderstanding yesterday, I think....why "instead" and not "also"?
I totally support the teaching in schools about the big history....but our Opa's are our own ancestors! Researching their lifes is more than a war crime, both should be possible at the same time!
Instead they went the opposite route and purged those politicians who tried to reign them in.
They didn't start out that way....
...Die AfD wurde 2013 als europaskeptische, wirtschaftsliberale und nationalliberale Partei gegründet....The old "elites" are as much to blame for their radicalization as the party leaders themselves. I still remember the mocking and ridicule of them in the beginning....nobody tried to take them seriously, that they maybe even had a point....
