wy4786: [...]but you've got to understand that they do not just "blindly follow orders". It's insulting to military people everywhere to make such a generalisation.
That’s exactly my point. I don’t think the reference to Nazis was a low-blow though. Just pointless.
Second, didn't nazis single out even older and disabled germans for their camps?
They did. But the poor following lemming fella thinks such things WILL NEVER happen again. He just knows.

And this is so funny, when you are clearly addressing the point you want WEAK Govt. and country and have free citizens to live as they want, and still being called a nationalist. Hilarous :D But I know "nationalist" argument is still strong in Germany, so I forgive :P

Older ones? Never heard of that. Disabled people? Yes because in their theory they weren’t true Aryans since they could taint the gene pool and what not. Social Darwinism etc.

@keeveek: Here is some food for thought. In Germany the rate of intentional homicide is 70% (!) lower than in your beloved Finland.

And you obviously don’t know the definition of nationalism.

A huge part of the Nazi area what is "known" to the people of today is Anti-German propaganda including a lot of myths and lies. Funny how the people never talk about the 100 million dead in the soviet union ? Blows the mind how dumb the people of today are. Stop watching TV and do not read the newspaper. Both are controlled by the same group of people.

Yes, it is hilarious. And you know why? You're saying about thinking such things will never happen again and want weak govt and citizens to live as they want but do you even know polish history? If not I'd like to point out to you some dates - 1772, 1793 and 1795. Rings a bell?

TV in general, yes, newspapers in general, no. There are good newspapers out there. Some good programs too but those are rarer.

And you say we should all follow Prussia Russia and Austria, and to make strong countries to opress weaker ones. Yeah, we definitely should.

I Polish Respublica is great exampler of free country. People lived good, before barbarians came, haha :D

If all countries were just like I Polish Respublica, it would be heaven on earth.

I think I know where he’s coming from. He’s not necessarily trolling. There are indeed some myths revolving around the Shoa. This obviously doesn’t belittle its atrocious extent but shows how simply anything can and will be distorted to some degree by the public.

If you are a German take out your german passport and look what stands under nationality. What is standing there ?
I can tell you that germany is still occupied up to this very day. There isn't even a constitution.......

Visit Auschwitz-Birkenau and see the myth by your own eyes.
Stop being a fucking retard, keeveek. I did not contest the existence nor the scale of the Shoa, you moron.

You’ve got some low expectations right there. By the way, are you going to address my contribution to your “Let’s throw random numbers at each other” game?

Which passport are you talking about? The old or the new ones?

No, I just showed you what happened when govt was weak and citizens were doing what they wanted. Sorry, scratch that, something like 10 % of citizens - szlachta. Yeah, for them it was heaven, for rest of people living there, not really. Did you ever thought about peasants in this period. Because if you look close enough to the laws of the day, they were living in something very similar to slavery. So we can talk about heaven on earth
@Demut

It doesn't matter which german passport just take it out and look under nationality what is standing there ?

It´s ridiculous to see how dumb is the nationalist ideology, allways need to create an ideal past that never existed (as it is reflected on their mythology). Happens with Serbia and their medieval era, Turkey and the sixteenth century ottoman era, arabs and the abbasi calyphate, USA and the nineteenth century, England and the Empire... We live in the better age of all, never before was so much technology, freedom, health, information... Of course we must improve our societies, but we must resist to the people that using cheap demagogical rethoric, only want to enslave the masses.
Spanish nationalism is one of the dumbest, they idealize the Austrian-dynasty imperium era, that would be the ideal society that should be constructed. Of course that was a time when people died young, there was religious repression, it was a society that didn´t achieve any relevant scientific discovery in any field of knowledge, but yes, we conquered lots and lots of countries and we subdue lots and lots of people. This ideology only offers vanity for being part of the mass (a concrete one), insted encouraging people to be better as individuals.
I suppose that many years later the glorification of the USSR will be part of the Russian nationalism in some way, it have all elements for the rethoric. Huge territorial conquest, great political power, huge scientific achievents (like Sputnik and such)... maybe depending on economic interest they will not refer to the soviet economic model. They´ll see on these achievents but a reflection of the russian "Volkgeist".

The Shoa is the most documented genocide in history, even more that the communist massacres or the armenian genocide.
