I hate German society (but not necessarily German indeviduals)...

There are some good Germans that's true - but I still find it impossible to respect German society. My reasons are -

1) The Nazis didn't disappear they were absorbed back into German socitey - with the full aid an co-operation of German citizens (the same citizens that voted for them in the first place). That is why so many Nazi war criminals were never bought to justice.

2) Modern German society prides itself on being an economic super-power - but their economy is build on revenues taken from the victims of WW2 - most hauntingly from Jewish victims of the Holocaust. I find that deeply disturbing especially as they have such a big Neo Nazi problem and do so very little to help those in need (ie people seeking asylum).

3) Germans are inherently arrogant, self serving and self pitying people - many of them see themselves as a persecuted race (rather than regarding their status in the modern world as being something they have inherited from their forefathers - and doing everything they can to remedy that damage).

4) So many people think that the things that constitute the English as a socitey are merely the products of German tribes and of German language - but anyone with even a basic knowledge of English will know that we are a mix of many languages, creeds and races. We only inherited a German influence because of the Roman invasion - which to my mind makes us more Roman than German (read Shakespear and tell me that we are the product of Germany).

My best friend at college had German parents but I still find it impossible to forgive the Germans for what they did to so many millions of people - especially as they do so very little to tackle their Neo Nazi problem and allow people from other races into their country.
