Indeed germans by nature are pure evil. theyre nazis, communists, terrorists, poison wells and eat babys for brunch.........

i have to admit that reading a couple of pages of these rants really made me laugh out loud. accusing germans of racism and xenophobia while resorting to the most hilarious and degrading stereotypes is bigotry par excellence.
a bunch of hypocrites insulting a country theyve probably never visited by inventing or perverting facts or playing the good old nazi card (ahh soo convenient.....) .........hysterically funny.

although i find most of the comments rather amusing, the fact that people with very limited knowledge of the events during the third reichs regime spam their uneducated references to ww2 annoys me. there are so many statements that are just wrong on so many levels that its not even worth trying to correct them.
i dont care about the obligatory nazi insults (theyre ridiculous anyway for anyone who has an iq above freezing point) but i think in regard to the many victims who suffered tremendously during that time, a discussion about the nazis shouldnt be held without proper knowledge and niveau. using the term nazi inflationary and while being ignorant to such an extent spoils the memory of the sufferings that so many had to bear back then.
so if u have no or only a very superficial knowledge of the events during that period dont talk about it. youre only abusing the misery of the people back then which truly disgusts me.

nevertheless, there might be some truth to the fact that dark-skinned people are "stared at".
however, i assume that this staring usually isnt meant in a racist way. you have to realize that unlike france or the uk germany wasnt interessted in any colonies until the late 19th century. therefore there arent as many people of african descent living in germany and many germans (esspecially in the more rural areas) simply dont have much contact with non-europeans. these people probably solely stare at you since youre kind of "exotic" to them. theyre curious.
the same thing happened to a friend of mine when he visited japan. hes a 6.5 foot blonde guy and people on the street constantly stared at him. many even took pictures. they acted that way since he looked "exotic" to them as well.
although it may be annoying it probably isnt meant in a hostile way.
