After the Second World War we are the way the World - or at least the West - wanted us to be. Don't blame your creation. ''Never again must war arise from German ground.'' '''And so we got pacifistic, pluralistic, moralistic. Sometimes to such a degree it annoys our partners - and even ourselves.''' Sometimes our own Remembrance Culture with its strongly state-medial and political - therefore dead boring - rituals goes ourselves on the nerve. We try to get along with everyone. With USA, with Russia. With Israel, with Palestine (unofficially). | After the Second World War we are the way the World - or at least the West - wanted us to be. Don't blame your creation.

As part of the '''indoctrination of humanistic values''' school classes are dragged to old Nazi concentration camps.

A normal educated citizen is meant to always remember history and be fair on everyone. What sounds good in theory can result in '''bizarre conflicts in society''', sometimes people are then named being hyper moralistic. People from the right spectrum wear the support for state Israel like an armor. At the same time they have no problem in excessively criticizing other foreign persons, especially when they are immigrates. They seem to believe that when they are pro-Israel they cannot be racists. On the other hand there are people from the left spectrum who have a blind eye for problems immigrates cause. For examples clan criminality, mafia, Arabic/pro-Palestine antisemitism were problems ignored for too many years since their fight back did not fit into the German welcome culture. The [[wp:2021_Israel–Palestine_crisis|Israel-Palestine crisis]] and the [[wp:2021–2022_Belarus–European_Union_border_crisis|Belarus-EU border crisis]] in 2021 shook Germany's self-image. As a result the failed migration and integration politics are finally realized through essentially all political parties. Yet, much work is to do to grind away ideological hardening and formulating improved arrangements. | ||
As for pacifism and appeasement policy - USA (and rest of NATO) often work hard on Germany so that it agrees to their ''invitations'' for wars and sanctions against rivals. This is partly a good thing as USA often act themselves strongly ideological just trying to protect their zone of influence. The collateral damage USA cause on their partner - despite protestations to the contrary - is eventually secondary for them: ''America first''. | As for pacifism and appeasement policy - USA (and rest of NATO) often work hard on Germany so that it agrees to their ''invitations'' for wars and sanctions against rivals.
