Should I forgive Germany?

I am a Gypsy, part of one of the main ethnic groups targeted for extermination on racial grounds by the germans during the second world war -

Am I wrong to still feel anger when a German says this can be justified?

Should you forgive a country who by a large majority have nothing to do with what happened in the 1940's?

It's silly holding a grudge against people not involved.

You are saying being angry at people who think it was right, though? I think everyone would feel anger towards that.

You can't feel anger towards modern day Germany. There are probably more Nazis in the stands of Millwall FC than in Berlin.

Gotta love those East Londoners who hate Germany (for reasons they don't know) and claim that it's because they were "evil", then go on rants about how many "shit" ethnic groups there are here and how great it'd be if they were gone.

Probably but we are trying to stop that 🙁 trying and failing 🙁 reread the thread starter though I give specific context

Your problem lies exactly there. Its not Germany you are talking about, but Nazis.

half right, What if a modern German says it can be justified and is not a Nazi?

Then they're an idiot. There are people of all nationalities who think stuff like that, not just Germans.

agreed what if that same person said it was not an evil act - does it make it worse they are German?

Making the same stupid accusations in a new thread STILL doesn't make you right. Bardock, nor anyone who agreed with his statements, said the Germans were justified.

Yeah ; Lana is right. These people exist all around the world. You cant stigmatise Germany.

Before you add fuel to his silly little fire, read the thread and see if ANYONE said that the Nazis were justified in implementing the holocaust.

No one cares if you do, or don't. Least of all, the entire country of Germany.

and your angry because I made a distinction between race and sexuality I stand by, I also feel no one should be perssecuted for there sexuality. Being Gay is quite natural for people who are Gay and should hold no stigma.

But my sexuality does not define me - my race and culture does, I am English but | am also Romany

Yes you should forgive germany and its ppl that live there today, its like should we forgive the US for having the africans for slaves? yes we should cause most of them are not racist anymore, and most germans are not Nazis anymore, some are yeah but not the country in whole, infact many germans are ashamed over the Nazi times
