Ffs it’s on fucking Wikipedia (famously a whitewashed cesspit):

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Heusinger - under “Postwar”: “In April 1961, he was appointed Chairman of the NATO Military Committee[5] in Washington, DC, where he served until 1964 when he retired”.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johannes_Steinhoff - FIRST FUCKING SENTENCE: “Johannes "Macky" Steinhoff (15 September 1913 – 21 February 1994) was a Luftwaffe fighter ace during World War II, German general, and NATO official.”

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Speidel - Again, first paragraph: “(…) a major figure in German rearmament, integration into NATO”.

And my favourite, not in the photo, but the FUCKING FOUNDER OF THE CURRENT INTELLIGENCE AGENCY OF GERMANY: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinhard_Gehlen - THE NAZI ASSASSIN HIMSELF.

You barely did any research and you come saying ALL appears to be false? When EVERYTHING about the picture is true? Get the fuck out of here. You either are an ill-intentioned Nazi or you are ignorant and proud of it.

The US internationalised nazism, not defeat it.

You don’t get rich without exploiting the labour of others*

Honestly, Phantasialand if it was larger would be pretty much perfect.

Yeah I was pretty mad when I wrote that. Being an immigrant to the more central provinces of the Imperial Core makes you realize the dissonance and hypocrisy much more vividly…

Ofc I don’t think it makes sense for anyone to live paralysed by guilt. Maybe some of the wealthier heirs of colonialism, but like 99.99% of people deserve a chance to learn and understand and change. Guilt can be a tool for that. But it also can be a detriment.

A sense of entitlement and moral superiority.

All your wealth and development is the direct result of over exploitation of the global south.

You shouldn’t feel pride in your history. You should feel deep, DEEEEP shame. Every waking second of your lives.

The wealth of your nation is the fruit of colonisation. Your healthcare, public education, safety nets, your entire middle class, are the fruits of the overexploitation of the periphery, through colonialism and neo-colonialism.

The wealth of the colonial countries is entirely due to wealth extracted from the colonies. If they don’t want the responsibility, they should also give away all their wealth.

You can’t have one and not the other.

Either a free consciousness or the stolen wealth.

Yes. …but you had me really confused for a moment there.

Mourning is what we do when people die. I mean not always ofc, but you get what I mean.

Morning is the early part of the day.

  1. Most European countries are EXTREMELY conservative culturally. They are very concerned about preserving “tradition”. Specially in Southern and Easter Europe. Even Germans listen mostly to German music, French to French music etc.
  2. Talk to an avarage Portuguese or Dutch about colonialism… see how much they “regret” or “accept the blame” for the shit they did.
  3. Most countries in Europe are not mono-ethnical, and haven’t been for a long time, like hundreds and hundreds of years. This is also true of Asia in some parts, but mostly Asia has a lot of mono-ethnicity countries. Your example of France, it’s had the Bretons, Basque, Occitan, “French”, Belgians, Flemish and Germans since it’s inception as a country. It was born as a nation by subduing those identities for French maximalism. The same for Italy, Spain, Germany etc etc.
