    Germany was nowhere near as successful at denazification as they would have everyone believe, iirc there were even german conservative politicians post WW2 who’ve argued danzification went too far or was unnecessary. Now I’m not saying Germany is still a Nazi state, they aren’t. But they still have a way bigger issue with it then many would assume.

      danzification went too far

      Now I’m thinking of an alternate Germany where Danzig took over after WW2.

        Goddamn, I knew I should have opened the phone for that one (I have a fold, I typed that on the skinny front screen). I swear I retyped that word like 4 times lol.

        I think my next eu4 campaign might be Tuetons -> Danzig -> Prussia -> Germany now thanks to you.

      The label “nazi” just makes it easier to point fingers at them. It’s much more true that assholes, racists and fascists are simply everywhere. In every country and every society. We as a society need to do our job and fight for our rights, fight against the uprise of organized egoism.

      There are recent examples, where we failed. f.e. russia, afghanistan the list goes on…
