ok i have a German friend we both go to high school. and he gets picked on alot because he is German especially now that were are studying ww2. do u think were always holding the Germans back with thier mistakes. i know what hitler and the Nazis did was bad. my friend doesn't hate jews Muslims or Christians he doesn't hate anyone by there race religion nationality or skin co-lour. he keeps getting called a nazi and hitler. everyone thinks he hates jews and is racist. but he is not. all this happened along time ago every country has an evil history but why do we frown most at the germans. and why do ppl think all germans supported hitler im pretty sure they were germans out there that opposed hitler. so why do we blame all germans for being a member of nazis we even do it now with middle eastren ppl alot of ppl think they are terriousts who support al quada. one time a person said in the classroom to my friend "ha ha we brits kicked ur a$$es" i was gonna tell him off but then he ran off.

my friend hates studying about ww2 becuse he gets bagged on alot. and the class always calls him a nazi one time i caught him the toilet crying. he said he is fed up of being seen as the demon or the devil the bad guy that everyone hates. im sick with my friend getting all these racist comments. every country has a evil history. i think this needs to stop right now why do we pint at the german mistakes more than anyone elses countrys. i have to say the uk the usa have done just as bad things in thier life time worse than german.

They're not bad people but only Deep Southern American people do, especially in Atlanta, GA where I live where there is more racism than you think. I know of a German friend, a thoughtful, nice guy, who got dumped by a White American girl he dated for a White American guy her parents liked who's very jealous, possessive, nagging, and controlling. This White American guy made nasty threats against him if he ever interacts with this White American girl. Thankfully, he moved to a more vibrant city in which Germans and all sorts of people are accepted.



Anyway, those people are racist to your friend. Did you report this to any adult in your school, your teacher, maybe?

No, i does not be indignant. It relies upon, of path, on the context, and no rely if the guy who mentioned it became attempting to be offensive or not. yet they probable did not advise it as an insult. i don't think of it fairly concerns, do you? it might desire to be they have been attempting to purely describe your ethnicity by way of your useful properties. it is often a unfavorable element to attempt to do, because of the fact there is not any one thank you to seem, no rely what us of a your ancestors got here from. (basically think of of what you may say to describe to a foreigner what a typical "American" sounds like.) of path, in case you had mentioned that somebody looked "German" in 1918 or 1943, that could desire to have been an excellent insult, considering that we've been at conflict with that us of a. yet as we talk, it might desire to purely reflect what stereotypes the guy conversing has of Germanic "kinds", or Northern eu kinds. conversing for myself basically, I even have been to France, Germany and Italy, besides as different countries in Europe. there is not any one way that folk from those countries appear as if. and that all of them have some alluring women folk. basically think of of each and every of the knock-out action picture actresses from Europe you may call. So, no, do not take it as a unfavourable.

We? Speak for yourself. I have never considered Germans bad people. If anything, just the opposite. I think Hitler had the right idea, he just went about it the wrong way.

Where I live, "we" do not.

"We" don't. Maybe YOU (and your "friend") do, though. Speak for yourself.
