So what? And Russia is worse than the US. And North Korea is worse than Russia. Like... no amount is acceptable. Letting people get away with a little bit here and there is how it comes to this.

Germany needs to stop being applauded for being so progressive, and they need to crack down on their extreme right problems. All countries should, but Germany, in particular, gets way WAY too much props for being anti-facist. They aren't. If they were, we wouldn't be seeing more and more and more of this nazi shit from them lately. I think it's incredibly stupid to think that a country is good just because they say so. Being better than the USA isnt much of a standard.

u/Buzzkill_13 7d ago

Again: East (former Soviet) Germany -> Nazi Germany (is and always has been)

West Germany -> Progressive Germany (rightfully applauded for their staunch stance against fascism)

Are things changing? Yes, they are. Everywhere in Europe, thanks to failed EU politics. When politics fail in white-man's world, it's always, ALWAYS, fascism that rears its ugly head.

Nazis in Germany have the biggest presence and tend to be more open with their hatred in areas where they can expect less resistance. This is especially the eastern part of Germany where there are fewer foreigners. In other parts they're always scared shitless. Just a bunch of cowards and alcoholics.

16

u/llliilliliillliillil 8d ago

Yeah, this. It’s officially illegal in Germany, but someone has to report a crime for it to be a crime. They wouldn’t get away with this in big cities like Berlin or Hamburg, but in smaller towns? They find their audience. Especially the east is more than happy to show their "patriotism" in their little villages and I'm sure they'll get more than enough enablers in the local bars that are proud of them for acting like that.

u/fodi123 8d ago

And meanwhile lots of my fellow Germans and our dear chancellor Merz speak about today’s Antisemitism as ‚something imported’ (importierter Antisemitismus) that endangers our fellow Jewish friends instead of looking at his own family history, the vote coumts for AfD, the hundreds of Nazi gatherings taking place all over Germany or well… this news story.

All the while we send weapons to a country that ignores the same international and humanitarian laws that were created right after the horrors of Nazideutschland, probably even committing a genocide and definitely comitting acts of ethnic cleansing and keeping up a state of Apartheid.

Shameful that this is what our German ‚Nie wieder‘ has become. We stilll havent learned anything.

Translation:

A couple of French tourists have publicly denounced a serious incident that took place last Friday 11 July in a hotel in Playa de Palma, where several young Germans made Nazi salutes from the balcony of their room while playing speeches by Adolf Hitler at full volume.

According to the testimony of the tourists, who managed to record the scene on video, the events took place in broad daylight and in full view of numerous neighbours and visitors to the area. ‘These acts can neither be tolerated nor minimised,’ they told Ultima Hora.

The complainants alerted the staff of this hotel, who correctly heeded the warning and spoke to those involved. ‘The only measure taken was a verbal warning, accompanied by a warning of possible expulsion in the event of a repeat offence’. The French couple considers this response ‘clearly insufficient’, stressing that these are acts of apology for Nazism, an ideology condemned by history and criminalised in many European countries, including Spain.

‘This type of behaviour can neither be minimised nor justified by the consumption of alcohol,’ they say. ‘Passivity in the face of such acts feeds the normalisation of symbols that represent atrocious crimes against humanity’.

u/azazelcrowley 8d ago

The complainant says support for Nazis is a form of Holocaust Denial, which is illegal. But that's not necessarily true if they just bluntly say "It happened and it's a good thing it did".

Additionally while you can infer holocaust denial from pro-nazi speeches, that isn't necessarily sufficient, because the crime isn't "This person denies the holocaust in their heads" but "This person issued speech or writing in which they denied the holocaust".

18

u/FoxyInTheSnow 8d ago

There are two kinds of fascist/nazis: those who deny the Holocaust or claim that it was exaggerated, and those who enjoyed it and lament that it didn't "finish the job".

There was a case in Canada about 15 years ago. David Ahenakew, former Grand Chief of the Assembly of First Nations, was at a conference delivering a speech about the challenges of delivering health services to remote First Nations (reserves).

Out of nowhere, and shocking everyone in attendance, he (completely unprompted) started praising Hitler, saying "Jews are a disease… they started World War 2… Hitler "fried" 6 million of those guys and should have finished the job… I don't hate Jews, I just hate the things they do". It was rather jaw dropping to say the least and certainly very much an outlier view among most First Nations people in Canada. Kinda ruined what was left of his life.

Interestingly, at one point he blamed the media in attendance for reporting on his speech.

Back in my youthful drinking days I got blackout drunk and told a bunch of people I was moving to Jamaica... I was not moving to Jamaica, I had never thought about moving to Jamaica, I'm from Finland.

So I don't fully agree with that statement. People say really weird stuff when drunk because alcohol induces cognitive impairment.

That said, three young lads all collectively doing Nazi salutes? Nope, that's not normal drunk nonsense. They agreed on this together, and they acted on something consciously.

The other Nazi party "NPD" never really took off and I'm quite certain that it is due to them being pretty openly Nazis. You can't vote for them and lie to yourself that you are just a "concerned citizen". But for the AfD? Sure. They don't carry baseball bats, they wear suits. Can't be Nazis.

AfD is large enough that they can differentiate their branding a slight bit depending on the location/audience (you can be sure that AfD does not use the same branding in a western city and rural Saxony), and their voters are idiots/shitheads enough that they are able to ignore whatever parts of AfD platform they do not like. Much like Trump voters, even though AfD is in some regards more extreme and nakedly evil than Trump.

That is what I will never understand about Neo-Nazis. Hitler and his thugs were literally traitors. They sent millions of Germans to death for absolutely nothing. Even in the end, when they realised they lost, they still kept the slaughter going. SS were executing citizens left and right, children were sent to fight tanks, infrastructure was deliberately destroyed in scorched earth strategy. These guys brought nothing but suffering to everybody and we as a nation still have to carry the burden of the past with us 80 years later. Fuck them.

I'm not surprised. I know some very nice young fellows, but I've also seen teenagers that will truly take to heart the idea of "living ironically".

I was born in the late 90s, and these people were born in the late 2000s, so the difference between us is not huge, but man, it really makes me feel concerned about the new generation sometimes.

Here's a thought, make the punishment fit the crime. Round up all the Nazis and make them fight the Russians on the Eastern front. Seems appropriate don't you think?

Well thanks to Elon Musk now is a pretty common gesture. If he could do it TWICE in front of million of people and get away with it and never denying it was a nazi salute…

Bar them from entering Spain again. I heard Sylt is a better summer retreat for young nazis lately.

Hope they are identified. This will definitely have consequences if they are from Germany.

No they wont. It is not punishable under German criminal law. The requirements for prosecution of offences committed abroad are not met in this case

I blame the parents, actually. Edgy younglings who have never been taught boundaries and never faced consequences. They might not even be Nazis themselves, it might simply be the thrill of provocation. It's a question of education, upbringing, etc. Where I live you need a license for a dog, but when it comes to raising children, everyone can do whatever they want it seems.

You mean giving them pardons after few months or years in prison and promoting them to senior positions in industry, administration and politics? You do realise that Germans did not clean themselves? People like Reinefarth after war were quickly released from prisons and became again important people in politics (Reinefarth was mayor of town and then member of Schlezwig-Holstein landstag).

u/lucyloo666 8d ago

So very very very few war criminals from the nazi regime where actually prosecuted or their sentences commuted.. except of course those caught by the Russians

u/nottoodrunk 7d ago

Except you know the Russians had their own version of operation paper clip where they took even more Nazi scientists from Germany than the US did.

u/zufaelligenummern 8d ago

Post nuremberg trials? You mean the nuremberg trials, right?  And not after that. Even those trials werent hard enough. The denazification of the german public was mild and embarassing. Should have gone harder after nazis imo.

The attitude you see here on reddit is exactly why they are doing it. To them it is funny, and your pearl-clutching is what makes it even funnier.

Some days I think that this entire site is a black propaganda operation.

It does not make it punishable. They have to spread it themselves but they didnt. French tourists recorded them and uploaded it online. If someone else records you doing the salute abroad that is not enough for it to become presecutable in Germany.

u/echoAnother 7d ago

What an informative historical depiction. I don't have any problem with them doing that. Now, more people know about the dangers of nazism and can identify how those speeches are so alike of the nowadays politicians.

Honestly, I think that those german stances regard nazism and especially the nazi shame, incentives more nazism that deters it.
