  1. I am a 50 yo American and remember being taught that JFK misspoke there! This was entirely eye opening to me. Now, to the last 4 yrs of separation between Germany & the US. I need to offer you a differing perspective on the Trump administration then what Leftists will claim. The Progressive establishment, which Frau Merkel is a part, came together to oppose Donald Trumps populist movement. That was really the only significant break in relations that im familiar with. The ginned up animosity towards him by marxist-leaning Progressives, especially in the media! Just how quickly and uniformly the world media could agree to oppose, denounce a leader should be frighteningly instructive! our national medias are more propaganda then we realize!

  2.  @KristenRowenPliske  At the founding of the US, and for maybe 50 years after, there were so many German speaking people, German could have been an official language! Germans settled in huge numbers, especially in the frontier areas that our country was expanding in. We owe quite a debt to those German settlers for helping us people those areas and expand. Behind the English, Scots irish, the Germans are the most numerous ancestors, and why there was so much fear of the influence they might have during the world wars. The city i live in now had a vibrant german community that was very much out in the open. They had to go quiet, to almost hide themselves during the World wars, to ensure they werent seen as traitors. Unfortunately, their mistreatment has largely gone unnoticed, and i think that is because they were European white, instead of people of color. But the german-Americans experienced back lash to varying degrees.

  3.  @gulliverthegullible6667  You are completely wrong, and couldnt be more so! We ARE expected to feel personally guilty! Thats the ENTIRE point of this campaign to discuss it, ad nauseum. there are too many differences between what Germany experienced and what the US, Canada, and UK experienced, to name just 3! Its comparing apples and oranges here. The reason why its brought up about numbers is: because EVERYONE wants to poke at Germany for her crimes, but stay strangely silent about the OTHER countries crimes? Why are we NOT complaining daily to Russia to apologize for her crimes? Because the Left admires Russia?soviet Union and tries to hide or negate them! The WHOLE topic in North america is entirely politically motivated and NOT motivated on the lofty Idealism that the Left purports! its TOXIC!

  5. I originate from your part of Pennsylvania( South central PA) and I am descended from Gingrichs. I was told our people came from an area know as the Palatinate in Germany( although it wasnt a unified Germany in those days. Pennsylvania german is definitely a low German variant, as i struggled mightily trying to use a German dictionary to read documents. Many grave yards have head stones entirely in German, especially in Lebanon county where i did the most of my searching.

  12.  @WRGuy0  He said there are idiots everywhere! Thanks for answering the call, bro, we appreciate you! LOL He said occasionally he was made fun of for his Metropolitan French accent in Quebec. He loved living in Montreal. He also recounted a story where his grand father, who was born in Algeria (when it was still a French department, state) visited Louisianna and spoke intelligible French with a local. He found that a surreal moment. i took a few liberties in my brief translation here, but it is the gist, to keep it brief.

  13.  @bongdonkey  If this interests you at all, i highly recommend a book called 'The Story of French' by Jean'Benoit Nadeau. It is a big book, but a surprisingly quick read and it recounts how the northern french dialect became the Linguafranca of France and it also delves into the many French dialects across the world, and especially into the Canadien French dialect! The author is French canadien and he recounts some funny stories of how this variant is looked down upon by some in Europe. But as an anglophone first, this was NOT only a problem of French canadiens. English in the colonies was looked down upon by our European cousins as well. A well known publisher in the 19th century had remarked on this phenomenon.

  14. Germany was the ONLY country who was forced to by outside forces to come to terms with it, or risk censure by the international community. because there was NO foreign intervention into the US or Canada, neither country was forced externally to give a reckoning on the order of Germany. Japan committed atrocities near on par with Germany during the war and even to this very day, gives the most tepid apologies to China and other affected Asian countries. they also complain that they dont think Japan has sincerely apologized for what its done! I believe Shinzo Abe has probably done the most to attempt to heal wounds. Germany is UNIQUE in the entire world for the public reckoning it has had to give, and comparing ANY other nation on the planet to it is foolhardy, to put it mildly. I can only imagine most of you are Leftists, with the way you seem biased against the US without a fuller understanding of why it is this way. Only a Leftist could be SO blinded by idealism that he/she/zhe could be so foolish! By the way, Russia/The USSR ALSO did some pretty atrocious things during the war and after it! How dont hear the groundswell of complaints from Leftists for them to give such a firm public reckoning that Germany has been expected to do, and that the US is constantly shamed into doing. How strange this is? Any Leftist willing to address this?

  15. I doubt Die Fuhrer's influence is the reason for this at all. Unless you have some quotes of influential German politicians. The Germans seem to have done what most western countries do, and get friendly with one world despot that we all would agree is a bad person, normally because of business or something.(something that the popular media wont report b/c they want the common people to hold certain opinions)

  18. Yes, and we have always been told that that particular phrase meant he was a jelly donut, as her video said. We have been taught that, we are typical Americans for being so insolated and so unaware of the wider world, and that was hilarious proof from our President! Canadians still LOVE to chide us for this and to laugh at how they know more about the US then we know about Canada. What they fail to realize and I need to inform them on is just how well they have been colonized that they learn more about the colonizing country, then we know about our colony! They usually dont appreciate my take on this! LMAO hey, the truth hurts!

  19. Having lived in Pennsylvania, i am not at all surprised. in fact I would not be shocked if German was the 2nd most spoken language in the US at its founding (as a country, not the colonial periods). I am QUITE a fan of the French language and I will try to hold back my outrage at your comment! LOL/ MDR
    2
  20. I didnt know those interesting facts! From my learning of history, I believed that from the start of the German Union, that Germans grasping for empire was a thorn in the side of the established powers. Thats why they wrangled so much over the German Unification question. With all that industrial might & all those brilliant minds in one place, they knew they had a force of nature to contend with. But I see how going after a Rothschild could make one Persona Non Grata very quickly! thank you for the lesson!

  30. We often only point out things that bother us and not things we like, BECAUSE they bother us. Pretty typical stuff she is doing there! You are not wrong, and many American and other have outgrown our Hit.ler phase, but unfortunately there are still some people, even in the media, that havent outgrown theirs. And so we ALL have to be burdened by it.

  31. Everyone hears things differently. If one isnt exposed to many variants/examples, then people know what they experienced. Not every one in the US has that new York accent or Boston accent or the southern drawls. but if some like one over the other, that is their taste. I understand you want expose them to the full palate of variations, but also be patient with them too.

  39. Marxism has seeped into every western nation and their hallmark is to rebel against authority and its institutions. Largely this is what they instigate amongst the youth to do. Youth are naturally given to want to part ways ideologically with their elders; its part of the maturing process of kids to divergent views from their elders. Every generation seems to experience this. I doubt the youth of that time were less concerned about true Nazi ideology, but were merely expressing their independence, and taking the polar opposite view of their parents was an avenue to do this. Ask those people as adults, if they still hold those views of their youth and most people wouldnt. We outgrow the foolishness of our youth (well, most of us)!

  42. I'm 50 yrs old, and when I was in school most of us were expected to study a foreign language. I am not sure when this stopped of if my area of the country was special. In my area, we had a large population of German ancestry, so German was offered in High school. it wasnt difficult to find cemeteries with the stones written in German.

  43.  @ZechsMerquise73  LMAO! Nothing you said resembles the truth in any way! But nice story, bro! I'm pretty certain by the 80's that conservatives would have seen the shift in the democrat party and realized conservatives had more in common with JFK than Carter or Mondale did! Why a conservative would impugn a long dead president who harmonized on conservative views (aside from the serial philandering). The Times was hyper-Capitalist? Thats news to me.
    1
  44. I'm very sorry for this. This is extremely embarrassing that our opinion of Germany has been SO influenced by our propaganda machine here in the US. Unfortunately i was guilty of a similar, but less egregious (in my opinion) example of assuming the highlight of Germany was THAT moment in time. And of course, the Germans i met were VERY patient and tactful in the face of my faux pas! Those of us of German ancestry realize there is much more to this. be patient while we help our fellow Americans over come their brain washing.

  45. To be fair though, New york accents sound harsh to many Americans and many of us have LOVED to make fun of it! I got teased a lot for my slight Boston accent, until i lost it. We had a teacher in school with the New york accent and she got mimicked ENDLESSLY, the poor woman! LOL its just something people love to do!

  58. This is very sad to hear. I agree, that i never found German to be a love language but NOT because of WW2 era Germany. Perhaps try to find OTHER examples of Germans in history to offset a dark moment in time? Just as the US is MORE than slavery or Indian killing, and the British are more than world domination & killing everyone, the Germans are more than WW2 & tormentors of the French! LOL i think you will find yourself pleasantly surprised & have your perspective widened! GOD bless!

I moved to the area 3 years after that happened and lived there awhile. President Carter went in there, and he is STILL around after ALL these years.

  79. Not to get into a FULL blown political debate, sir, but this is a huge over-simplification. The Germans & Russians have seemd to grow a certain 'affection' for each other over recent years, so to take sides in this, for Germany would incur the wrath of their now 'close' friends the Russians You are welcome to approve or Disapprove this, as its HOTLT debated by many, but i doubt the Germans take SUCH a dim view of Ukrainians as it seems you suggest. Its far more that the Germans are 'close' with the Russians now, and ALL the uncomfortable-ness that comes with that.

  80.  @thomaskalbfus2005  Hitler and his experiment was ALSO well regarded in the US! Before we realized he had expansionist intentions, leaders of industry in the US were eager to help. In my area of the country, what has been written has been generally favorable of Hitler and his public vision for Germany. infact, even the local French language paper had blurbs that were positive towards him ( this I found most surprising, knowing the antagonism between France and Germany since Germany's founding!

  84. We are often told that american versions of traditional cuisines are NOT authentic! So anytime i try anything foreign I always wonder if its authentic as well!

There were some VERY warm feeling back & forth between America & Germany before the press got ahold of some of that regimes darker secrets. Much praise was made for Hitler in America, but this is NEVER mentioned any more? Why do we leave these parts out? What are we hiding?

I wish we could send a Trump to Canada, Mexico, UK, and Germany! Y'all suffered enough!

  117.  @timhazeltine3256  Since when does ANYONE here care about facts? I havent seen one person mention a fact, until you complained! Everyone has an opinion! We voted for the guy because we didnt think he could be WORSE than the last bozo! Why does all the Eurotrash NEED to opine on American elections? Stay there in EuroDisneyland, if you prefer, just quit WHINING!

  121. Are you from Pburgh? I met many people of German ancestry from western Pa, so they seemed like they had a strong contingent out there. I lived in eastern PA for 15 years, and we DEFINITELY had a strong contingent. it wasnt hard to find cemeteries with the stones written all in German.

  122. Its NOT the funding, though! We spend MORE per child to educate them, than any other country (besides Japan). The Progressive education system has intended to make us dumber and more compliant since the Gilded age! I live in one of the most Leftist states in the country and kids are just as dumb as they are ANY where in the country! We are on the Road to Serfdom again!

  123. Where is their French from? I think Paris gets associated with that a good bit, but i have heard French from other parts of France and it has a more powerful sound to it. Like all languages it depends on who & how its spoken.

  124. She is a lady, and ladies will ALWAYS play up positive associations with themselves. Please keep this in mind as you try to deride her intentions. but the rest of your comment i wholeheartedly agree with. At least in the US, we can thank the Left for these ever present reminders. Most of the big names in Hollywood were decidedly Leftist, so i am in no ways making a stretch, even if there are Leftists who have matured beyond this pathology. my respect to them!

  125.  @arnodobler1096  Europeans have been hating on Americans since your ancestors first moved here (100's of years ago)! Apparently your ancestors were very happy to leave! Now we see why!

  126. You are correct, by try comparing it to the Canadian System where hopefully more Americans are familiar AND there are fewer diverse parties to keep track of. That is if you have the familiarity with the Canadian system.

  128. Read newspaper clippings from before 1942 and you will see a LOT of positive press on how he was helping bring Germany out of its doldrums. In my community we had a small French language paper, and even in there they had often GLOWING things to say about Germany & Hit.ler himself. it wasnt until we joined the war that the hyper-negativity started it seems for most of the country.

  129. Prior to WW2 it was the language of science, as most of the important scientific findings were made in Germany & written in German.

  130. Thats quite odd! if any people on earth should have bad associations with the Germans ( i wont use the B word I wanted to use!) its the French! not that the French were absolute angels, mind you, but in recent times The German Question/Problem has been prominent in European history! I am of french ancestry ,so have been learning French for years now, mostly the Canadian variety.

  132. Because most Canadians INSIST they are nothing like us! My ex wife was afraid to move to the US when we first got married because she thought we all carried guns and she would get shot! i am happy to say, after 20 yrs in the US, she hasnt been shot once!

  133. Thats such a shame too! Normally, we respect our elders, but this is one time when we can ignore them!

  134. There was a good reason why many Germans immigrated to the west to escape the constant turmoil in Europe.

  135. I totally agree that the collective guilt imposed on Germany is totally over done! Imagine if we imposed such a guilt on the UK, France or Belgium for all the horrible things they have wrought throughout history! certainly the European colonization of Africa is FAR worse than what we had done to the slaves here in the US, since its intent was equally as racist, and did far more damage to Africa, than simply owning slaves. i think we can tell that the English & the French have won history by their ability to escape the intense shaming that other countries experienced for lesser crimes than what both those countries committed, and for longer periods of time! As far as our fascination with war, I figured this was a more recent phenomenon amongst the working class & middle class people. The US was reluctant to join up in 'the party' (WW1 was actually much looked forward to in Europe, before it started), because the masses wanted to avoid it! The American populace had to be coaxed into it with both propaganda, and a casus belli to draw us into it. I realize this was an embarrassment amongst the political class in the US, so they had to change our culture to have the American public more fascinated with war. We were told: if we dont fight Hitler over there, he will arrive on our door step!

  137.  @rebekahj8662  LMAO Protections from what? No one will bother you here in the US if you dont push the TRANS nonsense on our kids! Stop grabbing for more ENTITLEMENTS and expecting people who disagree with you to use your pronouns and what not, and MOST decent people will leave you alone! Its the pushing it on the kids. Its what happened at the Paris Olympics. Its the EXTREMISM that will receive backlash. Live your life like a normal person that has to pay double for food this year compared to last year for a climate crises that NO ONE can fix by stalling our own economy, and MOST DECENT people will leave you alone. No need to run away.

  138. You must be old enough to remember the mini-series 'The Winds of War' by Herrman Wouck? Was such a big deal in the early 1980's. i remember WW2 being a frequent discussion topic in the 1980's, and I remember in history class in school an entire month was devoted to its discussion! And I lived in a part of the US that hada substantial German heritage! i remember saturday nights going out to the local park and hearing live polka groups play! LOL

  139. Its meant to be funny mate! Take a laxative, and chill! Its our attempt to try to relate, however clunky it comes across! Would you rather we laugh at your soccer hooligans? 2022 world Cup was the first time Brits werent kicked out! congrats on the Big win, mate!

  140. Its the propaganda! And it seems like EVERY country has a stereotype about them that the world has been taught. Most of the stereotype about world countries, at least for Americans, STILL revolve around what happened in WW2. Our views of the french as being hairy and deathly afraid of bathing. Our view of Brits and their horrible dental hygiene. Many Europeans think Americans are gun-toting cowboys who weigh as much as a a volkswagon bug. LOL We all do it, to greater or lesser extent, but like you said. its very unfair our associations considering what a very small time line that man is involved in. I WISH we had this opinion of Stalin, but for some ODD reason Stalin doesnt have the same negative associations. i wonder why this is? LOL

  141. A lot of the German populations were VERY supportive of Hit.ler and the rise of Germany again (before all the Dark secrets came out). So they kind of got scape -goated when those secrets came out, unfortunately. My city had a very thriving German sector ( a city most people wouldnt associate with German!) Many Germans changed their names to something english, and a lot of business either went under or had to re formulate themselves. propaganda is very effective, unfortunately. many think of Propaganda from recent years, but they've been using it for 100 years now, at least.

  142.  @jamesjacocks6221  LOL Perhaps we have the benefit of hindsight to see just how much propaganda we've been fed! Were you alive during that time? were you a democrat? is it possible you may hold a rosy view of a bygone era that may in fact not be true?
