I'm amazed at all the outrage expressed by so many in the comments section. And yet, the same thing, in a way, is still happening today (but without all the outrage). During the 60-80's, in Scandinavia, the practice of sterilizing undesirable people (usually mentally deficient) was a government program. Iceland recently claimed to have "cured" Down's Syndrome. How? By aborting babies with that condition (and pressuring the mothers to do so, many saying later, it was against their will). Abortion is already rampant everywhere and used to eliminate the undesirable (usually as determined by the mother). Btw, Planned Parenthood, was initially set up to abort the undesirable, including undesirable races. Black babies are aborted in the hundreds of thousands (and specifically targeted by Planned Parenthood). People are getting artificially inseminated with the sperm of men with a preferred phenotype (with blond hair and blue eyes, fair skin, and height, being at the top of the preferred list). My family is basically Norwegian/German and even something as innocuous as my blond wife (when she was single) and blond adult children, are often aggressively pursued, just for their phenotype (and have been told so by those pursuing them). My Italian/Greek brother in law said he pursued my very blond sister, just for her hair.
Btw, my very Nordic (and stunningly beautiful) mom was born in 1942 and when she took a dna test, along with her brother, her's came out to be about half Norwegian half Germanic Europe, whereas her brother's (same test, same time) came out entirely different (and looks nothing or very little like her siblings). The idea of her being a secretly adopted Lebensborn child popped into my head for about 2 seconds (her uncle actually help liberate an area which had a Lebensborn home), until I reminded myself she looks just like her Norwegian grandmother.

The main reason why Germans have been so demonized since the war, is political. It actually started during world war 1. Long story, short, when Germany united under Bismarck, some other countries were worried about it becoming to powerful. America was brought into the war against Germany for that reason. However, America and Germany were not natural enemies (a lot of Americans were of German heritage and many Americans wanted to support Germany during the war) so propaganda was created to demonize not just Germany, but Germans as well. This same propaganda continued into world war 2 but also for one more reason. As you know, the far left socialists and far right socialists battled for supremacy in Germany before the war. The far right (Nazis) won. But, as a a result of their loss in the war, the far left socialists took over and in order to win the population over to their side, demonized not just the Nazis, but any sense of national or ethnic pride of the German people, but associating those things only with Nazism. By, breaking down Germans sense of national and ethnic identity and pride (even being embarrassed to be German), they were ripe for being manipulated into accepting an EU. And, by extension, the same thing has happened in the US. In the media (movies, etc.) Germans are always the villains, and are associated with Nazim and nation and ethnic white pride. By demonizing them, they're really demonizing "The West" (traditional, white, Christian, family orientated, conservative people), even though they bear almost no resemblance. Any way, most anti German sentiment and propaganda, is political and can be traced back to these things.

I get it. Many Germans, even generations after the war, were made to continue to feel guilt for it to the point where you were even ashamed to be German (prefered to be "European" instead). Though every nation should learn from it's past, personal or collective guilt is not necessary and can actually be harmful. In my opinion, I believe a lot of the motivation for this multi-generational guilt is political. After the war, by associating the Nazis with everyone on the political right (including those who have nothing in common with the Nazis), those on the political left are able to forever demonize all their political opponents. During the war, the Japanese were probably far more barbaric than the Nazis and of course, the Soviets were equally as (and certainly, the Chinese and Cambodians during their communist take overs) and yet no one of these races or nationalities are made to feel guilt for the behavioir of others of their same race or nationality (and they shouldn't). It's pretty much only Germans.
Except, it's starting to happen in America now too (again, for political reasons). Though no where to the same level, all white people are now being made to feel guilt over slavery despite the fact that most Americans don't even have ancestors who were involved in it. In fact, there are far more Americans who have ancestors who fought against slavery, than supported it, and yet we're all made to feel guilt. Nope.

@micaelamorrigan2544 If you're ashamed of your German ancestry then you're no better than the Nazis you're condemning. The Nazis used the same racist rationale to justify the killing of Jews and others. Just because your racism is direct towards a different race, it's still racism. How on earth would someone of German ancestry be guilty of the actions of someone else of German ancestry? Also, just because one is Jewish, doesn't automatically make one immune to racism or even atrocities. Some of the most murderous people of Stalin's communist regime were Jews, who actually, during the Great Purge, targeted and killed thousands of Germans (and other foreigners living in Russia), just because they were German. And, just because those communist Jews committed atrocities and those Nazi Germans committed atrocities, doesn't make all Germans or all Jews, guilty. See how racism works now?
