I am a german, I know what that means, but baerbock isn’t doing a genocide. What annoys me is, oh look, a German says something, he is Hitler. Btw, where are you from?

Yes, she is literally a part of a government that is currently actively involved in a genocide conducted in Gaza. Germans are supplying the weapons used by Israel and Germany is directly complicit. I’m from Canada, and Canada is also complicit. I have no problem criticizing the actions of my government and their fascist policies.

Enthusiastic support for a genocide is not much better and arguably the same

Being German seems to make people less able to see the similarities. Almost as if your public education system has whitewashed the history, material realities, and tenor of Nazis and the Holocaust using the most effective means to do so: by having a strict and thorough public education system that discusses the overall topic to a large degree but leaves out any ability for Germans to recognize current yet rhyming causes, undercurrents, rhetoric and actions of genocidal racial supremacists. Germans can recognize a Swastika and (sometimes) punch someone for waving it around (some others still might salute it) but not the Lebensraum rhetoric from Israel, the ghettoization of Palestine, the genocide of Palestiniand, nor their own country’s role in promoting all of these things for what it is. One thing that should not be hard to recognize is the flipping of aggressor into victim, of attack into a defense. That was Nazi rhetoric 101. Would you have symlathized with the “oppression” of “Aryans” by Jewish people? The “Judeo-Bolsheviks”!? Sounds like the answer could be yes.

Please do some reflection on what ethnic supremacy, genocide, and settler colonialism are - i.e. very Nazi things - and whether you oppose them.

I never denied that Israel is committing war crimes. I only said that Baerbock is not committing genocide, which is the core message of this Baerbock-Hitler picture.
