Yeah, that famous “we don’t talk about and don’t teach history” in Germany with barely mentioning enough to use it as a cover for imaginary war crimes in all these wars Germany is involved in all over the world…

Herero and Namaqua genocide, the Maji Maji Rebellion as well as other undocumented atrocities in Namibia, Cameroon, Tanzania, Togo, Ghana, Burundi and Rwanda. They were all imaginary, right?

Colonial amnesia at it's finest. Who knows what more will I uncover, once I start bringing Asia? Sook Ching in Singapore, Nanking Massacre and the Boxer Rebellion in China. There's also Roma and LGBTQ+ persecution in Europe.

Talking about Holocaust is the bare minimum. Respectfully, I'm from one of the many ethnic group in India that had to face cultural and language genocide, thanks to German missionaries.
