Talk:Germany

Grammar mistake

"Occupied during the Napoleonic Wars, with the rising of Pan-Germanism inside the German Confederation resulted in the unification of most of the German states" I'd suggest changing it to: "Occupied during the Napoleonic Wars, the rise of Pan-Germanism inside the German Confederation resulted in the unification of most of the German states"

According to the article of the atlantic ocean Germany has a border to it, beacause the atlantic ocean includes the north sea and the east sea. Ich901 (talk) 19:10, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

The present can never make up for the past

Germany murdered 6 million innocent Jews. This is fact. Disputing this fact is criminal. This fact must be in the opening paragraph. If you disagree, then you are a racist criminal nazi barstard. *prepares to be yelled at by some tiny dweeb neo nazi child*124.176.222.19 (talk) 10:52, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Taken in account that you just have vandalized the article of Thilo Sarrazin, calling him a Nazi and baby killer, you should consider not to start any further edits on this wiki. Friendly greetings Ich901 (talk) 16:18, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Saying Germany murdered the 6 million is like saying the Caribbean Sea murdered many people because of the pirates there. True, pirates were once very powerful in the Caribbean Sea, but they don't represent where they live. It is more specific to say that pirates murdered many people than to say the Caribbean Sea murdered many people. Also, it is inherently unstable to label people as criminals just because what they believe is bad, as such labeling may cascade into a loop if you're also prone labeling beliefs as bad when you think all of its believers are criminals. 173.180.202.22 (talk) 05:16, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Hitler Image

I think the image of Adolf Hitler should be removed. It could possibly be viewed as offensive on this article, as this is about Germany, not about Hitler or Nazism. 99.178.171.244 (talk) 01:02, 20 July 2012 (UTC)SilverStar

It has been categorically proven time and time again that when people think of germany, their first thought is the Holocaust and second is hitler. They are both drilled into the world psyche in a huge undeniable way and it will never in 1 thousand years be otherwise. I know you are trying to shield germans from any negative connotations but the past can't be changed, germanys fate is to always be known as the uneducated Anti-Semitic backwater of Europe and the world and it is HIGHLY offensive that you wish to shield modern germans from the history that they are so proud of.124.176.222.19 (talk) 04:45, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Also, there have been dozens of discussions prior to this, do not think you are special as this has already been discussed and shot down with logic and intelligence, not neo-nazi attempts to paint germany as sunshine and lollypops...124.176.222.19 (talk) 04:47, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Even though I doubt people reading this page would like to know how he looks, having so many paragraphs without a picture makes the article look unprofessional. If you see something as offensive, you can choose not to look at it. Changing offensive material will change our standards as we get used to not seeing it, so that everything else will look more offensive until we rinse and repeat with the next bit of "offensive material". 173.180.202.22 (talk) 04:53, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

I disagree with the abhorent statement "If you see something as offensive, you can choose not to look at it". This is exactly how the Holocaust happened, the world saw something offensive but chose to not look at it and do nothing about it, therefore becoming a defacto accessory to the deaths of Six Million Jewish people. That is why I believe we need a bigger hitler section so that the world never forgets.
