Eh American here, German forever repentance is hilariously unnecessary and comical, and it gives a lot of people waaay more skepticism about Germans for a population to first flip to being so destructive to its own citizens and then be the most accommodating ever until its a political crisis. Like be for real. Everybody’s laughing.

I dont know everything but I resonate way more with Austria for this reason, it feels like that same level of re-education is kind of absent there and it feels more genuine.
