Self-racism?

RE: Self-racism?

I don't see why waving the national flag or singing your national anthem, or even wearing a shirt that says 'I love Germany' would be offensive to anyone. Maybe I'm just clueless, I am American afterall. Some things I just don't get.

It's not necessarily offensive, it's just "suspicious", like Alex said. You know, we had people singing anthems and waving flags here not so long ago and bad things happened is a euphemism, so now other flag-waving anthem-singing people turn up on the radar.

It is hard to understand from an outsider's point of view. It may seem like 70 years ago is a long time, but it's really not. Like we've said, our grandparents remember it very vividly.

Can you explain the difference you mean between being proud to be German and being proud of Germany?
