808b5e Sweden was also neutral during both World Wars, although its neighbours Denmark and Norway were promptly invaded in 1940 and Finland aligned itself with the Axis, fighting the Soviet Union during the Winter War in 1940-41 and Operation Barbarossa from 1940-44, before finally joining the Comintern against Nazi Germany.

808b5e And need I mention the many Jewish Germans and Austrians who were persecuted during the Hitler era (including Hitler's distant second-cousin, Aloisia Veit who was gassed because she was mentally handicapped), the numerous resistance groups such as the Weiß Rose or Swingjugend or SoPaDe or the Kommunistishe Partei Deutschlands/Österreichs? Hitler himself wasn't even German by birth and only considered himself as such because the region of Austria he was from was part of the Rhine Confederation?

4fbda4 what did sweden do in the world wars?-Evan

4fbda4 so they were kinda safe and kinda just watched...ok-Evan

808b5e Switzerland hasn't took part in any foreign war since 1815, although they were under threat of invasion during both World Wars.

808b5e Some "people" (read:Ignorant_uneducated_buffoons) assume any person who is German or of German descent is a Nazi, which is incredibly racist in itself and just, plain and simply, factually incorrect. Although Right-Wing populist groups and political parties such as the AfD have been on the rise in European countries, the same thing is true for literally every other country except maybe China. Karl Marx, who is credited with theorising Communism (the ideological opposite of Nazism) as we know it today, was, himself, German. Many Austrians and Germans who fled Nazi Germany, including Hitler's own nephew (William Stuart-Houston) fought against the Axis during World War II. Albert Einstein, a Jewish-German fled Germany in 1933 and later took part in the Manhattan Project and creation of the atomic bomb that ended the war.

4fbda4 hermann i don't understand this...can you explain...?-Evan

808b5e Brits also adopted pejorative and derogative slurs, such as Fritz (short for the name 'Friedrich') and Jerry. Since the Second World War, people have referred to people and things as 'Krauts' (yes that's a slur, and it's likely short for Sauerkraut).

808b5e I'm dumbfounded. Yes. | Former U.S. President and cousin to FDR, Teddy Roosevelt denounced "hyphenated Americanism..." whatever that is. American and Canadian propaganda posters often would contain the word 'hun', a slur for Germans in reference to Wilhelm II's Hunnenrede (English: Hun Speech). 'Hun' initially referred to nomadic people who lived in Central Asia, the Caucasus, and Eastern Europe because obviously that's the same (side note: it also is self-derogative considering the English who went on to colonise the Americas, outside of the Scottish, Welsh, and Irish, were descendents of Germans; that's where the term 'Anglo-Saxon' comes from).

4fbda4 i'm finished making this black and white...-Evan

4fbda4 wait...there was people being racist to germans -Evan

808b5e Executive Order 9066*. We were on the topic of anti-German racism during the World Wars.

4fbda4 um..what-Evan

808b5e The American Justice Department imprisoned 4,000 German-Americans who, simply due to heritage, were suspected of spying on the Triple Entente or endorsing the "German cause" during the First World War. The same occurred during the following war, in which President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 066, authorising law enforcement to deport first-generation Japanese, Italian, and German-American migrants to internment camps; many of whom had fled to the United States and other countries to avoid Nazi persecution in the first place. The British Empire did the same thing, with the Hay Internment Camp and P.O.W. Camps being established in Austraia to intern 1st-generation German migrants, many of which were Jews.

4fbda4 ahem...hermann what are you talking about?i'm a little confused...-Evan

808b5e Hospitals and businesses also changed their names. German Hospital in Chicago was renamed to Grant Hospital and German Dispensary in New York City became Lenox Hill Hospital. Some schools completely stopped teaching German, and the ones that continued limited the number of credits that students could receive for the class to discourage students from learning German. American libraries would ban books published in German or by German authors and even organised public book burnings, which is notably reminiscent of the Nazi book burnings during the Holocaust that most Americans condemn Hitler for doing today.

3183dc They should make a Madness Combat SCP. It'd be cool. *insert image of guy with no brain smiling* [lss]

808b5e This was not exclusive to the United States. In the Russian Empire, they renamed St. Petersburg to Petrograd in 1914 before changing it to Leningrad following Vladimir Lenin's death in 1924. In the U.S., they renamed streets as well. German and Berlin Street in Cincinnati were renamed to English and Woodward Street. In Chicago, Lubeck Street, Frankfort Street, and Hamburg Street were renamed to Dickens Street, Charleston Street, and Shakespeare Street. New Orleans changed Berlin Street to Pershing Street in honour of General John J. Pershing and in Indianapolis, Bismarck Avenue and Germania Street were renamed to Pershing Avenue and Belleview Street. In Brooklyn, Hamburg Avenue was renamed to Wilson Avenue in honour of President Woodrow Wilson.

7ce906 Hitler Cabbage:Adios Tim for real -Demented

808b5e Following American entry into World War I, anti-German sentiment exploded. People attempted to "Americanise" things, often through renaming. A famous (or infamous) example of this was the renaming of sauerkraut to liberty cabbage.
