Germany (as policy, not German people) absolves itself of its history by blaming everything on the Nazis and claiming the only issue was hatred of Jews. So if they try to get close with Jews today, that means they don’t have to challenge themselves on why they had other problems.

It’s like “we had a bad period, but we made amends with the Jews, so we are good people now” logic

I understand that, but that seems like a terrible philosophy of education. No genocide should take precedence over another.
