I'm so glad you replied to that comment with this. I immediately thought the same thing when I read the original comment. Thank you for spreading this important information that too little people know!

...God this makes me so mad. This place was based as hell and not only did the Nazis ruin it, West Germany looked at what happened afterwards and went "meh, 'salright, I guess."
