Why do Germans think that having committed the Holocaust gives them special privileges to speak about Jews? (hexbear.net)

The only time you should ever hear a German's opinion on genocide is if you want to know how to conduct one.

I hate that now that the Russian SMO is underway, you have Germans saying genocidal rhetoric, for example that Russians have a different view towards death and don't value life (like WEEEEEEE in the West do), and that they're not really Europeans.

I wonder why being or not being European is even worth bringing up in the first place, surely it's not a racism thing, riiiiiiight?

don't value life (like WEEEEEEE in the West do)
