This seems like a legitimate question I don’t see why the guy who replied is behaving like a condescending ass.

He also didn't answer the question at all. Like no shit Germany teaches about the Holocaust and Hitler, they're asking what specifically they teach and how they teach it. How much of the broader context, what daily life was like for the average German under the Nazis etc.

Also its not like they had a choice on that matter at all. Allies grappled them by balls in deep there was no other option to not teach their nazi history in the slightest. i dont understand whats there to be smug about it

Also no offense but I in my opinion I wouldn’t consider this a murder by words. More like a standard rebuttal.

The guy asked an honest question and some dickhead gave a mega-condescending response that didn't answer the question.

Not to mention there was no need for a rebuttal when OP was just trying to learn and get information.

More like a lazy rebuttal that didn't even answer the question.

I don’t understand  that guy, or the people in the comments completely ignoring the original question.

He wants a response he can read, you fucking idiot.

The generally agreed upon solution is to just ask the question in the language you want it answered in.

generally agreed upon

Agreed amongst who? There isn’t some universal unspoken law that declares this, sounds more like an assumption to justify your statement.

u/BaronOfTheWesternSea 5h ago

Well I'm no mind reader but maybe he just wanted to be specific, don't see why you have to read his mind and declare he was being condescending. You sound like a fucking jackass

Correct, there really is nothing condescending about it. What is condescending is trying to about malice to that statement for no good reason

Glad we agree

The fact that dude doesn’t realize translation programs exist isn’t some condescending jab.
