That Germans with their “special responsibility” allowed right-wing extremists to get anywhere near the levers of power in 2017 is a stunning piece of evidence that correlates the resurgence of right-wing populism with the dying out of a critical mass of people who lived through the darkness of the 1930s and 40s. It doesn’t speak well of humanity in general but is particularly shameful in the case of those Germans who voted for or downplayed the toxicity of AfD.
