Careful with those "comparisons". ;)

I was taught to always spot parallels to historical events in order to understand the present. Being German, our teachers really hammered that into our heads for 13 years. Especially my history teacher, Mr. Jürgen Riedell.

German media really an enormous amount of energy into making sure we do not draw any comparisons to The Third Reich in the past 3 years. All channels told us this explicitely over and over and over and over and over and over again until we would forget what our teachers taught us over and over and over and over and over and over again.

So I have done just that. We see the mass dying of our elders, are implored to go easy on energy consumption (Kohlenklau) and well, war.

Some journalists somehow got their will though:
