Surely this Sjeef is totally clueless!

I am German and I will gladly eat Sauerkraut and nothing in the world will make me call it salt-fermented cabbage or some other kind of odd name.

This deutsche Hausfrau will buy, cook and eat Sauerkraut without ever taking offense, even if Germans a long time ago were nicknamed Krauts.

There are a lot of Germans working in the skilled trades and I've
worked with many... whenever asked their ethnicity they'd proudly
respond, "Ach, Kraut!" What's for lunch; "Veiners mit kraut." What
do you drive; on this pay vot else, a Wolks Vagon!

Nothing like Fine German Engineering!

I could never afford a Porsche but Ferdinand Porsche was a German engineer and airplane builder. Hitler came to Porsche and said "Thou Shalt Make The Volkswagen!" and Porsche of course said "YES Mein Furher!" and pulled a little flat four ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) he was using in light aircraft and held it aloft and said "Fan Shroud!"

It's just a bored troll...too many snow days at home, maybe. Picking on a nationality isn't "racist,"
anyway, so the troll is just an uneducated dolt. It would be bigoted if it were a fact, which it isn't.

Buh-bye.

Yes, it's almost the same the English called Bobbies and the French
Frogs, and of course the Italians Spaghetti eaters. And so on and on.
Just funny names, Nothing to do with racism. For that there were other names.

German is NOT a race, however certain inferior brained believe
otherwise... German is an ethnicity. Kraut is simply the German for
cabbage... Some Germans indeed possesss the IQ of a cabbage. The
Germans are in fact as a group rather sour and humorless.
