https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdjyjlkewr2o Excerpt: Eighteen-year-old Charlotte Kreft says her own pacifist views have changed. "For a really long time, we thought the only way to make up for the atrocities we committed in World War Two was to make sure it never happened again […] and we thought we needed to demilitarise," Charlotte explains. "But now we are in a situation where we have to fight for our values and democracy and freedom. We need to adapt." "There are lots of Germans who still feel strange about big investments in our military," Ludwig Stein agrees. "But I think considering the things that have happened in the past few years, there's no other real option." As Dun Groanin says in MoA: 18 years old. Knows everything. Knows about atrocities that her grandparents committed in WW2 and for them not to be repeated. A fucking teenager! Knows a lot. But is ready to give up pacifism and get going with the atrocities of her grandparents too! |
