Cultural Difference?

I am a german american living in socal. And people make fun of the fact that my opa fought in WWII for nazi germany. He himself was not a nazi. And so they call me a nazi just becuz i am proud of my heritage. Now if someone were to make fun of mexicans or the chinese they would get all defensive, but sense not many people in Socal are german i have no support. WOUld this happen in places in the east coast like pennsylvania?

this does not happen on the east coast. Plus u can not count ur grandfather as a Nazi. A Nazi is a political party that took over Germany. It does nothing with race issues what so ever. Every culture has something bad.

Russians- wet crazy with communism
Jews- fascist and is currently doing genocide to Palestinians
Cuban- try to buy nukes
British- snooty

There are ignorant people everywhere who will insult you for no good reason. No one should seriously consider you responsible for anything that your ancestors did, no matter what the nature of the action was.

Since I’ve only visited — and never lived in Socal — I can’t comment on how judgmental people there may be. But I can tell you that you are more likely to find people tolerant of your situation where there are more people of backgrounds similar to yours — and there are plenty of people of German heritage in Pennsylvania (and Maryland).
