This was in the western part of Germany. The allies were a little kinder to the Germans after the war. Yes they hanged the leaders they caught. But the kurutu was basically a free man following some formalities. Maybe you want to share evidence to contradict the smiling faces in that part of the world and history.
True, Western Germans got off lightly, those who suffered were in the East. Let us not forget the carpet bombings of German cities by the allies, they tasted hell too. I don't think those videos tell the whole story. WWII broke Germany's spirit.
But they were by the ordinary meaning of the word. Their savagery stage was way back during the Roman empire and maybe medieval times. By comparison, ts of Africa were still tribal until colonization, and even then it's still a struggle to get some countries to a nation-state level. ing advanced or backward, doesn't say anything about innate abilities. Do you doubt that the ancient Songhai empire was more advanced than today's Pygmies?
That is the story mzungu tells himself, its the their conceit, "we are enlightened, we are civilized, and its our burden to civilize you". Those pernicious ideas can unconsciously slip into your African mind, beware. They are savages who have better technology and organization. Look at the quick rise of the fascist far right and its ideas in supposedly modern Germany. They have not undergone metamorphosis to become better humans. German savagery was not limited to the Roman period, Poles will dispute that, they have suffered at the hands of Germans till 1945, the Baltic states were terrorized for a thousand years by the Germans, the Namibians will contest your assertions about German enlightenment.
Are some societies more adept at self organization than others? Yes, does it mean they are better or have more value ? No
