Your country is actively attacking our democracies and is threatening war over an European oversea territory.

We need all the help we can get.

Help with what? We cannot resist for you. That is something you have to do yourself outside of social media.

No it's not. It's a gGmbH. Notice the leading "g". It's a nonprofit company.

Unfortunately there is no English translation of that page on Wikipedia.

There were gay Nazis?

E.g.: Ernst Röhm - the leader of the Nazi SA - was gay.

And to make your head explode: There where jews who supported Hitler.

Spoiler: It didn't end well.

I made my peace. She too had a history that made her the person she was and it's sad that she had to go thru the panic inducing process of dying. In the end she was a human with hopes and feelings just like me. It's just that we never matched. From time to time I think of her but I'm not missing her. I miss my dad. He was the innocent person that found himself in the crossfire.

It’s time to get tough

I’ll take things that won't happen for 200$.

E.g. (auto-translated):

How such preparation for Trump’s success might look was demonstrated by a live broadcast from CDU politician Johann Wadephul on the morning after the 2024 U.S. election. While Merz had warned about Trump before the state elections in eastern Germany, little of that sentiment was evident in his deputy, reports Die Zeit. Wadephul reportedly made no mention of Trump’s extremism or any threat to democracy. Instead, he emphasized, 'We need a good relationship with whichever U.S. government is in power,' focusing on economic aspects.

Merz wants to approach Trump: Deal desired before the new election

And the CDU will most likely lead Germany's next government early next year.
