frau_germaniaGermania: The area of land on the east bank of the Rhine, or inner Germania. It was also the name given to Berlin by the third Reich, for the projected renewal of the German capital, and part of the vision for the future of Germany after WWII."
This Journal is for the most part public, but comments are disabled on most entries. This is a place to really speak my mind as it were, through old (or new) photographs, works of art, or simply writing it down.
I might rant a bit, post articles and say things that are indeed offensive to some, to make a point. Even if I don't entirely agree with everything in said articles.
Additionally; while politics and military have nothing to do with one's cultural heritage, I will say that I am fascinated by the Third Reich before and during WWII.
Don't let the imagery of any swastikas you may find here fool you. I do not agree with most of the political ideology of the NSDAP.
I do however consider the propaganda/art, architecture, civic projects, cultural identity, perseverance and uniforms in Germany during that period to be some of the most stunning the 20th century had seen, and that we have seen since.
And yes, I have a 'thing' for German uniforms ;-)
However, I am less worried about what race is better, and more concerned with the preservation of my heritage and cultural traditions, which are so quickly being forgotten and lost.
Though perhaps *I am* concerned for my own race and its preservation as well, that in essence, encompasses these cultures and traditions.
So as a warning, there might just be a few "racially poignant" posts within; just my thoughts and comments on things I have seen and experienced as a person of central European/American nationality and race.
If you are easily offended by any of this, you shouldn't read further.
With that said, I suspect I shall get some hate-mail once in a while from the overly sensitive.
I will likely not add 'friends' to this journal, since anyone can read and occasionally comment.
If anyone truly feels the need to discuss any entry that has comments disabled, they are welcome to send me a private message.
