Wow… there was even one instance where he wrote the word 'Nazi' and another where he mentioned the head of state, but of course he preferred the terms 'German' and 'Germany' because those sound friendlier and downright neighbourly compared to 'Nazi', 'Fascist', 'Reich', or 'Axis'. Most people don't tense up when they hear the word 'German'. You got your German shepherds, your German Spitze, your German pancakes, your German fries, your German lutes, your German biscuits, your German chocolate cakes. Those sound friendly! You hear 'Want some German beer?' and you go either 'Yeah, sure' or 'Eh, no thanks.' You hear 'Want some Nazi beer?' and you go 'Wait, WHAT‽'
