Is this the same Germany that actually didn't really denazify? I'm referencing the book "nazi billionaires" here. The Oetkers, Von Fincks, and Quandts are nazi billionaire dynasties, and not enough Germans are talking about this, it's really sad to see these insanely wealthy and powerful families escape accountability for the crimes of their nazi ancestors

The same Germany, that tried to ban their nazi party (NPD) 2001 and failed because so many high party officials were funded by the intelligence agencies that the court couldn't distinguish between genuine party and state project. Then the head of that agency went on to found his own nazi party (die Heimat).
