In my case, apparently not, no... though I'm not sure that my actual result is anything to be proud of :(


The Everyday German
Achtung! You are 53% brainwashworthy, 18% antitolerant, and 38% blindly patriotic .

Had you lived in Germany in the 1930s, you'd have probably just gone along with the flow. Men with guns are surrounding the house next door? The bagel place on the corner's gone? Hmm...whatever.

The data show you're a decent person who's willing to listen to what people of authority tell you. That's what most people are, and in most times and most places, that's ok. But not then; not there.

The sad conclusion: you would've missed your Jewish friends, but you would've done nothing about it. Seriously. But rest assured, you would've forgiven yourself eventually.

Achtung! You are 30% brainwashworthy, 27% antitolerant, and 47% blindly patriotic

Welcome to the Resistance (Der Widerstand)! You believe in freedom, justice, equality, and your country, and you can't be converted to the the dark side.

Breakdown: your Blind Patriotism levels are borderline unhealthy, but you show such a love of people from everywhere and a natural resistance to brainwashing, you would probably focus your energy to fight the Fuehrer with furor, so to speak.

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would have taken up ARMS against the oppressors. Or even your friends' oppressors. Congratulations!

Less than 5% of all test takers earn a spot in the Resistance!

Made me a footsoldier, but that's more because of the wording of the questions. When it asked if I would serve my country, I said yes because I would support MY country the way it is now. I believe enough in this country that I would go to war for it. But, that's taking into account the way THIS country is TODAY.

Were some of the questions to accurately identify the form of answer they were requesting, I'd imagine many results would be different.

Still, looking at the breakdown of answers to the conclusions they reach per this test, I can see where I wound up. Now look at it this way, were this talking about the US today, I'd be quite proud of my answer.

Just a note: please don't use the HTML code the site provides to post your result. There must be something wrong with it, because it goofed up Pode's post. Just copy/paste the text :)

Congratulations! You are not susceptible to brainwashing, your values and cares extend beyond the borders of your own country, and your Blind Patriotism does not reach unhealthy levels. If you had been German in the 30s, you would've left the country.

One bad scenario -- as I hypothetically project you back in time -- is that you just wouldn't have cared one way or the other about Nazism. Maybe politics don't interest you enough. But the fact that you took this test means they probably do. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt.

Did you know that many of the smartest Germans departed prior to the beginning of World War II, because they knew some evil **** was brewing? Brain Drain. Many of them were scientists. It is very possible you could have been one of them.

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would not have been a Nazi.

Achtung! You are 7% brainwashworthy, 31% antitolerant, and 19% blindly patriotic

How very interesting. I think I'd agree. Especially the 7% brainwashworthy part. I don't listen to anyone and I distrust most governments/parties/corporations/organizations/groups of affiliated peoples to some degree.

Then again, maybe I just would've been the guy designing the bombs...

Achtung! You are 23% brainwashworthy, 9% antitolerant, and 33% blindly patriotic.

That's about right, but I agree with Mitch, because of the wording it's a tricky test to score accurately. I assumed some questions with the status quo and some when I need lawyers, guns and money.

Won't deny it, it's probably true. I'd have sat back and done little or nothing about what was going on, even if I hated it. I can be useless in such situations.

(Achtung! You are 46% brainwashworthy, 36% antitolerant, and 47% blindly patriotic)

"You're not evil exactly, but you still would've joined the German army. Driven by STRONG patriotism and a willingness to do what your country asks, you would've thrown your moral reservations aside and stepped right up to the platz for the AXIS POWERS.

The sad fact is: while you're not self-centered, you are are an enthusiastic nationalist, malleable like so much half-dried glue, and ready to follow zee rules. Unfortunately, you're not cynical enough to tell when you're being manipulated. You probably have a violent itch that needs scratching anyhow, so why ask questions?

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would've supported the Nazis militarily while turning a blind eye to their 'civilian' programs.



Yeesh.. >_<

Course this doesn't take into account that if we were growing up in 1930's Germany that we wouldn't have been raised with a history of what 1930's Germany was like and that would have no affect on our results. In addition being raised in a vastly different time its a bit naieve to think we would be making choices exactly the same as we are now.

That being said...d'oh, tried the site and its blocked here at work.

This test is unfair. Which (non-Americans) honestly didn't want them to be publically humiliated? Hmm?

What do you mean?

I mean, the question about which two groups of people would you want publically "put down". A fair few non-Americans would probably like to see that happen (to Americans - one of the choices). Heck, apparently 30% of us Brits would vote for Hugh Grant after he did that in Love Actually!

Achtung! You are 69% brainwashworthy, 59% antitolerant, and 85% blindly patriotic
You probably you lack the charisma and intelligence to be Hitler himself, but then again, who knows? You've got a few of the necessary traits, at least. You are crazy, nationalistic, and more proud of your background than you should be.

Right now I am breathing a big sigh of relief that you don't live in Germany in the 1930's, although I guess things couldn't have gone any worse than they did, even with your help. Maybe all this energy that you feel right now could be directed to an end less evil? Are you a Police Officer? Not in my town, I hope.

Sadly, you exceeded expectations on all 3 indicators.

Deutschland: Uber Alles!

You scored higher than 96% on brainwashworthy

You scored higher than 82% on antitolerant

You scored higher than 93% on patriotic

What does antitolerant mean? And who on earth thinks that some races/types of people deserve to be publicly humiliated!? :shakefist
