Questo è di agosto: l’ho saputo solo di recente, ma non sembra che ci sia molto là fuori in termini di reazione.
How has the news of Volkswagen being found guilty of running slave plantations in Brazil in the 1970 & 80s been received in Germany?

No one is surprised considering their history in WW 2
Germans be like 🤷🏼♂️
Wundert einen eigentlich nicht mehr so viel Scheisse bei deutschen “Traditionsfirmen” im Keller zu finden.
Full ignorance. (Really, it’s almost disgusting, but typical for Germany)
Was acknowledged and didn’t seem people were surprised. Brazil was under military rule at that time
It was news item several years ago. This is the judicial part only.
Also: It did jot surprise anyone for real back then.
Welcome to capitalism. First day on this planet?
The discovery is truly unsettling, and it’s difficult not to feel deeply affected by it. Yet, despite the disturbing nature of what has come to light, the way it has been documented and presented is remarkably well done. It manages to strike a careful balance between honesty and sensitivity, neither sensationalizing the subject nor downplaying its gravity. The presentation invites reflection and empathy rather than mere shock, and that makes it all the more powerful. It’s one of those rare cases where something heartbreaking has been handled with genuine care and thoughtfulness.
That’s fifty years ago.
Nobody in charge during those days is alive anymore.
For you it changed your entire life, for me it was a Tuesday… Something like that
