What does that even mean? Did you survive the Holocaust or not? You are not a Holocaust survivor just because your parents survived the Holocaust
The labeling is not unique, there are groups and organizations that call themselves just that. Just like parents in suicide survivor groups weren't the ones who committed the act.

Sounds like absurd, strategic, egoistic self-victimization to me. Am I a third-generation cancer survivor because my grandfather had cancer?
The skater's use of the music doesn't bother me, but somehow, your comment does.
I doubt she was making a political statement. It's a beautiful piece of music. On the other hand - and this is purely aesthetic - I usually like a composition with more contrast, more peaks and valleys, for a skating routine - something that really highlights the most difficult moves.
No I mean like ethnically German. If there's no such thing, then let's take them completely and finally off the hook for 12 years of Nazism, or do we just now continue to blame the entire whole non-Jewish white race?

You'll have to forgive the typical American for forgetting that the world existed before 1776 and that European history goes back thousands of years, and that northern Europe is where "very/uber white" people originate from. (Not New Jersey or Colorado.)
