I caused a minor diplomatic incident between the development organisations of the Netherlands and Germany in a small African country.
I was working for the Dutch organisation as an intern. There was a little get together of the organisations at a local bar. When introductions were made I used a WW2 term to describe our boss. I said 'this is our ubersturmbahnfuhrer'.
This was not the right thing to say, as the leader of the German team was an ex-east German and staunch antifascist with little sense for my perceived 'humor'. He felt personally insulted by being compared thusly and I had to shamefully go down to their offices and profusely apologize.

It's thriving die to slave labor and violent racism.

They should take a page from China's playbook and up the ante. Trump will back out.
