It wasn't just Germany either. For example, Denmark had a very progressive sweeping criminal law reforms in the late 60s (IIRC), which included the legalization of porn, and they just sort of forgot to make an exception for child porn, so that was made legal too. Totally a honest mistake, guys, whoops, teehee. This led to at least one company commercially producing CP, completely in the open; you could buy videos of preteens getting raped in adult video stores for a few years:

There was other shit, too, the Pedophile Information Exchange (PIE) in the UK, French "intellectuals" who are worshipped by midwits to this day demanding the end to the age of consent, NAMBLA and the founding of the "Pride movement" (by NAMBLA and other pedophiles - they're not "hijacking" the movement, they started it)... I lost the original source (it's quoted in the Born Gay Hoax book), but apparently in the 60s, groups of angry leftist homos were outright demanding that all small children are removed from their parents and given to gay communities for "education". The removal of homosexuality from the DSM happened around the same time, and due to pressure from the same revolutionary faggots.
There was some other funny shit that happened, like a Swiss communist kike terrorist firing Soviet-supplied RPGs at a prototype French nuclear power plant and then some years later admitting to it in a book (and calling a fucking rocket attack "nonviolent", too). Nothing ever happened to him either.

The West had been dying since at least WWII, but the revolution in the 60s was what finished it off. It wasn't just a sexual revolution, it was a communist takeover. First they thought they'd openly establish communism, but the people were horrified when they got the slightest taste of what was coming, so these boomers at the vanguard instead went into politics and government jobs and now they run the EU as well as every western government. It's called the "long march through the institutions". The absolute degeneracy you see all around today is the result. It's only going to get worse, we're not nearly at the level of late 1960s yet.
The USA got hit by this too. I'd recommend reading this for some history that's readily available yet nobody in the mainstream ever speaks of for some crazy reason.
