Maybe poetic is the wrong word. Kristal means cristal (if not obvious) which is a shiny and very positive conotated word. The message is that destroying all the synagogues with all the violence included is a good thing because it makes Germany look better.
I never used the framing “bad tast”. I explained why the term isn’t used in Germany anymore and why it’s ok that Sabatan used it. What even is your problem?
Ok, I don’t think it’s bad taste because I don’t blame non native speakers for not knowing all the nuances. If it was a more or less recent German homepage, it would be a different story. But anyway, I think it’s more important what you say than which words you use.
I don’t know how common these words are in English and I don’t blame anyone for not following the discussions held in another country.
