Did some googling: "derogatory word for a German dating back to World War One. While the term has been used by some German musicians, many others find it highly offensive and prefer to use the term “kosmiche.” https://dangerousminds.net/comments/krautrock_v_kosmiche http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62370&PN=3
I think the smart thing is to do some research, maybe find quotes from prominent musicians or critics about it, and address it clearly in the video.
Can is Krautrock. Why should anybody be offended if they were associated with them? Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit ring a bell? Conny Plank? Legends
It's not so much about offending the musicians (who are highly unlikely to watch my video!). I'm really thinking about your regular German person & whether it's a palatable term generally.
