The problem for Greece is that, just now, the long, bogus, conservative German elite framing of this issue is rolling towards smothering the life out of Greece, which has led the Greek people to support drastic measures to counter this effort. The existing framing has the effect of dehumanizing and demonizing the Greeks as feckless, lazy foreigners who are taking advantage of the virtuous sacrifices of the German people who deserve to be treated harshly. This is not the first time this has happened, either in Germany or other countries. Blacks and Native Americans have been treated in the same way by the dominant white culture in the USA - slavery for the one, genocide for the other.
