What are you trying to say here?
Germany took in a ton of refugees (migrants is the wrong word), some percentage of which have has extreme trouble moving into a very different culture, it was a huge culture shock for everyone and it had led to problems inside the country that are fueling this hatred.
Not fucking rocket science.

I think everyone saw issues will happen 10 years ago, when Germany took excessive amount of refugees. Though on the one hand, way before the migration crisis, Europe had been criticised for not taking in both migrants and refugees, many of whom died being denied entry. You can never please both sides when it comes to migration.

Yeah I had a really hard time fitting in. It was pretty difficult not to constantly harass women when I first arrived in Europe. My mom told me to treat women with respect but my Arab nature just makes it impossible.
My plan was to live from social benefits and steal jobs from people like you but I never received any benefits so I just ended up working because apparently no local was able to do that job (wtf are you guys doing?).
I also had a hard time fitting into liberal, democratic society. My natural urge to oppress women and dominate locals was only topped by my inability to accept freedom of speech.
When I went to an anti-genocide protest I learned that I’m not allowed to speak Arabic and that a Palestine flag is a terror symbol, which somehow makes sense again considering that Palestine is also a middle eastern country and it’s in our blood to be terrorists. On the other hand you can basically say that everyone in Gaza should be killed and it should become a parking lot and that seems fine? I’m still trying to figure out how freedom of speech works given that I have never experienced it before.
Maybe you can teach me how to become a proper citizen, someone as decent as you are sensei?
Nah you’ll fit right in: Your incapacity to engage with a topic in good faith rivals that of AfD voters.
You do seem to be aware of the crass differences in societal organisation. Maybe, on reflection, you could see that I wasn’t actually dissing your clan, I was pointing out that you care about it. Arabs coming here tend to be caught in between their familial obligations and what local society expects of them as individuals, and struggle to regard the people around them as not strangers (because not clan members) but familiar (because you’re living in the same region).
Go ahead, make the jump, say “My clan is now <village in Bavaria>”. That is hard. It’s more than just moving to a different place, it’s changing very core, and often unconscious, concepts about how identity and the in/outgroup distinction is constructed. Suddenly, you’re expected to be familiar with people you don’t even know, that you’ve seen at no wedding, no nothing. Migrating between different region-based societies is kinda akin to marrying into another clan: Sure you’ll have to adapt but you already know the basic rules. Switching between the two systems a whole different game altogether.
You don’t have a right to assembly in the first place, as a foreigner, though it’s generally tolerated. If you want to influence German politics, why speak a language that practically noone here understands? Your English seems to be just fine, and from what I recollect police were also fine with English. They need to be able to tell whether you’re shouting “Peace be on earth” or “Gas the Jews”, simple as that.
Which you’d readily understand if you had a region-based mindset: The necessity to stick with the people around you, instead of the cousin half-way around the earth. What will the cousin think if you’re standing in Berlin, not speaking Arabic, bowing to the sensitivities of the local heathens? Heavens! What will other clans think if members of our clan do that kind of thing, our standing will be tarnished! We must uphold our image of virtue or our sons and daughters will never marry into a rich and powerful clan! Why even protest if it’s not in Arabic our cousins won’t understand and they are the ones who need to see that we’re doing the virtuous thing!
Yeah I’ve seen those pictures you sent, posing in front of a Mercedes, to show how well you’re doing abroad: Just like a Sheikh, your family can be proud. Was it at least a rental or did you use a parked one?
the germanic skull is uniquely shaped in a way that maximizes both ignorance and arrogance resulting in often incoherent ramblings with no clear point. Ridiculing these tirades usually result in a smug dismissal of the conversation while claiming victory or it angers the german causing it to respond with wishes or promises of harm.
Can you explain how what I said is racist? I was talking about cultural practices, societal organisation. The cultural differences I allude to are all rather well-established anthropology. Left-wing anthropology on top of that, Emmanuel Todd started that whole thing.
On the flipside, can you explain how “the germanic skull is uniquely shaped in a way that maximizes both ignorance and arrogance.” isn’t? Can you show me those phrenological characteristics in this example? The man does speak better Low Saxon than me, that’s for sure, so obviously he’s more German, even more Saxon, than me.
EDIT: As to your edit:
If that’s not straight-up projection I’d say pot calling the kettle black, don’t you think? Not even an tiny bit of smug dismissal in there?
Alas being german I have this terrible affliction myself 😔
Ah, well, insight is the first step to betterment.
*vanishes in a puff of arrogance*
Sensei, I am a citizen now so I have every right you have. Are you saying that in western liberal democracy a good citizen speaks only English and German? Is French okay as well or is it forbidden? What about Spanish, Turkish, Dutch, Hebrew? Would you say this chart is accurate?
Seriously though are you okay? I’m legit having trouble following your line of argument and your strategy seems to be to completely overwhelm everyone with incoherent walls of text.
Btw I can also go through your comment history, don’t be a racist dick just because you have family in Israel. Maybe tell them to stop being genocidal maniacs and maybe stop being one yourself.
Unlike you, I won’t say that Germans by nature have an urge to commit genocide. I just think some people like you are giant dicks for supporting that and for all the hatemongering.
If you actually went through my history you’d have seen that I called what Israel is doing a genocide on every second occasion, and have been saying “The Kahanites will use the opportunity” on like day two after October 7th.
The “only” is your addition, and your addition alone. At least try to argue in good faith, will you. Do you have no other trick but straw-manning.
As to “incoherent walls of text”: Go read Emmanuel Todd if you need further elucidation, in particular “The Explanation of Ideology: Family Structure & Social Systems”. It’s not the most recent, there’s been further empirical research after that but the broad strokes still stand and the book is an easy read.
[citation needed]. If anything I would say that humans have, regrettably, that tendency. Humans are rabidly violent creatures.
Also I was always, and only, talking culture, in this thread. Not nature as in genetics or something. Why do you keep making shit up.
Jesus, if british comedy didn’t exist, people would think English is just for joyless, shitty, jerks
Thanks, this doesn’t explain why OP is sharing that anecdote and I still don’t know what they’re trying to say with it.
Are they saying Germans hate Muslims? Are they saying hating Muslims is justified?
Removed by mod
Neither, they’re giving an anecdotal example of the effects of what I previously noted.
Yeah that’s trivial to mention. I still care about why they shared the anecdote and you can repeat the obvious as much as you want but it won’t answer my question.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.
So make us drink water, say what you wanna say
I mean you said it yourself, answer is obvious. Peace!
Not what I said, bye.
