Anyone else feel like Germany is only viewed positively because one day the Germans just decided to pretend that Germany is a Utopia and refuse to admit that there are any problems? Feels like A LOT of information here is suppressed or simply not reported.

It’s just proof that you can brand anything or get people to buy anything. Given there are many aesthetic things I like about Berlin, these things only came about by Fluke. This doesn’t encompass the majority of the people living in the city, well maybe now it does. Just goes to show you can save even the worst reputation with a few catch phrases and by throwing glitter on it.

Of course a lot isn’t reported, this has been discussed many times on this forum. Things like suicide and drug overdoses are rampant And where do you see that? The statistics aren’t accurate for a reason, because if people really knew the truth they wouldn’t go. Much like how their universitites are actual shit. This is why this site exists, because try to find accurate info about Germany online you simply can’t. Or have a hard time doing sl

Here's the facts. No one wants their city invaded by foreigners, it;'s hard enough dealing with one's own culture in one's own country, let alone trying to navigate other cultures that have evolved over thousands of years with very fine subtle differences.

For example, In most English speaking countries, you can speak harshly to someone by saying something like "you old bastard", but you say it in a way that the other person knows it's not meant to be taken literally, the problem with Berliners is they say harsh things with no sign that i's meant to be taken light-hearted, but amongst themselves they have some kind of secret understandings.

Multi-culturalism is a scam created by globalist companies to move cheap labour around the world, if you don't accept it, they've trained the lefties through university indoctrination to shame them as racists, but people aren't usually racist, they are culturalists, and I am one of them, I find it very stressful trying to understand different cultures, and to be honest, after a short time of being curious about their cultures, without shared cultural points of reference it's very hard to have fun with them, jokes go down like lead balloons, there is no way of having light-hearted repartee, no innuendo (in your endo) and no understanding of irony.

I have many friends who come from different backgrounds and they have different skin colours to mine, but what they do have that appeals to me is culturally they have integrated into the host country social norms, and that makes it easy to get along with them.

I find most Germans are polite when you first meet them, but it's would be very stressful for them to have so many foreigners 'invading' their traditionalist culture.

When I realised this, I Ieft, back to my own culture, and now I'm the one who doesn't want to make the effort to try to communicate with asians and africans for instance, because I know they won't get what I'm talking about, conversations will be strained, political points of view will be muddled without a shared history, and don't even start on religious backgrounds, etc etc etc.

So give them a little slack and either bite the bullet as to the way things just are, adapt fully to their culture or get out and go where you will be understood and accepted. There's no place like home. In the meantime, phuck Berliners :o)

Good try from you. People in muti-kulti LA are as fake as they come, people in London are all on medication and alcoholics and most English people have moved out of London because of multi-kulti. Multi-kulti Sydney is one of the worst cities to live in, over-priced, one big traffic jam, no parking unless you pay a fortune, stress stress and more stress, and if you don't live on the coast the other 95% live in boring suburban wastelands full of migrant gangs.

To the second poster above, Mr. Multi-Kulti, I've been to all three of those cities (London, LA, and Sydney).

I've also lived in those three cities and I know many people who have left or can hardly wait to get out. Most have gone to Brisbane because it's the least multi-kulti city in Australia. The Londoners have escaped to Sussex and Surrey to escape multi-kulti, I don't know anyone in London who likes multi-kulti, and I'm sure people in Africa, India and the Middle East don't like Multi-Kulti in their countries, in fact most of these nationalities are much more racist than western people.

Why should aI have to like other cultures, and be called a racist if I don't like them, so stop using lefty emotional blackmail. Oil and water don't mix and it's the same for cultures.

Stop playing the racist-card because you have nothing worthwhile to say, it makes you look like a lefty-loony.

The biggest issue is, no matter how hard you try, you can't succeed in this country as foreigner.

They don't even give you chance to be successful here. Do you hold B1 - B2 level of German language skills ? For Germans, It's not enough. By the way, that level of competency means you can almost handle everything in German except technical terms but you can learn It at work as well. However, their English is terrible in terms of vocabulary and pronanciation for the jobs require English skills. I know It because, I do work at global company where business is getting done in English.

They lowball the salary of foreigners with high amount of taxes. They leave you financially broken on purpose. It's impossible to get promoted here at your job and If you decide to switch careers good luck with that. Changes are not welcomed in Germany.

Dating is also terrible here. They don't tend to date with foreigners but beyond that, your partner's family don't respect you as foreign partner of their son or daughter.

They invite you parties and leave you alone there and they keep talking in German by knowing you are not good at German. They invite you for dinner they ask you how many chicken wings you would eat for example and mostly likely, they ask you to pay for what you eat / drink. This is considered extremely rude for the cultures I have interacted with in my life so far.

All of these things cumulatively make you waste your time / money in this country as foreigner with the hope that one day everything will get better. No, nothing gets better because the problem is not you, It is them.

Germans aren’t interested in any of these. They look at you as if you were from another planet because you have an accent in German. They won’t ever ask anything about your country - other than offering their complaints if they’ve been there - and their indifference if they haven’t.
They laugh at Americans but they also have zero idea about the world around them. „Oh, everyone wants to be German“.

After waiting and then realizing another person get served i went back up to the counter to get her attention but she was busy pretending to be busy.

This is very accurate and that's why this country has no understanding o expat culture. They assume that, everyone wants to settle down in Germany. I also never understand integration part.
