The so called start up scene is complete joke: Delivery Hero, Lieferando , Zalando, Auto 1 and all these poop up companies with no real value, ran by a bunch of clowns and wankers!
These people are like robots. They can't operate when they see something which they are not used to. I find this so funny. I live in an apartment where there is a dedicated park places for all people. Each person has Its own dedicated park spot as well (not officially but It is kind of custom). Actually, It has been recently extended and there are currently more places to park than people who live in the apartment.
Anyways, just recently a German person who entered the park place and saw, her place is occupied by another car. What do normal people do ? Look for another place to park because there are actually other spots. What did this German do ? She was passive aggresively honking like crazy multiple times, looked so stunned and did not know what to do.
I observe the same behaviour from Germans at work place as well. When they encounter with something which is different than what they have been doing regularly, they become so confused and can't function at all.
They are so dumb. Once I saw a German who was stunned a car didn't slow down when he was 5m from one of those zebra crossing things that he threw a ties up bag of dog poop at the car but with like a 10 second delay so it was obvious it was nowhere close to hitting it. Then that idiot walked over and picked it back up.
YES, ROUND UP ALL THE SCUMMY ANTIFAS AND THROW THEM IN PRISON FOR LIFE!

The fact that it's taken the Berlin police over 6 months to arrest these LOSERS underscores how fuckt the German legal system truly is. But that's also obvious every single time they finally get around to releasing pictures of wanted criminals - almost never happens until 6-8 months after the crime! How people think operating like this is OK?
I met some germans on my travels. They stank. Yet swam and still stank. I think this comes down to the type of food they are eating.
One time I visited the Berlin Mietverein because my Nebenkostenabrechnung was wrong and the guy started looking at all my costs and said something like "Wow your water use sure is high! I have two children and mine is lower, but then again my kids go swimming in our pool a lot in summer". I think these knuckle draggers really think swimming is a substitute for bathing.
People smoking from aluminum foil on the stairs to the U8. Seriously? Neukölln is a dump.
also, they have colonised Gneisenaustr / the Markthalle there around Bergmannstr. And this milieu is growing and growing every year. Police were circulating this neighbourhood regularly recently and vans parked opposite the Market hall - with the police looking at the paying customers... why?! Why don"t they focus on solving this homless/drug-addicted/unhygienic crowd which is poluting the area. Kids are playing around there and those working just want to enjoy their lunch... but instead have to smell rotting flesh... be begged at... then made to feel guilty for not supporting their drug habit... not to mention the danger of needles/drug paraphernalia. I get this isn't something with a quick-fix solution to solve it overnight, and I have pity but I also question why this is allowed to happen. Oh... and I just wanna get to WORK (remember this concept), why do I have to dodge the crazies like gladiators... fearing some nutter is going to push me onto the tracks. BVG... install barriers... why does public transport mean second class in this city. In UK or other places that just is not the case. All professionals I know do not use public transport anymore and that seems a pity as the traffic will increase... and it is less eco etc etc. Anyway two rants for the price of one here!
Germans believe you can get a urinary tract infection from walking around barefoot on cold floors. What the fuck?
I’m trying to understand if expats just get broken from Berlin and start being as cold as the Germans when it comes to dating. I’d just like to connect with someone not have some trashy fuckinggg hookup. Seems like everyone feels this is laughable. Sorry what’s wrong with that ?
There is no point in having relationships nowadays. No wonder so many men are going MGTOW.
At best you get a used-up woman who has seen more sausage than the average urologist.
At worst you get the same woman, but she wants you to spend a small fortune on her.
I can only agree with what you guys are saying. I think others need to be a bit more wary of who they decide to hook up with here. It seems that qualities/ideals like respect, empathy and building a connection to someone don't count for much these days, which is a shame. To be fair it's not just an issue here, but it does seem to be on another level here.
I haven’t seen seen as many sausages as the regular urologist, but darn sure the next man better spend a small fortune on me!
In 3 years here, haven’t have anyone wanting to dine and wine me aka. a regular normal date.
Sorry poor-future-boyfriend. You‘ll have to compensate for the attention, affection I lacked in Berlin. Thank you and love you!
Above, get a fricking sense of humor.
Dating is nice, being nice to your date is nice, doing old school things like dinner date and movie dates and bla, are nice.
Women like men who make an effort in the mating ritual.
You might get some with your beers-at-späti-hangouts, but probably an insecure/troubled/needy/depressed/in a weird phase etc. girl that might even suck you in a public toilet. You might win for the moment, but don’t complain getting women with no standards after.
Something that would happen in Berlin after a 2€ beer.
Being a stingy victimising innocent man is the local sport.
Real men treat women differently, but you would not know about that, I guess.
I think I don't disagree with most of what you're saying, but don't punish a good man because you had to live with the scum of the earth in Berlin. Although if I ever get out of here I am only going to date extremely feminine, non-German-looking women so maybe I am the same as you. Who knows.
Lol BH must be the only place in the world where the term “German” is being used as derogatory, as we accuse each other of being German when we don’t agree with them. I love it! Weiter so!
Here is how to become German.
-Denounce religion while claiming that you are interested in Budhism.
-Dislike patriotism and nationalism simply because both are forbidden to you
-Travel a lot, but never learn any foreign language properly. Also never learn about foreign cultures and develop intercultural understanding.
-When you see a foreigner, avoid asking them about their day. Instantly ask where are they from, what they do in Germany and whether and when they plan on going back. The conversation is to be ended once you get enough answers for your racial profiling.
-Claim you have a lot of foreign friends so that no one can accuse you of being racist.
-Upload pictures of you feeding children in Asia or Africa to show how cultured you are. In real life, avoid Asians and African people unless you got a fetish
-Constantly denounce racism and far-right extremism while secretly considering non-Germans as inferior and passive-aggressively treating them as such.
-Complain about foreigners not wanting to integrate into German culture, even though you can't really define what German culture is because there hasn't been real German culture in decades. It is a carbon-copy of American pop culture.
-Demand foreigners to learn German while belittling them either for their accent or grammar mistakes.
-Be a feminist, but support the immigration of people who don't have any respect for women.
-Claim you are "green" and eco-friendly but your constant travelling by plane does more harm than not buying fair-trade products.
-Think you are cool because you listen to sh*tty indie bands no one cares about, sport dreadlocks, drink yerba mate, sport a nose ring (this is non-negotionable in Berlin), get inked.
-Complain about foreigners having a lot of children, while at the age of 40 you are already in your 4th open relationship.
-Obsess over tidiness and order, while neglecting your personal hygiene.
-Believe your country is rich, even though you work at a stressful job to earn barely 2000 euros, most of which you spend on rent. You, the citizen of a rich country, live in a tuna can, drive a second-hand car and will never own a house. House ownership is higher in Romania and Poland, countries you consider to be poor and/or inferior.
-Claim you have learned from the past, but secretly dislike Poles, Brits, the French, while adoring Spaniards and Italians.
-Dislike the USA, but travel to the USA and consume American media.
-Denounce Americans as racist and backward, in spite of the fact that non-white migrants often do a lot better in the USA than in Germany, where you are reduced to menial jobs and low social status. Besides, a lot of people dream of moving to the USA to become Americans. People who move to Germany end up either wanting to leave, or refusing to integrate.
-Be arrogant and rude, but pretend you are just honest and straightforward.
-Be too cold and robotic to connect with people, but pretend you are not into superficial connections.
-Think you are better than everyone else, even though you suck at winning wars.
Well said OP. I lived in Berlin and Eastern Germany and can relate to just about everything you say. I do have a minor disagreement as I would also add that I have an Italian friend who lived in Germany for 20 years and had to leave due to impacts on her mental well-being. She encountered people in Germany who would refuse to lease their apartments out to Italians (and other foreigners). Her and her husband (whom I regard as great people) spent nearly six months looking for an apartment. She now regrets having spent so long in Germany and getting so caught up in all the BS that us mere foreigners have to put up with.
This post describes those evil closet Nazis perfectly well. What you said is the truth of the situation here. Germans/Berliners have to be the worst group of human beings I have ever personally encountered. This city and the locals are just disgusting human beings, just trash. I don’t think they have ever heard of personal development either. I think if you meet a 40 or 50 year old German their personality would be the same when they were 20 years. These people don’t grow as human being at all. Don’t forget they will absolutely take advantage of you if giving the opportunity. I just freaking hate Germans and this fucking, nasty, drug induced city.
It's pathetic how rude, lazy, unprofessional, and inefficient native Berliners are. The Berlin schnauze is not because of the weather or the alcoholism. I think the wall gave them some kind of mental complex. They never learned to compete and function in an open world. After it opened the good ones left, and the rest are doing their damnedest to grouch away all the outsiders. They want us to leave and they want to shut themselves off and wrap up again in a nice cozy wall.
The Berlin guys kind of got it the right way with regards to just doing a job. But part of the job is for example like in service to actually provide service. I think they took that the wrong way (lol) And this might be a limited view I have no idea. But might make one more happy as for after the job. I mean if you do a poor job you're not gonna receive much or like the opposite. But Idk if that's true.
Someone earlier sad that Poles also lived under commie Soviet rule, but they are much nicer than Germans, and it's true. I spent six months touring Poland last year and the food was great, the people very pleasant and the cities are beautiful. Also very cheap. Look up Retro Apartmenty in Poznan and go their for a weekend or long weekend, very cheap and lots of very good restaurants. I was surprised at how good Poland is, so don't be put off by he 0.01% of scummy alcoholic Poles in the U-Bahn, the other 99.99% in Poland are very different. If you want some tips about Poznan, let me know and I'll post them here. Make sure you have a burger at Mixtura.
If you go to Poznan, get a bicycle straight away and ride along the river and also the Citadel Park. Make sure you eat eat eat, the food is great. I'm vegan and it's the best vegan food I've tasted, but I'm sure the meat places will also be good. If you want to try great vegan food go to www.happycow.net/europe/poland/poznan/ the best worldwide directory. I definitely recommend Wypas and also The old town is stunningly beautiful and don't be afraid to talk to locals, they are very helpful and pleasant. If you want wonderful nature, go south of Krakow. Poland is not about monstrous touristy attractions like the Eiffel Tower and Big Ben, it's more subtle, and very relaxed. Just walking around Poznan and getting a feel for the ambience is a treat. Another food place www.happycow.net/reviews/geranium-caffe-poznan-107709
Make sure you have a burger at Mixtura. Enjoy. Book in advance for cheap train tickets.
Germany requires certain people coming to this country to complete a 600 hour (!) "integration course". Not sure what is taught there but using my common sense I would assume they teach you to just ignore anything you don't like, e.g. to ignore all the people peeing in public, all the rowdy drunks, the people getting attacked with bottles in the U-Bahn, etc.
