Typical German: passive aggressive, small minded, insecure, massive chip on their shoulder, humourless, unable to understand irony, no personality, boring, cheap, terrible social skills, low emotional intelligence, low empathy, prone to childish temper tantrums, prone to ad hominem or straw man attacks in debates or just repeating "sources?" Over and over like a robot gone haywire. Super collectivist, sheep like people who never think for themselves & are always thinking in one form of groupthink or another. They either tend to be deeply racist & prejudiced leftists who moralize at non-whites, gays etc (oh the poor dears, they need Fritz and Hans to defend them! They haven't got a brain of their own!) or deeply racist traditional Germans who just dislike/hate anyone not like themselves, but they also hate themselves & each other as well.

This is a really schizophrenic country, and Germans are very deeply psychologically disturbed people. I didn't come here at first having these views about Germans, but I am certainly leaving it with these views.

Pale as a sheet, wore all black and looked angry all the time. Fingernails chewed past the quick, always picking his nose, digging in his crotch/ass and burping or farting without embarrassment. High-pitched laugh like a 13 year-old girl. Had something disparaging to say about every other country on earth.

It reminds me of that old Eminem song " i am whatever i say i am " ,only in truth ,no you are not whatever you say you are ,i could wear a Santa Claus hat all day long but that dont make me Santa ,people here believing if you say something enough it willl make it true ?? Nahhh ,sorry ,life doesnt work like that ,only children and underdeveloped adults believe they can shapeshift and be whatever they like the idea of ,in children its cute and funny,in an adult ,its sad ,pathetic ,disturbing and shows massive lack of personal growth and development Must say im not surprised by the delusion factor shown here tho ,iv grown to accept this self deception as the norm in Berlin !

I was speaking to a Polish/Italian girl who was born & raised here. She is studying to be a lawyer and told me that in Germany, the higher positions in law, police, government, and so on, are all only for ethnic Germans. That for an immigrant it's almost impossible to be promoted to such positions, or to be given those opportunities. She said Germans want immigrants to just do low level jobs, and not aspire to be anything more than basically 2nd class citizens. She said that as a foreigner, someone without German citizenship and so on, I'm even 3rd class, and Germans will always see you that way. No matter how talented you are, no matter how smart you are, no matter how much you may want to "integrate", no matter what you have to offer to this country - it is not appreciated and in fact, they resent you for being better than them. This is the kind of thing you won't hear about from Germans, because they're either oblivious to it and/or in denial, and the silly western "expats" living their escapist fantasy lifestyle here are too stupid , unambitious and/or lack self-awareness to see it, the refugees and poor immigrants are too desperate to care, etc. So to have this kind of 'real' convo with someone-- you need to speak to someone born & raised here who isn't German and has a brain - they'll tell you the true colors of this city and country. Leaving this city in summer and I cannot wait to escape.

I have been living in Germany for almost a decade and I can confirm that what your acquaintance stated is true.
In typical passive-aggressive German fashion, they will let you immigrate and stay here, but they won't make it easy to become friends with them (unless you have something to offer, such as status increase or a nice place to stay at if they ever visit your country), nor allow you to get access to the better-paid jobs.
It takes a foreigner in the US less hard work to be succesful and for their children to belong to a better social status than in Germany. Germans like to talk about the "Bildungserfolg" (success in education) of Asians in Germany, yet I have NEVER seen an Asian person in a position of power or prestige. They usually work in their nail saloons or restaurants.

It's not about education either. You can have degrees from top universities from abroad or even from Germany and still, having the wrong name or the wrong looks will be detrimental to your wish of getting a good job.

This is not a country I'd want to raise children in, if I were a black or brown or Asian person. They'll be discriminated upon, mocked, laughed at and not because of how they behave, but because of their race. Even eastern Europeans have it hard, and they are "whiter" than Germans. Not to mention better-looking (especially the females).

That's not entirely true. There are also doctors, IT engineers, uni researchers, economists etc. with foreign background which don’t have a necessarily a voice. Unfortunately in the media you always get to hear about some auslander with low income, portrayed as second class citizens, because there are in the spotlight when some kind of bad things happen and also because the intention is to keep it that way. Someone said about law and government, I imagine it would be difficult in any country to get to have an important position where you don't have connections just your good diplomas.

A friend of mine got hit by the door a parked car, while cycling on a street with no bike lanes. The driver ( german,old ) didn’t check if the road was clear, so it was obviously his fault. After he apologized, he asked for the nr. and adress of my friend, to get back to her after the hospital visit, to check if she’s ok. Luckily it was only some minor hand injury. After a couple of days, she didn’t receive any phone calls, but a letter, where the costs of the car damage were listed, that she was urged to pay in x days. The guy took an opportunity to suck money out of the victim, because she didn’t look german and capable to handle a legal situation. Not a nice episode.

Let me tell you a story that sums up Berliners and their Ossie/Communist/monopolist way of thinking. This should have been a sign all those years ago to get the F out of here, but at least I didn't marry and/or get one of them pregnant. Here it is, word for word true. .

I went into an alternative video store and asked the guy how the system worked and he said "Pick a cover and bring it here and I'll get the movie for you". I went about my business and picked a movie cover, took it to him and he looked in a drawer and said it was rented out. I asked why he doesn't have a system that let's people know if the movie is out, like putting a card in the cover when it's put back on the shelf, he said "there's no need for that, this problem hardly ever arises". So I went back with another movie and guess what, that's right, it's already rented. I said, "that's two movies and you said that it rarely happens, can't you see that my system would save you time and also you customers", he said "You're the only one who has complained, the system works fine, I've been doing it this way for years". I of course was astonished.

I searched again and found another movie I wanted to see, went to the counter, and without a word of a lie, the same thing again. He didn't even look sheepish. I said "you're telling me that this occurrence is very rare and no one has ever complained before, are you joking", he said, the only reason I don't throw you out of the shop is because I want to practice my English, I thought, OK, that's a snappy answer, but guess what, I never went back there again, and warned everyone about this absolute moron, so If I averaged 1 movie per week, over 5 years, that's 250 rentals he missed out on for being stupid stubborn Berliner cnt..

I think communism affected their mental capabilities and they've passed it on to their children. F ing imbeciles.

I asked why they don't have a set day for having a vegan dish and was told, because we don't know which day we are going to make it. and on and o and on it goes. This is what they were used to in communist times and they don't think anything of it.
