GREED

@flyindutch

You described my English as confusing. I found that insulting especially in light of the fact that you could recognize it as American. Do Germans appreciate people from Switzerland or Bayern criticizing their “Deutsch”? Of course not. More people natively speak my grammar than the English grammar you learned in school. I found it inappropriate for someone with numerous vocabulary errors to have such an opinion about my grammar.

It’s as I suspected, you are more German at heart as your moniker implies. Accordingly you are offended by an outsider who criticizes the place of your birth. Still, your replies get longer & contain fewer facts. You don’t have any counter evidence, only examples of others who commit the same social transgressions.

Wochenmarkt. You don’t address whether or not this concept is out-dated.

Old Woman. You don’t see that in other countries where older people assemble in public, they are happy. Germans are not known for being happy.

Socialist. Germans pride themselves on their social politics…without realizing the true nature of their politics…classism.

Abitur. My comments were actually directed at Abitur capable people who don’t get “voted into the club” by their 4th grade teacher. Anyone who finds there direction after they figure out there’s no Santa Claus is in bad shape.

Ladenschlußgesetz. Something that affects every single person in Germany is relevant to this discussion. Again, you refused to discuss my points.

Jew as an insult. So is your point that if you haven’t heard it or someone non-German does it also, it doesn’t matter. Tell that to someone working in a rape crisis center. I bet you haven’t witnessed any rapes today. Someone was raped in America today. Based on your logic the women who’ll be raped tonight in Berlin are to be ignored.

Jealousy. You countered my statement of pre-WW II jealousy of Jewish people & businesses by declaring
“Envineous is not a German phenomenon. Regarding the Jewish population the envy was all over the world. “

Typisch Deutsch. The point was that Germans don’t like being called that. They hate their own behavior, but do nothing to change. I was not honestly expecting you to end up in the hospital.

flyindutch you seem to have lost the point of this forum…it’s to share experiences about foreigners who reside in or would like to reside in Germany. I shared what I have observed. Unless I have said something materially non-factual, you should not have such objections to my posts. You are unhappy because I have “outted” Germany’s dark side. It’s not just sunshine, castles, & beer…unless you’re a tourist. I’m guessing you look German, act German, & even sound German…to OTHER Germans. That means that they don’t perceive you as an outsider or a threat. Your life is nothing like what most people reading this board have experienced. My daily life is a lot closer to reality for a non-German sounding, foreign-looking resident.

This forum is not about America, Brazil, or Iran or anything that happens in those countries or comparing them to Germany. It’s about life in Germany. There are a lot of things that I like about Germany & my life here. Everybody interested about living in Germany (as a foreigner) has a right to the cold hard facts. Anything other than the facts belongs in a verbal face-to-face discussion among friends or acquaintances. I own & accept my direct “black & white” nature. Shit stinks & fire burns.

MY SENTENCES IN CAPITAL LETTERS were to keep away the unemployed anti-American idiots for feeling like they have any place in this discussion. My attempt was to raise the IQ level of this discussion & bring it out of “one-liner” hell. My goals have been to inform & defend my statements. I have successfully done that. Don’t be like a bad politician & try to shine the light on someone else’s scandal to keep yours off the front page.

I respect you…just not enough to abandon the facts. I would (in the appropriate forum) state the facts about my County, Race, Church Denomination, Occupation, Hair, or about myself personally.

The offer to meet still stands.

Respectfully & Factually Yours,

RN
