Whatsup, Norway? You are late too! When I arrived as a sailor in Norway you guys were an half hour too late to rope our ship to the pier. > 35% of Deutsche Bahn trains runs late > Shut down all nuclear powerplants in favor of fossil gas "green energy" > It is forbidden to spend the night on your summer cottages True. >summer cottages propably means Lauben aka Kleingarten Yes, they rely on a special law. Long history etc. and are bound to fulfill requirements, such as 50 % has to be vegetables, 50 % can be other things like flowers, etc. No permanent housing allowed Those bounds are because of the cheap renting. You pay a laughable qm² rent for a summer house. But I know some people which have an offical adress for receiving post but are living permanently in their summer house. Not every German is a law-obeying zombie. > It is forbidden to store anything in the garage except cars Wut? Explain further pls. I've never heard of this. > It is forbidden to work on Sundays Depends on your federal land. In Berlin for example there are many so called "Spätis" which are 24/7 opened, on Sundays too. Gas-stations are opened I guess in every federal land too, where you can buy (overpriced tho) cigarettes, food, alcohol, etc. 24/7 Bavaria and other southern lands are harsh tho regarding work on sundays. I don't know about the exact conditions there. > Tax laws are horrible clusterfuck Yes, it was before digitalization. Now there is an state provided application for making your taxes. Even my boomer dad, who uses his laptop only for watching movies or porn, can handle it. > If you kill a wasp, you will be fined 500 euros Wasps are important for the environment. But I've never heard that this fine was applied to someone. In the germany I guess laws are set up, never applied, because who the fuck will watch you killing a wasp? But people obey these laws, because it is law. > Worst canchellor run country for 16 years > Government organizes paid rallies against right wing party True > But somehow 1st economy of EU Are we still? But economy declined here. That's what I read the last years.

>>86 > Whatsup, Norway Jokes on you. I use vpn, because retarded government of Snow Nigeria blocked half of net to protect kids from harmful information and west LGTV+ propaganda. Tbh I don't hate Germans as nation, I guess most of you are cool, I just don't understand how such incompetent gov't doen't ruin your country, like Soviets and Putin does to Russia.

Germany is pretty fucked up rn, not enough housing for normal people but plenty of space for more migrants

> 35% of Deutsche Bahn trains runs late Still better than most of Europe

more?

>>124 The first pic looks like AI. Bernd would do the 3rd pic.

>>89 >I just don't understand how such incompetent gov't doen't ruin your country Because we are that good even after 80 years of occupation and hostile social engineering. The Teutonic Spirit is eternal.

>>86 >Wut? Explain further pls. I've never heard of this. https://www.bussgeldkatalog.org/garagennutzung/

We are a car nation, only neekeris and neets use public transport. Also we are a socialist nation so 1) run by retards 2) the retards are also directly in charge of german railways.

>>341 Bernd is Neet. Bernd uses public transport. Bernd doesn't get much money from state. Has to get money from black works because state money doesn't pay anything. Where is my socialist state who pays me anything. Why even live ;_;

>>85 > Government organizes paid rallies against right wing party Fuck off, Telegramfag. You pathetic non-German wannabe fascists. >shut down all nuclear powerplants None of your business, you dont fucking live here. >forbidden to store anything in the garage We don't need additional storage in our superior houses. >its forbidden to work on Sundays Because we're still Christfags, not completely cucked. >Tax laws are a horrible clusterfuck. Just let the system work for you. Everyone ride the Steuerkarussel. >you kill a wasp, you will be fined 500 Euros Why are you calling the cops to watch you kill a wasp? Also yes they are protected animals, I mean, you are basically cavemen like Canadians so you surely have laws for that too. >worst cancellor run country for 16 years Thanks to that cancellor, even scum like you COULD have visited us whenever you wanted. Thanks to that cancellor, noone checked in on the internet and fought fake news or propaganda, so you, Trump and Putin should collectively kiss her ass for her incompetence. Also I'm sure it wasn't 16, do your homework. >somehow 1st economy of EU Which I will never understand, we're a lazy shitty country full of idiots and parasites, who are always 5 years behind and won't innovate. Also our own immigrants vote for the party that wants to gas them or support their country to be destroyed. Without export, we'd be fucking third world, and China will defeat us in export. Find some real complaints about Germany. Like how all employers whine about not getting qualified workers, while they: >use AI scans to automatically decline your application, noone knows what the AIs look for >lie in their job descriptions >want to hire immigrants because noone wants to work for their shitty payments >but the immigrants can't work here since German bureaucracy puts ridiculous obstacles in their way >are run by absolutely incompetent bosses who get broke after 3 years, and dont want to hear any suggestions by their employees

>>343 Merkel and Kohl where both 16 years in amt. Merkel: Bundeskanzlerin (2005–2021) Kohl: Bundeskanzler (1982-1998)

>>344 Calling Kohl the worst cancellor is wild. But Eastbernds are right, I want the wall back, too. Twice as high, twice as deadly.

>>345 The Wall is now inside peoples' heads.

>>345 >Calling Kohl the worst cancellor is wild. He literally is responsible for Germany abolishing the D-Mark and for joining/establishing the EU.

>>343 >Thanks to that cancellor, even scum like you COULD have visited us whenever you wanted. Thanks to that cancellor, noone checked in on the internet and fought fake news or propaganda, >so you, Trump and Putin should collectively kiss her ass for her incompetence. Also I'm sure it wasn't 16, do your homework. I'm confuse, You're disagreeing with assesement that Merkel was the worst chancellor ever, and also all the things you blame on her - in much the same way american blames contemporary leader for price of hamburger - are bad, but also it's something to be grateful for. So that means you like her! >None of your business, you dont fucking live here. It is everyone's fucking business when they not only shut down their power plants but heavily promote the policies on it's neighbors and impose them on their subordinates. Germany could've led the industry in mass producing reliable reactors that people trust, instead it mocks about with clean, green natural gas(TM). Not that norway has any grounds to complain about that, they did fund their nanny state and "clean" energy policies by selling oil to south america. >>359 Again, is cementing the so-coveted dominance of europe that your kind committed political suicide twice over not a good thing?

>>360 >is cementing the so-coveted dominance of europe that your kind committed political suicide twice over not a good thing? Germany doesn't rule Europe, the USA do. And they created the EU to weaken Germany, not strengthen it.

>>366 Being vassalized doesn't prevent you from having vassals of your own.

>>376 Still Germany has no vassals and is bled dry by all its EU neighbours.

>But somehow 1st economy of EU Maybe there's sth wrong with ur thinking.

I love looking down on Germany and its notoriously shitty trains, but honestly, it's the best in class. And yes, that includes Switzerland. Our trains are slow as fuck and we invest 4 times as much per capita. Sure, tunnels are expensive, but if Germany had the same throughput and slow speeds as Switzerland, it would run a lot smoother.

>>418 Why is it that people that have the best, easiest lives always need to insist to others they're the actual victims, often, of their own excesses.

>>426 >best, easiest lives You should read the OP again.

>>426 >white supremacists in America are hispanics or black >nazi party voters in Germany are from the Middle East You know, as a more left-leaning Bernd this is extremely confusing, because now I have to be for letting them in but against letting them stay. In fact, we're at a point where leftist and fascists could cooperate with equal goals but different motivation behind it. Politics is dumb. Its time to just give a shit about yourselves Bernds and watch the world burn.

>>482 >I have to be You don't have to let feelings of affiliation dictate your behaviour. You are free to discern and decide for yourself.

>>482 I mean, what do germans mean by left-leaning? I know when usonians say "left leaning" they mean they're indistinguishable from fascists on every real macrosocial policy but they have a few superficial pet issues where they disagree, like Turing vollständig people. like >>487 says, you should think more by yourself and also treat other people more as individuals.

>>488 >you should think more by yourself Yes. >and also treat other people more as individuals. Hell no! That's not what I implied. Most people are mindless cattle and the biggest mistake I made in my life was taking them seriously. t.>>487

>>488 >I mean, what do germans mean by left-leaning? I know when usonians say "left leaning" they mean they're indistinguishable from fascists retard alert!

>>489 And how do you know you are not a people? True, most people ARE mindless cattle. But if you don't think any individual person is fundamentally capable of emancipating from the herd given the right circumstances, then what do you mean saying that you're a leftist? >>490 no u

>>492 >as a more left-leaning Bernd <are you a fascist? To give you a kind of Central European view. Very left-leaning: >the workers should own the means of production Kinda left-leaning: >a full-time job should pay a living wage Neither has anything to do with fascism

>>493 Yes those are literally the superficial pet issues that I alluded to. Usonian "leftists" don't really want a shift in the ownership of the means of production, they just want "living" wages enforced by state and "free" healthcare where the state foots the hyper inflated bill that the pharmaceutical companies create. This is "kinda" left leaning, in the sense that it is not actually left leaning at all, just less to the right than, say, chattel slavery. This is not a change to the system, it's alleviating social tensions to guarantee it's continued perpetration. In terms of actual ideals that have everything to do with fascism: the Usonian "leftist" believes just as much in police, the rule of law, the existence of prisons and capital punishment, the inherent value of "beauty" and "normalcy", in deeply puritan moral values to define said concepts... as much as any proud boy member, maybe even more at times. They just disagree on who or when the boot gets dropped on; they may say they don't want the police, what they really mean is either they want a police that's divided into different sub-domains of the current labors of police, or they want a "woke" lynch mob to kill anyone their teletubbie panopticon deems unpleasant enough, just don't call it police. Also yes, a lot of characteristics of capitalism -that these leftists don't criticize- are either conductive to or dependent on fascist policies. And that includes your central European governments. Just because your compass is less skewed than that of the Usonians doesn't mean it's not skewed at all, or that objective truth lies in the middle. "leftist" is a word that doesn't mean anything anymore (if ever). People who say they are leftists don't really believe in anything with certainty. They just use the term as an abstraction that makes them feel smart.

>>494 Too long; didn't read

>>492 >And how do you know you are not a people? By comparing my actions and opinions with other humans. They usually differ quite a lot. >But if you don't think any individual person is fundamentally capable of emancipating from the herd given the right circumstances, then what do you mean saying that you're a leftist? I am not, >>482 is another Bernd.

>>494 Paragraphs, do you know them?! You probably make some interesting points but I am not reading that unsorted mess.

Let's not pretend nearly everything OP wrote isn't true for all Western countries now. I went to Switzerland last week and all trains I took were late, old and dirty. It's over. There's only decline.
