yes, germans hate being german, subconsciously (or have internalized liberal cosmopolitanism as the core of New Germanness - don't forget to be racist against Palestinians, who are the new Nazis)
My mom's hometown in Germany has 0 German flags (couldn't find a single one, and I think that's normal), meanwhile there were like 20 Ukrainian flags lmfao
Only time I ever liked Merkel is when I saw that video of her ripping the little German flag from her colleague’s hand and shook her head to scold him. That was great.
don't wanna continue talking about this. This was mostly tongue-in-cheek
no they love it, it's just being cosmopolitan well educated people is part of it so they really like to speak english. also most germans are turboboomers regardless of age who would never voluntarily enter english spaces because of it and therefore jump at any opportunity that presents itself to speak it
They hate englishers butchering their language
