Smirr posted:But I don't think anyone needs to move away from Germany because of this election just yet anyway. Our collective Merkel boner is starting to get a little frightening, but if you've been able to live here these past 8 years, I think you'll be fine. Just wait until it comes out that Merkel has been plagiarizing her pantsuits or something, I don't know. Short of Merkel removing her face like a mask and revealing she was Hitler all along, I don't think there's anything that would make her go anywhere for the foreseeable future.

weavernaut posted:How religious is Germany, anyway? Is it like Ireland, where nobody actually gives a poo poo but religion is all up in politics or is it actually more like the USA, where people do give a poo poo about whether or not you're Christian? It never stops being really really weird to me when I say hi to someone and they reply with Grüss Gott.

Hey GaussianCopula, what's the % of murders committed by Nazis in cases where the victim is non-white and the perpetrator isn't immediately obvious (like say, a crime of passion with no attempt to hide it or w/e). Being specific like this is the only way your numbers aren't totally bullshit. Is the number high enough yet that dismissing it as a possibility is dumb yet? Methodical my rear end.

Just a note that talking about grade levels when comparing across countries might well be very misleading. Dutch third grade means 6 year olds, for instance, whereas I believe in Germany that'd be 8 year olds?

Libluini posted:Extraditing your own citizens without asking why isn't a principle, though. It's not like I'm saying all criminals should be protected if they've comitted crimes outside their home nations borders, since that's unimaginable stupid. But with the many, many not really nice states out there we shouldn't immediately go "OK valued ally, here have this guy who changed his citizenship to ours recently. gently caress our laws, I guess. Torture him extra hard for making us look bad." I agree with you.

While it is cool and good that Germany still has trade apprenticeships worth a drat (whereas most countries really, really dont) and things like that, education is a worthy pursuit in its own right and certainly access to academia should not be determined by who your parents are, what they do for a living or how much money they make.
