    Numbers at all time high but could be just due to more reports. We don’t know yet.

      We received a report for Racism, but we are not removing this comment as such to encourage discussion… a way more efficient way to fight propaganda and bigotry. Please keep it civil.

      Unfortunately, many people believe that immigrants are the ones driving criminality (e.g. knife attacks) yet the reality is that there are as many knife attacks done by Germans. Only media (e.g. Bild) are amplifying and showing a distorted view on society because of political interests. For example, the last attack was done by a german person and instead of being labeled as terrorist they called it a person with psicological problems :/

      Cheers, anzo

      There is no increased immigration in Germany. Immigration numbers have actually decreased.

      I wonder how it’s related to the increased number of boomers going into retirement.

      I wonder how it’s related to more Germans voting for Alice Weidel.

      I wonder how it’s related to the increased late and cancellation rate of train transport.
