Okay? First you used it as an example for a violent expression of disdain for German culture by migrants. Now you’re saying it was one of the catalysts for the shift of public perception of problems resulting from migration.

No apparent reference to my reply.

There are currently thousands of Christmas markets held in Germany every year (at least 3250, up to 7000). The rumors of the tradition dying out due to migration/terrorist attacks that were spread by right wing media don’t hold any water. They’re not going anywhere.

Offenbach am Main, which is the city with the highest share of immigrants in Germany (65%), holds a Christmas market every year. It is one of the markets with the longest duration in Hesse (November 17 - December 29 in 2025).

The attacker in Magdeburg was a mentally ill man, motivated by far right extremism. He claimed to be 'the most aggressive critic of Islam in history’ and was a staunch proponent of the AfD.

You’re asking me to suppose things about migrants and their effect on society and derive xenophobic viewpoints from that. But those are just made up scenarios based on preconceived notions. As made clear by the example you chose to illustrate your point, there’s not much substance to your claims in my opinion.

Could you elaborate on what constitutes the German cultural identity you mentioned?

No worries, the oat milk I produced was fantastic. So it was definitely worth it :) I look forward to experimenting with different towels

Oh man, for a moment it felt like this could actually lead to something bigger and better.

But the mere fact that it happened, to be surrounded by so many others who agreed that enough was enough was pretty powerful.

Thanks, I will look into that

Thank you, I’ll order some

I was so intrigued I tried your recipe right away. My kitchen towel immediately clogged and I had to wring the fluid out with considerable force. Do you have a workaround for that or recommendations for towels to use?
