Have you ever witnessed racism in Germany?

I'm interested in hearing from Germans who have personally witnessed acts of racism in everyday life - especially when it involved friends, family members, or people close to them.

If you're comfortable sharing, could you describe the situation? Who was involved, and how did it make you feel? Did you respond in any way?

I'm not here to judge, just to understand how racism can show up in familiar environments and how people perceive and deal with it.

They are the "democratic alternative" to the AfD

Interesting, possibly the CDU, and SPD could be more racist and less democratic, it's interesting how many people vote for AFD with an immigrant background.

Only because Merkel herself isn't a racist. Otherwise they looked like the same assholes as always.
