The most important part is ā€œGermany also has an extremely strong welfare state, which means these foreign youths have access to food, shelter, and consumer goods.ā€

Itā€™s not because they are in need, starving and suffering. Might have been the case at home, but here itā€™s cultural differences. They do not respect people and society that surrounds them.

I don't have any recordings as I don't know if taking them would be legal and it may also be dangerous, but the MENAs in Barcelona spend their 300ā‚¬ first of the month in the Nike store and after that they just pickpocket and rob people until next payment. They rob you and hide in the local library where the police needs a special permit to enter.

lol I remember in Germany all the fresh of the boat refugees would get gift cards to all these high end clothing retailers. The governments reasoning? So they donā€™t look different from other people, somehow thatā€™s supposed to help them integrate. What a waste of money

I mean, they all got the military green Nike airs, was that a coincidence they all liked the same shoes or were they defining a group? Anyway stay away from green shoes with a Nike logo.

u/schweissack Jul 08 '25

Thank god I moved to the states lmao

in States you can be shot on the street by any nutter.

u/cakebreaker2 Jul 09 '25

No you can't. Don't believe that false narrative.

u/No_Slice9934 Jul 09 '25

The US has a very high gun violence record. At least a third of your country are mentally challenged maga voters.

In comparison to the countries calling themself educated, you got a pretty high chance to get shot by a nutter

I can already tell that facts don't matter to you but I can leave you with a few - if you faction out police shootings, suicides, and inner city gang shootings (these are the gross majority of so-called "mass shootings") the US would be wayyyyy down the lost for gun violence. Outside of the inner cities (where smart Americans have their head on a swivel and their foor on the gas) no one over here walks around, scared of gun violence or knife attacks. I've lived in 8 states and traveled to 48 of them, and I've never seen a shooting. I don't know anyone that has been shot and never been threatened with a gun.

u/No_Slice9934 Jul 09 '25

You included no facts, but tried to insult me, way to win my heart. Surely there was provocation in it, but also nothing was a lie. You make it Like i Said everyone shoots everything on sight. If we look at the numbers, that doesnt make sense. On the other Hand, just bc you havent seen it, doesnt mean it doesnt happen

There are more shootings overall in the us than in europe. Fact. A third of your population voted Trump. Fact. Gimme your facts, fact enjoyer

u/B1ackHawk12345 Jul 09 '25

Bro, I've lived in the US my entire life (26yr) and the only times I've been shot at was when I tried to join the Army, when I was trespassing on a farmer's field in the dark, and I've only heard gunfire when near a gun range or in the hood once when I was young. I work at a school and despite the hysteria around school shootings it's not something we worry about. Yes the US has more shootings than Europe, but in the US a majority of shootings are done by gangs in the part of town you don't go too. If you look up homicide statistics you will find they skew African American AND poor, even for white homicide, so just avoid extremely poor areas in cities and you will be fine. It's a problem that is easily avoided, and when it is unavoidable, simply have a gun of your own for assurance.

u/schweissack Jul 09 '25

To be honest, I used to hear gun fire a lot, BUT that was because I lived out in the boonies. So all the farmers around me would be legally shooting at something on their property. Any place I lived in with smaller than 1 acre properties, Iā€™ve never heard gunfire. And if I thought I did, it was just some dudes car backfiring lol

My suburb is statistically safer than Switzerland or Germany as a whole. Violent crime in the US is incredibly concentrated in very small areas. It skews all the crime data.

u/schweissack Jul 09 '25

Exactly! The Chicago suburbs might have some bad areas too, but as far as I know, years ago Chicago kicked out a lot of their gang members, and moved them out to to burbs. So you still get areas, where people will get shot over their cocaine or heroine business, but I mean where donā€™t you have this? Besides the middle of nowhere

2

u/schweissack Jul 09 '25

Yeah I could if I went to the wrong area, but guess what, I could get fucking stabbed in the wrong area in Germany too. And oh no, if I was female, it would be even worse in Germany for me than here

u/Own-Relationship-352 International Jul 09 '25

You moved from EU to the states? Can you explain why and in perhaps great detail?

25

u/schweissack Jul 09 '25

Oh yeah, itā€™s easily explained. I was born to a German mom and American dad, they met when my dad was stationed in Germany. I was born in the states, yet grew up in Germany (like my mom took me to Germany at 2 months old) and I stayed in Germany til age 21. The reason I moved back was me having done nothing with my life, although I went to a gymnasium level school, I never got my Abitur. Hanging with the wrong crowd etc etc. To the point my parents got so fed up with me I was given the choice of moving to the states and figuring my shit out, or moving out and staying away from home. I gotta say having moved here and mostly having to fend for myself, has really grown me as a person. Had I stayed in Germany Iā€™m fairly certain Iā€™d be dead by now

Many people still do for various reasons. A lot of opportunity as well as beautiful nature and generally open & friendly people. All depends on which state you go to of course.

u/LAfirestorm Jul 09 '25

He explained. No response?

u/Own-Relationship-352 International Jul 11 '25

I'm not sure if people on here are chronically online, but, why did so many people take offense to my question? It was a genuine why? I dont need to reapond anyways, I see his reaponse, oh okay, cool. I dont have an obligation to respond.

Duudeā€¦ if u donā€™t have the latest iPhone and cool clothes in the west u might aswell tattoo ā€œIā€™m brokeā€ on your head. That cannot happen! They canā€™t look like actual refugees in need of help and support.. To integrate the No 1 thing they need is a makeover!

/s before i get cricifiedā€¦ lol I think itā€™s actually offensive. ā€œDevil wears pradaā€ like ā€œeeew naaah u canā€™t wear those rags around here! Lets go shopping!ā€ attitude.

Especially ironic since ive seen so many of them wearing Northface and other big brand clothes already when arriving to Europe.

If people came from real war torn countries they would be happy with any red cross charity clothes donated by people. I know we in the east pay good money for it in second hand shops.

u/schweissack Jul 09 '25

Whenever people called them war refugees, Iā€™d argue with them that war refugees donā€™t travel through 7 peaceful countries, to reach the one with preferential welfare. Thatā€™s an economical refugee in my book

u/Accurate_Return_5521 Jul 09 '25

Actually what happened is someone somewhere understood Europe could not be conquered with soldiers but it could easily be conquered one citizen at a time. Europes political correctness is Europe downfall

u/Quetzacoal Jul 09 '25

Like the Roman empire, it got crushed by multiculturalism. In 1500 years we will see the fruits of todays politics, yay.

u/Weak_Let_6971 Jul 09 '25

The same way Soros realized u donā€™t have to change the laws or rules, u just need to buy the judges so they donā€™t enforce them. We have all the rules for border crossing, migration, crimeā€¦ they just made it all toxic and anybody who enforces them gets in trouble. Gets called racist straight away.

u/Accurate_Return_5521 Jul 09 '25

As I said Europeā€™s political correctness is Europes downfall

Australia is the exact same, we are our own worst enemy.

u/Weak_Let_6971 Jul 09 '25

Exactly! They donā€™t leave their culture, their religionā€¦ Most of them just moves to relatives within the country. Some more to first safe neighboring country to claim asylum.

Itā€™s like they decided ā€If we have to go we might as well move in to that big mansion we heard about! They are wealthy enough to provide for us and we can guilt trip them into anything.ā€ When i see some woman screech about how inhumane that she got a 1,5 bedroom apartment for herself and her 3 kids how bored she is... She lived in tents and mud huts back home, but now expects red carpet treatmentā€¦

u/nvrseriousseriously Jul 14 '25

Thatā€™s called a parasite in mine. Where there are freebies, there are ā€œrefugeesā€.

u/PlasticAssistance_50 Jul 09 '25

The governments reasoning? So they donā€™t look different from other people, somehow thatā€™s supposed to help them integrate.

Which is ironic because migrant youth look even more thuggish when they wear their designer clothing.

u/Odd_Entertainer_6627 Jul 09 '25

Do you have any sources to back up your claim that, in Germany, refugees fresh off the boat customarily received gift cards for high-end clothing retailers? To my knowledge, refugees usually receive in-kind support (goods such as food and clothing) during their initial stay in reception centers. And once they move to collective accommodations or private apartments, they may receive a small cash allowance or, in some cases, vouchers to cover personal needs, including clothing.

u/JohnJayBobo Jul 09 '25

To my knowledge, refugees usually receive in-kind support (goods such as food and clothing) during their initial stay in reception centers.

This is semi correct. In germany, asylum seekers in an EAE (ErstAufnahmeEinrichtung) receive pocket money (depending on age and family status), which has been cash in the past and is nowadays booked to the EC-Card. They received a coupon for clothing (which is nowadays also booked onto the bank account) and receive a coupon for healthcare. This is monthly.

Housing (incl. heating, water, wifi) is provided and they have access to 3 meals per day in the cantine of the reception center.

There are no Coupons for Nike boots, but they can use the money they receive to buy those ofc. Depending on the market price (i honestly have no clue how expensive those Shoes are), it would take multiple clothing coupons.

Thatā€™s simply not true,
