      In Germany we say “der Klügere gibt nach” Which translates to “the wiser gives in” which is the reason why a dumb and loud minority is able to opress the majority now.

        there is no great silent majority being oppressed in Germany, the only people arguing this are the literal fascists over in the AFD

          The far left try to forcefully implement something called “gendern” into our language. It’s supposed to be a gender neutral speech if you speek about a person or multiple persons. (we already have gender neutral terms)

          About 74% of the population either rejects it completely or at least critizise it. There is a far left foundation (which is ironically paid by tax money) called “Amadeo Antonio Stiftung” which tries to influence the government to make it illegal that people don’t use their stupid terms.

          just for the lolz: the “Amadeo Antonio Stiftung” was founded by an ex-Stasi employee

          Edit: I do know what you are trying to do. I am not a supporter/voter of the AfD. I voted and will continue to vote for die PARTEI which is a left wing party :)

            (we already have gender-neutral terms) these gender-neutral terms are used to objectify something/someone, literally. And the attempt to remove gender when describing groups of people is for inclusivity, while I agree that many of the proposed solutions are silly, language is a living thing that does change with time, so we will see what actually gets adopted.

            as for Amadeo Antonio Stiftung, do you know what they actually do, or do you just repeat shit you hear on social media? even if they are a group of tankies, it’s not like anyone outside “die Linke” actually follows their demands, I would be more worried about the fact that seemingly all CDU appointed verfasungschutz heads keep strong ties to openly Neo-Nazi organizations

              We have the generic masculine which is considered gender neutral.

              For the AAS: you are talking alot of bullshit. The family ministery has a tight bond to the AAS and also provided the foundations with millions of tax money. Dunno if you are German yourself but the AAS got alot of attack lately because of their bullshit.

                Honest question. Why not use the actual neutral term?

                  it is the neutral one, at least in German.
