"In social networks, anyone can anonymously say what they think and how they think. I find it regrettable."
-- Chancellor Merz (Today)
To be honest....you can stop any German on the street, or in a pub, or in a train....ask them what/how they think, and they will give you two minutes of blunt-chatter, and never once will you ask their name, address or political standing.
"Tacheles reden."
That's the German term....when the gal/guy has uttered something straightforward, blunt, and often pretty harsh. There's no sugarcoating, no beating around the bush, pure raw honesty.
