Für mich als Muslim & Migrant ist es zwar cool, dass es nun eine Ausländerpartei gibt, aber ich hab wenig Bock auf eine muslimische CDU. Und „Protestwählen“ gibt mir auch keine guten Assoziationen.

Wüsste ich es nicht besser, wäre diese Art der Berichterstattung für mich aber fast schon ein Grund, die trotzdem zu wählen. Ich hab jetzt keine Zeit und keinen Bock das im Detail alles auszuarbeiten.

Aber das Programm bedient halt einige Ausländerthemen, Dinge die für Millionen in diesem Land wichtig sind. Und die Tagesschau muss daraus erstmal einen „was haben diese Muselmanen nun vor?“ Artikel machen, wo alle gängigen Vorurteile über DEN muslimischen Migranten bedient werden. Es gibt durchaus Dinge zu hinterfragen und nur, weil es viele Muslime gibt, heißt das nicht, dass wir die Vision dieser Leute teilen.

Wie gesagt, keinen Bock auf konservativen Bullshit von keiner Seite und auch keinen Bock, dass die DITIB mir erzählt, wie ich zu leben habe. Aber da wird nicht jeder so reflektiert sein und viele werden mMn dann doch „jetzt erst recht“ denken und sowas dann doch wählen. Einfach weil sonst keiner einem das Gefühl gibt, endlich mal gehört zu werden.

Your question is cynical at best, but probably a sad attempt at derailing the discussion. Instead of talking about the well documented systemic torture of Palestinians you want us to discuss the technicality of whether it’s possible or not to lose x KG in Y days. Let’s say it’s only possible to lose x-1KG in Y days. It won’t change anything about the fact that there are ten thousands of Palestinians who have been detained & tortured by an ethno nationalist settler colony that is currently genociding Palestinians.

There are many reports of torture. Starvation is one of the more harmless things they’d do to you. Here’s a detailed account dating back to the 70s: https://www.un.org/unispal/document/auto-insert-187447/

There’s also a whole Wikipedia article on the history of torture that Palestinians have experienced. This article is easy to find.

There’s also a detailed report on this by Amnesty International. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2023/11/israel-opt-horrifying-cases-of-torture-and-degrading-treatment-of-palestinian-detainees-amid-spike-in-arbitrary-arrests/

I find it very cynical to question such a well documented, systemic abuse that has been going on for decades. You can easily find before/after pictures of Palestinian detainees. There’s really no need to make up or exaggerate anything when reality „does the job“ well enough.

Das finde ich einen sehr guten und scharfsinnigen Artikel. Als genau jemand, dessen Vorfahren auch nichts mit dem 3. Reich zutun hatten, habe ich ähnliche Erfahrungen gemacht. Egal was schiefläuft, immer gibt man uns die Arschkarte. Kann ja unmöglich sein, dass der gute, echte Deutsche jemals was falsch machen könnte.

Look I’m all for bringing people together and if you ask me, there should be no borders and nations should just exist for administrative purposes. But that doesn’t mean that e.g. an Arab in Egypt would self-identify as European.

Regarding racism: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fiOJ6lrX0zY this was more than 10 years ago, it got only worse till then. Ethiopian Jews are at the bottom of society, many of them live in the slums of Tel Aviv. They serve a purpose, that is making sure Palestinians don’t outnumber Israeli Jews. Also doing shitty jobs that no one else wants to do & that pay barely enough to survive.

Israel is made by and for Ashkenazi Jews. Just look e.g. at the list of prime ministers to confirm that. I get your point though, we may call it as well Ashkenazi supremacist for that matter. But even if Palestinians were gone, black Jews would be next in line.

Indeed! Maybe I’m the bot

Is this some bot hallucinating? Israel is a white supremacist settler colony founded by Europeans. Maybe colonialism is essentially European, but I’d like to believe we moved past that.

Apart from that, most of Turkey and the entire Levant are in Asia. Other Mediterranean countries are in North Africa. Tell me who in their right mind would say that Syria or Egypt are essentially European?

Finally, there is no language called ‘Semitic‘, it is a language family. No Semitic language is an official EU language. The EU doesn’t even have anything to do with Eurovision.

Western values like what? Is that why we’re genociding Palestinians in Gaza, and now starving & freezing them to death through cutting the funding for UNRWA?

Please explain to me what you mean by western values and why you think we’re upholding them.

Very hot take. Our media narrative and political communication are incredibly biased towards the Israeli take, we have 100,000s of Palestinian citizens and millions of Muslim citizens whose voices we ignore. We actively cancel funding for peace activists and silence even Jewish Israelis who are anti-Zionist. We still deliver weapons to Israel and now also deny funding for innocent civilians starving & freezing to death. Germany is not only complicit, Germany and other western countries are actively enabling this genocide and it sickens me.

Weird, my experience in Hungary was the opposite. No one nude and I think people would have been really weirded out. This was my experience from several thermal baths in the country, although always mixed gender. Maybe if there’s single gender days it may be different.

Exactly

Not Amazon but some other not so well known place like that yeah.

Good to know! I worked in finance & consulting before and have never really seen it there or heard of it. Maybe I got lucky with the areas I was working in.

Thanks a lot for the thoughtful comment. I did what you said and submitted the PC version via Slack and Workday and offered to provide additional input if needed via voice call but they said it’s not necessary.

So I’m sticking to the official version. No idea what’s gonna happen with the PIP, I wasn’t affected by the last round of layoffs but maybe it’s gonna happen now during performance review.

I also hate the office politics, but learned a lot about it from being PIPed and likely (?) surviving it.

I kind of thought the same so I tried to be as objective as possible and submitted the feedback

Thanks for the idea, I’ve actually done that to make sure everything is as PC as possible and formulated in a positive way and decide to submit the feedback.

This. Some tech company bs. The measures compiled into it are often vague or impossible to achieve. Mostly it’s a tool to create a paper trail for firing you. They will say that you didn’t manage to achieve the goals of the plan, hence you’re fired. Sometimes people survive it. Sometimes it’s also genuinely meant to help improve your performance. One could argue that if you have a good feedback loop with your manager it won’t ever get this far, so mostly this tool is just used to get rid of unwanted people. Some companies have a quota of people to be put into this, e.g. Amazon.

It‘s the skip level of my former manager who’s reaching out now, but otherwise correct. Yeah my concern is about confidentiality and possible retaliation. Like it would be helpful to share the feedback but not at my own expense. So I guess I’m trying to weigh the risks here.
