It’s the official language because there are 31 different languages spoken in the country and they need something to be lingua franca so why not make it English for added international appeal. India is similar

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If americans come to germany and act like german public Transport is the best, how frickin bad is american public Transport?
3·6 months agoOk yeah DB has been woefully underfunded for decades thanks to auto industry lobbying and so now half the trains are late or cancelled, but the fact that you even can get from any city to any other city by train and then get to anywhere within each city by bus/tram is mind blowing to some of us that didn’t grow up in Europe. There are lots of places where you basically can’t live without a car, it’s insane.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL the pound was named because 240 Sterlings (pennies) weighed a pound.English
1·6 months agoThe only prime factor that 240 has which 10 doesn’t is 3, so using 240 only really helps for multiples of 3

Europe@feddit.org•I landed a remote job for a European company, and now I'd find it hard to go back to a US-based company — I feel spoiled by the perksEnglish
2·7 months agoThanks, you said what I wanted to say but better. Let’s not forget that CDU have been in power for the majority of the time for decades, and Germany is far left of the USA despite Democrats being in power for roughly half that same time. So the proof is in the pudding, so to speak

1·7 months agoGerman people are just generally not very open to talking to strangers in general, so making friends with them takes a while. But there are so many expats here that you can easily make friends with instead so it’s not bad really

1·7 months agoI’ve lived in both Germany and the USA (very blue state) and strongly disagree with this. It’s incredibly easy and cheap to immigrate to Germany and you get the same rights as any European, in the USA you have to jump through a million hoops and constantly fight for the right to stay, you can get ejected so easily

2·7 months agoI think it’s actually pretty debatable. Merz is left of Biden on some big issues, like being in favour of universal health care, and supporting unions and workers rights. One could argue that Biden is left of Merz on immigration and climate action but Germany is soooo far left of the USA there and so both of them are just pushing back towards a mid point, I very much doubt a USA under Biden would ever catch up to a Germany under Merz on those issues

16·7 months agoThe funny thing is that if you live in Europe and work for a US company, you also get the European perks. I really don’t understand why more Americans don’t move here

142·7 months agoWtf are you on about? There are a handful of hard right govts in Europe currently, but the majority of Europe is not, in fact by US standards you’d probably consider most parties here left wing (the US Democrats would be considered a right wing party here lol)
Immigration is also quite easy for an American, definitely easier than if you’re from the middle-east. If you’re capable of getting a qualified/skilled job or studying you can generally stay as long as you want in most places, and native English speakers are in demand.
Tell me you’re american without telling me you’re american
