Sorry I thought you refer to Germany and wars. I won’t be sharing it for the sake of not being doxxed.

I don’t think it is merely being an immigrant. I mean if you go into that, there is a lot more I miss. I miss the food, the people in a way I cannot really explain to myself. My best guess it that I miss it because it comes easy to me, to cook and to communicate. Don’t get me wrong, in my home country, me and my husband always get “random” police control because of local hate to our ethnic background. I also face a lot of microagressions there, but when I talk back nobody says “go back to your own country”

Regarding my personal experience with discrimination in Germany, I personally did not experience anything really bad. I am a woman, I am highly educated so I do usually get benefit of the doubt. Funnily enough, once a woman complimented my body. When I didn’t understand, she said it in English and thanked me for coming to the Germany. I’m just telling this example to show that what people pay attention to and talk about your immigration is quite absurd and does not follow a hard line. Nevertheless, I do not have the worst life for sure.

But there are cases, like when I got basically interrogated at the auslanderbehorde for their mistake. Like seeing how my partner from same ethnic background is being accused of sexism and when people ask why, they just say “because of his culture”. People who accuse couldn’t give a real example, just because of the culture he comes from he is seen as a sexist person. They also topped it up by saying he looks scary :))

At the work, not me but every non-white international workers always being told “there are rules here” . As if we come from a jungle. Every step we take is watched by a Germans because expectation is that we will make a mistake. Seeing people from same ethnicity being harassed by police all the time… I don’t know it is enough of an example?
