        maybe even certainly healthier.

        Fixed that for you. Anything is healthier than American “food”. Even British foods, possibly.

          As an American, British food is healthier, yes. Most of the time I’m eating import food because of how gross American products are.

        It’s hard to make out but this all looks like (very dry) buiscuits. If they’re really Turkish I can’t recommend them (at least not without chai and you want sugar with that, so not really very healthy).

    Pretty ironic, considering that Turkey under Erdogan is just as close to dictatorship as the US under Trump…

      There is a huge Turkish population in Germany, that seems to be the most probable reason.

    What is it called when you’re actually proud of seeing your country exposed as the tyrannical monster you’ve always known it to be, are happy to see other nations no longer kissing its ass, and desire nothing more than for the rulers of the nation to fall and suffer as you have?

    It’s this weird Reverse Patriotism I’m filled with

          The funny thing about german is you can make new compound words to describe something. It could be a bit nonsensical without context but it should translate roughly to “homeland-retribution-pride”.

      It’s called being an anti imperialist that lives in the imperial core. Next start listening to some Michael Parenti. Sadly it’s taken the US directing it’s imperialism at western countries to wake up to it. But better late than never.

        Happiness at the misfortune of others? No… not really. I’m not happy that other people are suffering, I’m happy that people have accurately identified the source of their suffering.
