Yeah tbh I went full contrarian with that comment don’t take it too seriously 😅 apologies for being so confrontational. Kudos for working on your issues!
It’s astonishing what kind of annoying asocial behavior people sometimes show while being absolutely unaware! We are all caught in our own stories sometimes and don’t always have good awareness of our sourrounding. The way you describe the situation it sounds like yes, they should be aware that they are loud, but it’s still very likely that they just aren’t! We’ve all been there!
Did you already tell them there is a problem with the floor dampening and you hear every step very loudly? Surely you would not just expect them to know that they are not supposed to walk around in their own apartment and instead of talking to them tell everyone on the internet how bad they are? Because that would be pathetic.
Your source kinda says the opposite of what your title says. Different name, was arrested this time for raping a kid, not sentenced for death but committed suicide and even showing that while “sodomy” was illegal you would not get the death penalty for it.
The government is forcing the people to pay for the public broadcasting. That’s why they are inherently dependant on the government. Something that’s literally funded by the government can not be independent from the government.
I’m living in Germany actually. Don’t get me wrong, I like the ÖRR as alternative to private media. But to say it’s independent from the government is really naive.
