What really matters

Can we stop talking about THE REFUGEES? Honestly, I can not hear it anymore. This discussion about "THE REFUGEES", where every German non-refugee thinks he must give his mustard.

Apart from the fact that it is alone mega sad to constantly have to point out how incredibly antisocial this hate is on "the refugees". For months, it has been debated in numerous Facebook comments about whether "the refugees" are now "good" or "bad", "thankful" or "not grateful", "misbehave" or "why they even have cell phones".

How presumptuous is it in such a discussion to sum up thousands of people with different destinies, origins and lives with the term "refugee"? NO ONE who has not experienced it himself or has been there can even begin to understand how these people really feel. It's damn people and I'm currently shit, whether they are "good" or "bad" for us, but rather the question: "How can one make these people a NORMAL LIFE in Germany?" Each of us is just as DIFFERENT as the people who come to us.

It's just fucking shit that we've been discussing refugees and "hatred" for months, seemingly forgetting what it's really all about. I would like to CONTINUE THIS painstaking discussion, as one would otherwise do if one feels that one is spinning in a circle. Stop talking about the "pros / cons" of people and start talking about the "HOW". Honestly, I am also totally overwhelmed with the topic itself and SUPERVISION is probably really the main problem with the whole topic. Of course we have to offer the Facebook-trolling refugee opponent "parole", but we should not let these people rob TIME. We simply do not have the time to deal with the problems of those we can really help with: "the refugees" ... and NOT the refugee opponents (you can not help them!).

So please stop talking about THE REFUGEES and let's finally talk about PEOPLE and how we can provide them with an adequate place in our society.
