Why scare quotes? I lived in DĂŒsseldorf back in '90 (go alts - that was the name of my school team, and yes it was sponsored by Alt bier đș... different times), it's always been one of Germany's more clean cut, upmarket cities, but this picture makes me want to go back and check it out again.
Then again, I'm a queer transfem and I'm in BERLIN, THE QUEER CAPITAL OF THE WORLD. DĂŒsseldorf is in the last instance just meh.
Really bugs me too. It's vulgar and mean-spirited. I say this as a transfem who is an explicit target of discriminatory republican policies.
Making fun of someone because they're old is unacceptable. That's civility 101, if you claim to be a democrat and do this kind of thing you're a fraud imho
In trans nerds we trust :)
