  1. Messaging like this, where you essentially tell half your population that the other half are a threat until proven otherwise, is civilizational suicide

  2. Actually he quipped that women should better not enter in a relationship with men, due to high amount of physical and psychological risk involved. But he also admitted that this was an exaggeration because the majority of men were not violent or criminals.

    The article says that violent sexual assault increased by 8.5%. Which is a lot. German men seem to be more prone to violence against women in the last 10-15 years. What happened? it must be Andrew Tate influence.

    Y’all are quick to forget what happened in Köln Bhf Nye in 2015 soon after the invasion

  5. All I’m gonna say is that shit like this is not helping young men become more sympathetic to liberal causes and is in fact doing the complete opposite. It’s an objective, studied fact that has real world consequences, but people would rather cope about how it’s just every young guy being awful instead of admitting that there may be a severe disillusionment problem in leftist spaces.

  6. Reminds me of the Louis CK bit where he joked that men are the number one threat to women.

  7. “My statement was obviously an exaggeration. It was not meant as advice to be taken literally,” he said. “The overwhelming majority of men are not violent and are not criminals.”

    But never let that stop clickbait

  8. What’s changed in the last 5-10 years? Can we say it out loud? Can we speak the truth?

  9. Old media really are the original ragebaiters with shit like this. Trying to breed hate and have people (especially younger impressionable people) assume the worst in all your countrymen and strangers will surely lead to good things😃👍. Other people have said it before and surface level thinking goobers always argue back, but imagine if this was anything else than gender. Replace men with African immigrants and the complete opposite political parties would put up shitty articles like this, and that are statistically true as well. It’s disgusting. If the police and thereby the government wanted change they should focus more on what people get fed off of social media, education and not being soft against certain cultural norms that shouldn’t exist in Europe of 2026. Let’s try to ease the tension between groups and in this case the genders, we shouldn’t follow South-Korea in this and see the same results.

    I say we divide Germany into East and West to separate the sexes. With a zone in the middle for mating only.

    The cost of living is increasing, real estate price is increasing, people are getting increasingly isolated and alienated, raising a family is objectively way more difficult nowadays than it was for our parents and grandparents, retirement age is on the rise, wages are stagnating across Western Europe and in Italy and Greece have even shrinked in the last decades, climate change is accelerating and political stability across the world is dwindling.

    Can we at least stop it with the gender wars?

  12. That piece of advice is so incomplete it’s almost pointless. They have to narrow it down more by adding more characteristics than simple sex, such as… age… such as…

  13. When this is what the police declares, dont ask yourself why Far Right is winning in your country. Just dont.

    Okay so by this logic ukraine should not send soldiers to the frontlines because there is a high risk of death.

    Got it.

  15. The fact that this can be said with applause is why we are dealing a gender split when it comes to politics.

    I don’t know about Germany, but in Hungary (according to statistics) at least one woman dies every week at her partner’s hands. And the real numbers are much bigger.

    So yes, here a woman is definitely safer without a man in her life.

  18. Alice_J_Capistrant on

    Separating men and women on the basis that men are statistically more likely to harm women than they are other men and women men and other women is extremely problematic – as it suggests that merely being more likely, as an individual member of an aggregated group with a given characteristic, justifies separation, which could be extended to racial arguments. 

  19. ~110 women die to partners in Germany every year.

    ~700 women die to car accidents in Germany every year.

    If you want women to be safe, tell them to stay away from cars.

    Actually don’t leave home, probably. Why is that not the recommendation?

    I’m a leftie, and I think this is shit advice.

  20. Always women that have to do things to stay safe from men, never men being told not to be creeps…

    Just all men? Lmao what an irresponsible thing to say. Germany, bringing men & women together

  22. “We should stop teaching women self-defense, and instead we should start teaching men self-control”.

  23. Guys, I think this got thrown out of proportion. I heard the speech and it did not come across as “all men are equally bad” or “all women should hate men”. Let’s calm down.

    You know what, If the German police is this incompetent the German government can give me a call any time. Even i a random reditor will be less embarrasing that this. Maybe it is just this one police association chief? Fire this guy. I am not even German and i am feeling second hand embarrasement from the other side of Europe.

    I guess the overlap of people who are upset by his comment and also vote for the far-right to get rid of criminal immigrants is very high. Funny.
