    De afleveringen die heel erg op Nederland gecentreed zijn begrijp ik meestal niet (mis de context),

    Das habe ich auch mit shows von John Oliver wenn sie über Amerikanische sachen gehen. Aber dein Niederländisch is sehr gut, ganz toll.

    Supposedly he is a bit like Jan Bohnermann, haven’t checked that for myself but that might be a nice way to improve my German. Bohnermann even had a guest appearance in Lubach’s show last week. Lubach joked that Ulrich Siegmund (the leader of the Sachsen-Anhalt AfD) could be a bit by Bohnermann so Lubach calls him mid-show and they talk a bit about the AfD. Had to look it up on YouTube because I didn’t remember his name: https://youtu.be/PuEFQMXJTiM

      Thank you, dein Deutsch auch :) I ran my text through a spell checker though since my phone’s autocorrect hates Dutch and sabotages it and while my vocabulary is okay I’m never sure with the long vocals (double ee etc)

      Böhmermann is a bit special. He does music (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNjG22Gbo6U) and often starts elaborate undercover attacks (or pranks), exposes frauds and scandals and things like that. Not a typical late night show I’d say. He also got in trouble for his pretty vicious attacks on Erdogan. In general I like what he does but it’s quite intense!

      Thank you also for this link. I’m on vacation right now and didn’t watch too many German news lately. I was aware of the AfD win but I didn’t want to listen to any of their aggressive bullshit propaganda.

      Unfortunately a lot of people like them, even people I know (I live in NRW, right next to the Dutch border). It’s business people who don’t like taxes and bureaucracy, people scared of immigrants and poor uneducated people who think they’re not treated fairly by the government.

      It’s very hard to discuss with them. For some reason they always punch downward (immigrants or unemployed people) while they’re dissatisfied with the current government (which is in fact shit). It’s so clear that AfD won’t solve any of their problems. They are incompetent except for propaganda and their whole job, for which they get paid by billionaires, is to destabilize and weaken Europe and Germany.

      I hope we’re as resilient as you guys in NL and can handle some right wing parties and then get rid of them if they’re incompetent and won’t turn full Nazi again like in the past… We SHOULD know better
