I honesly feel like a jew living under nazi germany

i am sorry, but i am not sure if you know how ridiculous and hurtful this sounds for people who have witnessed the holocaust and their relatives.

you do not know how it feels to be a jew under naxi germany.

i do not doubt your suffering and oppression, but this is a bit insensitive in my perception and i think these are things we shouldn’t compare until there are comparable things happening.

anyway, yes, that sucks. i am sad that your government is like this in an authoritarian way and that everbody else is ok with everything.

i live in germany and to me telegram doesn’t feel niche at all.

a lot of younger people use it a bit like discord, like for group stuff. organizing (like e.g. political activism), finding apartents in berlin, and yes, getting drugs as well. also some worklplaces use it (which i think is terrible). it is also preferred by a lot of people to communicate via telegram over signal or whatsapp in situations where people don’t want to give away their number, like online dating.
