Slavery in the United States, the US Civil War, Martin Luther King Jr.,
Black Lives Matter, All Lives Matter - these are part of your cultural
background that can explain how you think about these things.
Starting and losing two world wars, the holocaust, Germany being divided
after the second world war, people living in non-free societies
1933-1945 and in East Germany then until 1990 - these are part of the
German cultural background and can explain how we Germans think about
things.
In this gay pride month discussion what is politically correct for
people in the US is considered offensive by people in Germany, and
what would be considered politically correct by Germans would be
considered offensive by people in the US.
This is the root cause of disagreement in this discussion.
And it is not correct if we are asked to learn about your history
and cultural background just for being allowed to discuss that we
consider something offensive.
Diversity in a global project requires accepting that there are
major cultural differences between participants.
