I’ve done a video about my hometown Krefeld seven months ago, and they showed how my city was dying lots of stores, or a business. This video went viral. So I had to return to Germany and do an update video to see if the situation got worse through the high inflation, gas price, electric price, the situation actually worsend it looks like even more stores went out of business. I hope the city can recover. This is where I grew up and it’s really sad to see how everything looks so bad in the city. - Zábava
You can see the downfall of western society in every country😢
Yep, when ghetto culture arrives
The aristocrats and governments are raising taxes and suppressing wages. Own nothing and be happy..
There is a reason. 'New' residents don't care about living in clean well kept cities.
This is an exception in Germany. Majority of the most livable cities in the world are located in Nordic countries and German speaking countries.
They did it to themselves!
In 1982 Germany was a paradise. I can't believe how things have changed.
A false paradise. Invaded, divided, enslaved. Oh, and I guess that by "Germany" you mean West Germany, that larger chunk of a mutilated land torn apart by the jewish war. German "prosperity" and cleanliness was a lie, and the same tribe which caused Germany´s destruction was already scheming for making of her the load of rubbish she is today ....
Hi ,, 👋 your rite , I was a kid back then but I remember Germany was great for work ,, everything was different
The West shipped all of its industry to China and then the West wonders why the peoples of the West are poor -- while China is filled with new gleaming skyscrapers.
Norway was a paradice too in 1982 . I also cant belive what happened......
@@tomerikrasmussen7507 I bet, the Politics in your country, like in Germany, Sweden, Belgium, France, Netherlands, Italy asow weren't so happy with the boring, local culture?
Wow, globalization at its finest! My hats off to you sir for your brutal honesty.
Everything is going to shit because people are mentally handicapped and easily controlled. Just use meaningless words like "woke", "globalism" etc. and the sheep happily go to slaughter, all their negativity directed at an unreachable, ephemeral nothing and not the people slaughtering them - the rich who get richer off of the poverty of the people, which leads to sights like this.
I’ve said it in his last video that was filmed in Germany from several months ago that if Germany keeps following the US’s orders to support every war that the US wanted to wage against other superpowers, such as China and Russia, then Germany will follow the US into the sewers! The evidence that backs what I said is in the video! But the main difference between the US and Germany is the fact that Germany is going to suffer much more than the US since the US is Germany’s master and, because of such, the master is going to let its follower take all of the falls first before it takes a fall itself, which would only happen if the master has nobody else to take a fall for it! The US is ironing out a scheme to force most of Germany’s largest companies to move their business operations to the US so the hardship is only going to get much worse for Germany! Right now in Washington, DC the American politicians are rubbing their hands together in eager anticipation for Mercedes-Benz, BMW, BASF, Merck, etc to move their factories to the good old USA! The Ukraine War, they said, will soon reap the US major economic boom for not only would the US would be able to take over Ukraine’s natural resources and companies as payments by Ukraine to the US for helping Ukraine to pay for its war against Russia, but the US would also be able to take over Germany’s corporations as well since the costs of manufacturing anything in Germany would be astronomical due to the skyrocketing fuel prices as a result of the US’s blowing up Germany’s Nord Stream Gas Pipelines! You know, those gas pipelines that used to bring cheap Russian gas to Germany? German companies won’t be able to compete against other companies from around the world if they have to rely on gas shipped from the US with a rate that is set at 4-5 times more expensive than Russian gas! Boy, do those Americans know how to set a trap! Who says they are stupid?
It's not globalization. It's climate policy. In Europe, it is not profitable to produce anything because of taxes on emissions.
@@imho4990 BUAHAHAHA from one idiocy to another. I swear, it's just like what ever propaganda you idiots encounter first sticks.
It's the government. They need a new Fuhrer my man, this looks really bad, soulless even.
I was in Genoa about 4 years back and there was a street parallel to the ocean that was a no go zone. The graffiti sign read no police allowed. It had mostly Bangladeshi and African immigrants. The hotel receptionist said no one goes there and locals are moving out. First day, I walked without any issue. Second time, they started surrounding me and threatening. I became aware of the potential danger and left the area quickly. Interesting times.
But remember, diversity is our greatest strength.
This is coming slowly to north Europe too. And people pretend all is fine. Incredible!
System. No hope. Dak will always win. Death is stronger then life. Always wins
no one in Germany demonstrate on the street nowadays which was still often around 15 years ago. Because everyone sees that demonstration has no meaning.
US started all this mess.if you think about it.
What is coming to Germany( north Europe)?this video seems to be about going not coming
@@martin840909 They have been protesting every week during covid and after !
The Döner stores are there for other reasons, like the Spilotheken, Barbershops, Betoffices, this is all mainly for washing money
Döner guys workinig smarter not harder
Doing what most europeans want to do in avoiding taxes.
Yeah lots of them also run the drug market and other shady things and some only got the money to open those stores by those things
it is like 6 doner shops of a little street, what German government do, they close their eyes? Or you are dumb?

I quickly googled that lyric and sure enough that's what it was.
shocking to see a German town like that. It has been a long time since I visited Germay but when I was there I was impressed by how clean and orderly everthing was
It depends on which city and district you visit some are very clean, but some cities have problems. Not enough money or high debts.

So what is the cause of the problem?
Germany is not in the same mess as the UK. The UK left the EU and is paying for it
@@TML0677 Firstly, the illegal immigration killed the western countries.
Secondly, specifically to Germany, it got CHEAP gas and petrol from the URSS and then from Russia for many decades then corrupted politicians followed the US's war mentality and boycotted the primary CHEAP resource that is needed to run the factories.
Still now the corrupted and bribed (traitors) politicians are waging wars on China and Russia instead of maintaining good diplomatic relations and exchange of CHEAP goods!
Western world is in a mess. There are countries getting better.
Wow, even the mayor of Krefeld watched your video. And the WZ wanted to interview you! That’s quite impressive. Your awesome videos get the attention they deserve.
Good, bring back Uncle Addy. Germany and this tubby are an embarrassment. Germany is a vassal state
Instead of fixing the place… he wants to entertain our misery
tell the mayer it is over for his city
@@worldstar907 The mayer says Krefeld is a great place. He does not understand why people talking bad about Krefeld. According to him and the other politicians Krefeld has just a bad image because bad or stupid people talk bad about it. But it is a great place with many nice and charming places and streets. Indead there are no real problems.
Politicians live in a other dimension. Or they are so used to lie, they realy believe there own lies.
Funny, German politicians in the European Parliament teach Polish and other countries how to live and what to do at home. Thanks for this objective presentation of the real Germany
I arrived in Germany as a young soldier from Britain in 1974. It scared me?? why it was so clean...no graffiti, no litter, even the street pathways were so clean you could almost eat from them. This was Lippstadt by the way, but I did visit colleagues in Krefeld and it also seemed a nice clean place. Another colleague had German friends who were 'Hells Angels' and they met in an old factory (all the windows and doors were intact and not vandalised......the Hells Angels wore 'aftershave'.!!!
I used to know a woman, who's now in her 60's who also grew up in Germany, she said that people there regularly scrubbed their sidewalks and stairway it used to be kept so clean. How sad that the classic German village is dissolving, like many others I assume.
'Diversity' destroys all it touches.
@@freedomisslavery6840 Damn right.
Krefeld is a city and a center of industry, not a village
Thats not even considered a village
Terrible it looks like there’s no mayor. They need to enforce anti graffiti paint. I’m from London. I know Germans are tough of keeping their streets clean.
I'm saddened to see my Germany, home away from home being destroyed. I love you Germany and God Bless you all.
Hate to say it, but many leaders from the past tried to stop the cancer. But we’re called way cysts

It is literally one city in the German rustbelt, Germany is fine
@@bruxodomorro my friend, stop lying to yourself . I have police buddies in Munich and in other citys, they all say the Muslim and African immigrants are the huge problem there. Wake up, stop your “scared to be a Nazi” schtick. And face reality.
@@bruxodomorro Reminds me of the meme pic with the dog in the burning house. "All is fine"... yeeh
I grew up in the 80s and 90s, in an atmosphere of antipathy towards Germany. Many WWII witnesses were still alive then. But on the other hand, I admired and envied Germany for its economic miracle. This country seemed like paradise to me. German shops published shopping catalogues, they were thick books, they got to Poland. The kids spent hours looking through these catalogs and it was such a big WOW, today everything is more even. Regarding your video, the reason stores are out of business is Amazon, Ebay, etc. Everyone is buying online these days. Nevertheless, something bad is happening all over the world, most of the cities are rotting.
Germany's "economic miracle" was cheap , gas, oil, fuel and power from?...from?...you bet! Their Russian friend.
While people across Europe were paying 210 dollars per 1000m³ of gas, "economic miracle" was paying 40 dollars. Quite a miracle.
While buying that cheap gas from Russia, was taking free gas from Romania because EU is a big family and family members must help each other, not ripping off each other.
Romania used to be a self sustainable energetic nation, but now has to give gas for free to Germany, while Germany takes gas from Russia for 40 dollars 1000m³ , and sell it to Romania for 240 dollars 1000m³
Yes, a true economic miracle.
That "economic miracle" killed the entire EU economy and part of US economy.
The western world
@@stickfeelingsoviets had nothing to do with this. This is completely the fault of western liberal capitalism
@Stig Feeling Eastern Europe has less rotten areas than the West, North America included. But they always blame communism.😂
Too many ciapate in germany, big problem.
So,so sad to see this. I spent 5 years in Germany while in military service. I remember a different Germany, and most of my memories are fond ones. This seems to be happening all over.
Finally someone showing the other side of Germany. I commend the GIV for his bravery and openness, very few Germans are ready to show the world their dirty laundry, they like to present their country as the best in everything, all the time.
No. We tend to always be negative about everything.

@@rocknroll7316 I hear only bad news from Germany these days. This video fits the trend.
Looks like Krefeld is getting a lot of vibrant diversity.
Krefeld actually has a lot of things to offer, and migrants are pretty much what is keeping it alive.
@@brrrt6666 I stayed there for 10 months. It literally has nothing to offer whatsoever and there are more foreigners than German people on the streets. I dont mind foreigers obviously, but if they are the majority it feels weird.
@@fh2234 cycling infrastructure is good, rent is cheap, nightlife is alright, it's pretty safe, there's good places to enjoy a variety of foods, lots of green spaces and it's in the centre of the greater metropolitan area with good enough public transportation. It's better than its reputation really, especially the cycling infrastructure, have I talked about the cycling infrastructure?
@@brrrt6666 The German taxpayer through support and housing payments from the German government to the migrants which allows them to live in Krefeld is what is keeping Krefeld alive. The native Germans have long ago been replaced in many occupations by the migrants who are only able to survive with handouts from the government who pay for them with the taxes of the native Germans.
@@fh2234 I think it's alright, better than gladbach, love the borussia though.
Hey Kumpel, ich kenne die Stadt Krefeld und Mönchengladbach noch aus den 90iger und 2000er Jahren... es waren wirkliche schöne Städte. Aber heute sieht man die Probleme! Danke für deine Videos! 😎🤙✌🇩🇪🇺🇸

Globalism has been devastating to many communities :(
We never should of let them get this far. Everything is incremental when it comes to globalists taking over every aspect of our lives. It is best that people be getting out of cities.
Explain how a few abandoned buildings is a globalist problem?
It's the agenda.
Mostly the "diversity"
White liberals have destroyed the world
I remember Germany from the 90s. Cleanliness and order on the streets was amazing. It was incredibly safe too.
Today it looks quite different
You clearly haven't been to Berlin in the 1990s then.
Frankly, behind every central station there is a ghetto where you can zoom in on grafitti and the garbage piles. That is the same all over the world at any time. That's where new arrivals to the city dwelled in the middle ages too. In Detroit or Cincinatti I proably would be robbbed in borad daylight where the shiv gang tags are on the walls. Us ranks 36th between South Africa and Azerbaijan on violence. 7th on police killing between El Salvador and Niigeria. Germany is still on the totally other end of the spectrum. I f I want chaos behind a central station I'll find it way more easily in any other place but Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Scandinavia. Germany is one of the safest places in the world.
@@voster77hh You clearly haven't been to the central stations of Hamburg, Frankfurt or Berlin, man. If you would call that safe compared to what it used to be like, I can't help you.
Why should Germany compare itself with literal shitholes like ANC-ruled South Africa who is literally murdering and butchering the people that grow their food?
yeah plus our rivalry was fun to me (dutch neighbor) those pretend problems where bliss xD
@@mikeforester3963 every capitol city is a shit stain compared to the rest of the country saying you don't know the netherlands because you haven't seen amsterdam in the 90's as just as stupid of a remark! ofcourse berlin was unsafe back then so was amsterdam paris rome new york etc!
As an American living in Krefeld right now, I can say this video is 100% true. It's really sad. I live in a beautiful Altbau right by the Hauptbahnhof, which is meticulously kept up by my landlord. My apartment is amazing and very, very cheap. I moved here during the pandemic, so the streets were quiet, and all I saw were the beautiful old buildings.
But now, the minute I set foot outside to go to work everyday, I get harassed by crackheads, demanding money and even yelling insults (I understand German enough to know what they're saying to me).
I have injured myself by tripping over the trash on the sidewalks, and the entire city smells like pee and marijuana.
I figured out that the route from my place to the Rewe on Philadelphiastraße has the least amount of people begging for money, so that's why I shop there.
Though I did walk in there one day to witness a fistfight at the cash registers (????).
I love my apartment and my landlord is cool as hell, so I'm torn about leaving to go back to Düsseldorf, but between all this and the godawful Ausländerbehörde that treats me like some kind of criminal(I'm a skilled professional who has paid taxes in Germany for 7 years, and has never and will never take a dime of government money), leaving is becoming far more tempting.
same here. But I can understand the anger of some of the Germans towards foreigners. I rarely go to the city center and crowded places because my work is outside the city , but once I get invited by a friend to go there, I see hordes of young men from 4 to 8 everywhere and they are acting loud and pushy. And from what I have seen so far, most of them are on social help. Even the women left those places compared to 5 years ago.
Besides that, I usually receive in a subtle way remarks from germans telling me that my country is beautiful, why did I leave my country ... but in a very polite way. There are some that completely ignore you or never talk to you.
I am also a skilled professional paying taxes but I prefer leaving in the coming years. And honestly I am against taking millions of young men at once like Germany did. I am for giving aid or doing it progressively. But from the way I see many Germans leaving and many outsiders without skills getting in, I don´t wanna bet on the future of Germany.
I was born in Krefeld and it is really shameful what you have to experience here. Krefeld used to be a beautiful town and the people were friendly. There is almost nothing left of it.
Same here in the UK. Business is booming in Ukraine though!
I worked in Southern Germany on construction about 30 years ago l thought to myself what a beautiful country and the people I met were very welcoming such a shame to see it now it’s the same here in the UK, why are the governments allowing this to happen shame on them
To be honest, the south of Germany is still quite nice even today. The video shows a typical city in the west.
My friend governments allmoust in every country in Europe they are gang liders imposters and butchers they should be put behind the bars . They brought immigrants in milions to Europe and America did that to Europe for purpose to destroy Europe. Putin looks like the egnel when you comper all that
These are ---- even if we don't think of it as part of it --- really just small aspects of the way of ENTROPY. Entropy doesn't just happen in "nature," by which we erroneously think we're not part of; but we ARE a part of entropy, too, as both individuals and communities. Rome, Paris, San Francisco, New York, London, Berlin, Shanghai, Beijing, Athens.... they all were once pristine...
And then they became settled, and they became crowded and dirty and smelly... and, then, later, as governments became more organized, nations became more developed, with better technologies and more wealth, these major urban cities were developed and made better... and then around the edges, wear and tears started again, with more people, more poverty, more crimes...
And, then, eventually .... EVERY SINGLE one of these major, sophisticated cities will RETURN to dilapidated, abandoned places... to be reclaimed by nature again.... like the majestic Angkor Wat, the Mayan and Aztec cities, from southern Mexico to Peru... to the mighty Egyptians and Sumerian/ Mesopotamians early civilizations.
Not sure why people think that is NOT the most NATURAL way of how things operate in the Universe, including here on good ole Earth...
People who say bullshit things like "It's THE OTHER LOW CLASS people who are ruining everything, because in my youth, none of this decay existed..." are just COMPLETE IDIOTS, at best; at worst, they are uneducated racists.
Things go up and they come down; but it takes decades & centuries & sometimes even millenniums; but they DO decay and return to nature (lower state of energy, lower state of organization) eventually.... just like OUR OWN bodies, marvelous, wondrous biological machines that start to break down once we complete our celluar growth process.... in our late 20s... by our late 30s to late 40s muscle and bone break downs have started. And the break down completes by the time we are in our 70s to 90s...
And we return to the very basic molecular and atomic constituents from which we're original assembled...
@@kiabtoomlauj6249 It is not entropy. It is because the people who operate these places could never have built them in the first place. It is the difference between founding and inheriting. If you build something from the ground up, you know the business inside and out. If you are just given something with earning it, you will slowly let all the wheels fall off.
@@caesars7hills892 yes a sort of social entropy.. possibly it will be rebuilt again in 50 years but it is sad to see
I lived in Krefeld in the early 1960s, my father was stationed there with the British army. I was a young boy aged 10 years, I recall it being a traditional German town with very friendly population, it was a really friendly place to live and play.
To see the town in such a state of decay is appalling, it saddens me to see it in such a state!
@Russia Bro Z (You know, like Dragonball Z lol) Don't let nationalism push you towards certain ideologies. It's one thing to be angry at those who shame your country and/or hate on you for your ethnicity; It's another to support the hatred embodied by such a "mustache'd man"

So many men sitting on the sidewalks, mostly young men. Very much like in cities in the US. So surprised to see this in Germany. I think a lot of the empty storefronts are from high retail rents and duplicate "luxury" goods stores that you see in every town. But I'm surprised about the Kaufhof!
Es ist erschreckend, wie sich diese Stadt verändert hat.
Nice to see the police have their priorities straight, sit there waiting for people to ride their bikes on the wrong street but apparently turning a blind eye to an unbelievable about of graffiti and general vandalism.

This is sad. Me and both of my brothers were born in different cities in Germany, when Germany still had its identity. It’s sad seeing the different countries in Europe lose their identities due to globalism. 😢

― Friedrich Nietzsche, philosopher and savant
Most spiritual sublime city in Germany is Rocken, Germany the birthplace of F.Nietzsche, the philosopher for the eternal day after tomorrow. The rest of Germany is run by Marxist hollow men, empty suits with the stones of department store mannequins. The real Germany is found in the Nietzsche library in Rocken free from the stench of the EU Marxists and Belgium grifters in EU leadership. The wonderful German people should exit the EU and all the wasteland of EU Marxist vapidness.
Germany still has an identity; all of Europe still has their own identity. Its time for mass deportation (not just of immigrants but those trying to use immigrants to erase the past and future of European people).
Thank your WEF leaders.
Thank your American overlords and that clown puppet you call chancellor.
Your video really makes a statement on these times . . . not just in your old hometown but worldwide.

That's because the only way to fix it would be considered racist.

Went to Germany in the 80s and was impressed with the cleanliness and the law abiding citizens. Sad to see what it has become
I lived in Germany in the early 1950s. Despite having just lost a war, the German people still had a lot of dignity. The cleanliness impressed me and it breaks my heart to see that people are now willing to walk through garbage, and ignore the graffiti that is such a stain on the city. As there seems to be no will for change, I guess it can only get worse.
The corporal was right in so many ways.
Read your history book: It wasn't just a war and dignity wasn't involved in anything the Germans did. Thank god they lost but they got away with it way too easy.
Name any place in the entire world where there isn't a new arrivals poor migrants place with shiv gang tags and garbage piles behind the central station. In Detroit or cincinatti you prbably won't be able to upload the pictures from your phone because of being robbed in broad daylight on the streets, In Germany you can safely take out your phone and film a video w/o being mugged. Get real pls. Germany is an orderly place compared to all the chaos in the world. Just check the ranks of Germany and the US on violence aand police killings

There is no will to change as the germans here in rhine area our biggest state of NRW , surely know that we are soon the minority in 1-2 generations.

Es ist wirklich traurig was aus Krefeld geworden ist, 1994 wollte ich nicht dort weg, aber ich musste mit meinen Eltern umziehen. Heute bin ich froh wenn ich sehe wie es jetzt geworden ist. Es war richtig schön in den 80ern und early 90s in Gatherhof/Krefeld vom Kind zum Jugendlichen zu werden, ich vermisse diese Zeit.

Jetzt ist sie vergammelt und versifft, diese Stadt.

Ich war vor ca. 35 Jahren mal in Krefeld und fand es eigentlich hübsch, aber jetzt wirkt es einfach total verwahrlost.
so sad , I come from Wuppertal and now live in Holland, sometimes I visit Wuppertal and see the inflation is worse in Holland
My heart breaks for the people of your city. People in cities in America are dealing with the same thing

Michael, very sad about your city, just a shame it is like that now. I just found out that Krefeld was the city where Gustav Mahler premiered his Symphony Number 3, on June 9, 1902! Interesting! Keep up the nice videos!
It's not just Krefeld, most cities in the state of Nord Rhine-Westphalia look like this nowadays. Nord Rhine-Westphalia used to be the ''industrial heartland'' of Germany with it's coal mining, machine, steel work & chemical industries. Even though, most of these industries were bombed into oblivion during WWII by the Allies, they were rebuild and made W. Germany an economic/industrial powerhouse.
Since the 1990's though, they all have been closed down & outsourced.
Back in the 1960's/70's, Germany was ''importing'' people to work in these industries, for the last 20 years, they ''import'' people who come to exploit the social benefit system.
American here, but I have family from the Ost (East) of Germany. I remember it was always looked down on by the West part, but now the East seems to be cleaner and in order.
they are not overrun by west asians
I'm an American living in East Germany currently. We have run down cities like Halle and Magdeburg, as well and other small villages that are dilapidated and desolate.
There are definitely immigration problems. The empty rhetoric is always population and lack of personnel.
I live in Sachsen Anhalt and it is not better here, in some cities even worse.
You missed Eisenhüttenstadt Hoyerswerda and Schwedt. All deindustrialized cities after 1990😢
I understand why they closed down the street underpass. Drugs, theft, possible attacks can take place in such a place. So sad. Years ago, there was no fear of that and people were able to use the underpass for their convenience and safety!!! What has happened to our world?!!

Germany has simply become similar to the US. It is still a wealthy country in general, but has endangered cities like Detroit.
@Ozi Bits No problem, mate. Even the poorest and unemployed people in Germany receive a monthly benefit of 500 euros from the state, paid housing and health insurance. For the vast majority of this world, that's luxury.
Nice documentary. Strange times. I am in a similliar situation. Spend the last 25 years mostly abroad but still have my self owned flat in Berlin. Berlin made of course a rather rise through the years. But still you can feel and see the decline of Western society. I maybe should do a vlogg as well. Everything is so sad. No real energy left.😥
It’s sad to see the city being ruined by those who want nothing in life but to destroy.
These destructive people are on our streets and in our governments and it’s a shame.
The tiny number of thugs and criminals are given more rights than the hard working people who pay taxes. The world is being destroyed by the dregs of society.

It's all happening by design. Look at all the events in the world. Klaus Schwab calls it the great reset. They want total control over people. They already have all the wealth. This has been going on for many generations. Thing can never go back to were they were. Stop consuming main stream media.

Traurig, was aus der schönen Innenstadt geworden ist. Ich war dort schon viele Jahre nicht mehr. Gerne war ich im Cafe "Extrablatt" gegenüber vom Kaufhof. Oder um die Ecke herum im "Cafe Journal". Selbst die Disco "Königsburg" ist schon vor vielen Jahren abgerissen worden.
Leider stirbt langsam das Ruhrgebiet und der Niederrhein. In meiner Jugend ging man nach Moers oder Krefeld um zu feiern. Ist leider alles vorbei!

Its a run down place. I used to live in Giessen, Frankfurt/M and Berlin (Charlottenburg). I left in 2000 cause I saw the trouble on the horizon. Unfortunately I was right. I still miss Europe, no doubt. My female friends are afraid to walk the streets late at night. I miss the days when US Armed Forces were in Germany in large numbers. Shame.
Armes Deutschland aber in Amerika gibt es Unruhe und viel zu viel Kriminalitaet.
Not females, but I'm afraid to go out at night and even in the morning. Depends on the neighborhood. I became a home person.
@@napoleonbonaparte4396 The government is to blame. We built up a great country and the politicians ruined everything for us. The question is what will be in the end??
@@Design770 People are not going to church anymore. As the matter of fact, churches are closing. In my town, one Baptist church and one Roman Catholic church are closed. Ethnic and religious demographics is changing everywhere. A large number of unskilled immigrants from developing and undeveloped countries need a local government assistance. Large population in local communities pushing housing markets up and governments imposed high taxes on businesses. This is one of the factors that commodities and real estate is expensive. Good example is France. I see no bright future. Life is getting harder and harder.
I spent 3 years in Germany when I was in the RAF, and I absolutely loved it, your towns were spotless and your people so nice. But from what you show us now, it looks just as bad as the UK. Soi sad, I don't know how we let this happen to either of our countries.

I was in Krefeld in 1972, I was 12 and dont remember much. I do know it was a well cared for city back then. This is really sad to see!
That was also just 32 years from the end of WW2. Germany was in the middle of a economic boom miracle from having to rebuild the country from scratch. Those days are over now and many little post war industrial towns are gonna get hit hard. Especially with giant and economically vibrant Dusseldorf right next door. People are gonna go where the Universities and jobs are. And that aint Krefeld unfortunately. If they want to re-invigor that place, instead of building a 24 million dollar bus station there, build a 50 million dollar university there. That will attract students, and new businesses from the new economic growth. I mean, this is just basic MBA 101 level stuff here folks
wow ich hatte ernsthaft in erwägung gezogen nach krefeld zu ziehen, aber dieses video war eine mehr als deutliche Warnung. Dankeschön!
I still remember time when we went to Germany from Poland, all was nicer in Germany, bigger, just more wealthy and better organized country. Today is reverse: when we cross the border from Germany to Poland, we feel like we entered better part of Europe, more clean, safer and simply nicer. How fast it changed, incredible.
@Manic Miner I'll agree with you, but your comment misses the point: This isn't all about money. Keeping the streets clean, well-maintained buildings, and addicts treated are signs of a healthy and prosperous society. Poland isn't like Germany in that regard because: It doesn't want to be. Places like Krefeld were once clean and well organized, but they have to actually want it. They need to stop living in the 'what can be' and accept the world as it really is.
Affordable energy is certainly part of the problem, but that's a whole different discussion.
@Manic Miner bajki, stary kotku. Powtarzane przez niemiaszkow jak ty. Po prostu wasze multi kulti to syf i dramat. But you simply cannot get it. Stubborn..hahahaha
@Manic Miner So Germans are idiots, what else is new?
Maybe in some cities in the east of Germany can look worse but Germany in general has a very organized and clean environment. Maybe comparing the worse cities in Germany with the best in Poland works but is not fair..
Because Germany pays for all the expenses in the EU, that's why. And Poland gets the money. But I hope the people will fight and win their countries back from the greedy and corrupted EU beaurocrats. Down with this EU!
Incredible! It reminded me of those dying towns in the American midwest.
Wow. Thanks for showing us all this goodies. 😮. It's everywhere i was in Lisbon somewhere looks like here gohst town no surprise
The graffiti on the wall @ 10:25 "The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had." Is a quote from a song called 'Mad World' which was released in 1982 by a British band called 'Tears for Fears'.

@@jimgiordano3613 you will own nothing and be happy agenda 2030
Just like any new arrivals ghetto behind a central staion on full zoom on a garbage piles and shiv gang tags in the entire world. Maybe excluding Iceland, Switzerland, Monaco, Singapore or Dubai. In Detroit or Cicinnati you couldn't make this video. Either the crack dealer gang would rob your phone in broad daylight or the police would mistake it for a gun. US ranks on the other side of the spectrum - 36th on violence between South Africa and Azerbaijan. 7th on police killings between El Salvador and Nigeria. Germany is on the other end of the scale wehre you can pull a smartphpne out of your pockets w/o anyone give you a second look and film their tags or garbage pile in their ghhetto and not threaten or beat you up. I would never ever dare this in any US city behind the train station where the drug dealers and meth wh$res hang out, I recommend to drive by in a taxi and compare to a US city and zoom out. I don't recommend doing that in your own car. In germany you can use your own, Might not be the most clean oor beutful street in town, but that is expected. But you will be safe - even as a black or asian migrant or LGBTQ+ whatever person you will be totally safe. there is plenty of relaxed police and private security around. There will be zero guns in the public space. That is Germany - even on full zoom the difference is drastic by dacts and numbers. I recommend to check life outside the suburbia bubbles rat race. That reality check between US aand Europe may water your eyes. If you want stats or pictures of live around me in Hamburg Germany you are welcome.
It always hurts to see your childhood city go downhill. I have good memories of my hometown but I saw it after 10 years and the dying downtown and dilapidation of the central core was heartbreaking. Online shopping has hurt every place.
My old childhood street on the island of Oahu in Hawaii, Portlock Road. When I was a kid it was "Millionaire's Row" but also working-class people there too. And it was lush and green and there were big trees, and wonderful places. I went back in 03 and it was kind of blah.
Not online shopping. People don't have money anymore because the recession and high rent.

Great video! I grew up in Krefeld. It has never been a beautiful city by any standard, but seeing the current state of it is really shocking. I'm so glad I moved away many years ago. Every time I visit there I promise myself to never return. So many drug addicts, prostitutes and criminals... I hope you and your mother stay safe.
Tragic. I remember Krefeld in the early 90s. Never the most beautiful place in Germany, but nothing like this.
like you man. Real and chill, just talking the truth about what you see. No bullshit in your videos, its perf finally
I traveled to Germany and saw a lot of beautiful places, but I was shocked at the level of Graffiti in city's like Dresden.
Berlin is also bad with it. And got a lot dirtier as well. 😢
"I dont think the mayor really liked it cause he thought I had a different gender" Classic, keep doing what your doing Mike. Alles Gute!!!
Krefeld has a special place in my heart. Lived at Ostwall for some time until I returned to Berlin. I remember around 2008 Krefeld appeared to me somewhat "urig" with its own charme. Lots of different shops and cafés. Many high class shops as well with waterbeds, furniture, fabric, musical instruments, video rentals etc. All gone. The downfall came crushing around 2014. Friends had to move because certain people started overtaking whole blocks. Locals had been trying to give new life to this place but to no avail. I enjoyed coming to Krefeld, now I havent been there for over 5 years. It saddens me.
There's a slow move to eliminate cars from cities and force people in to public transport systems. The problem with this is that cities that have pushed this have literally killed businesses in these areas. People want to park near where they shop or have business to attend to.
Was all over Germany in the 90's. Wow what a difference it used to be so clean and well ordered .
I lived in Krefeld in 1995 as an exchange program . It was great. This is really sad.
Well you have seen they already build new office space. This place needs some care but its not a hopless case.
Worked in Krefeld in the late 1970,s and like many German cities it was clean, free of graffiti, at least where I was, people were polite and friendly, went back to Germany a few times on holiday before the pandemic and couldn’t believe how much it has gone downhill, you always felt safe walking around even in the dark, now during daylight hours, beggars everywhere, streets full of litter, illegal dumping, etc,etc, didn’t feel safe, one good thing was that the German people are still helpful and friendly, my German is very poor now but they listened politely to my destroying their language and went out of their way to help, i personally still love Germany and it’s people but take your country back 50 years please and make it safe and pleasant again
Both these videos are fascinating. In an inadvertent way, you also compared Krefeld to Oberhausen. (With your video of the mall and the Ferris wheel). Easy to see why Krefeld is struggling. Hard to compete with the city 24 miles away.
Looks like the downtown doesn’t know what it is trying to be. The parts are not moving in unison.
It's a real shame to see all this poverty and closures of businesses, my friend it must be heartbreaking to see your hometown slowly meet such an end. Perhaps the mayor should start to focus on greening the town in the hope of revitalising it
"Perhaps the mayor should start to focus on greening the town in the hopes of revitalizing it"
You are so woefully out of touch, just like their mayor. Please wake up.
It's all over Germany ..the once so desirable inner city is getting deserted ...locals don't notice the changes as much as someone who visits once in a while
There was a study made to make Krefeld greener. More friendly for bikes and walking. Solar energy and other future concepts. Fassade and roof greening.Following that plan would make the City much nicer and more livable.
I think this plan was made 10 years ago. If not more.
But the politicians startet Image campaigns instead. That helped nothing but make them feel good.

I was Station in Krefeld for 3 years when serving in the British Army, its so sad to see the dilapidation, it spotless when I lived there in 1968 - 1971.
When I visit Berlin, I think I am in an Middle Eastern city. No need to travel abroad.
Disgusting
they had already longtime to stop immigration from the Middle East and Africa. All Europe is becoming a second Africa or Middle East. No refugees from Middle East or Africa anymore please.
Nah Berlin is like visiting the entire world at each U Bahn station not just the middle east. Plus you're literally latino
I live right across the border from krefeld close to venlo. When i drive to Germany, it always looks so depressing. I'm happy that i rarely have to go there.
It's just like cities and towns in the UK. I think everything has being going down the pan since the 70's but accelerated in the early 2000.
UK was 20 years earlier, that's all.
That's what happens when you open your door and let the wrong people in.
Same in cities in the UK unfortunately. Different values and not good ones.
It is the same here in the US, deterioration across this whole nation.
profound analysis, amazingly
Open the door to.Italians? Most immigrants in that city are Italians. Most of the immigrants there are From Europe. The smallest i.migrant population are From Syria and Romania.
Online shopping has been instrumental in the decline of retail stores all over the world. There are literally thousands of abandoned shopping malls everywhere.
Add to that the state of the global economy, interest rates are going up, prices are going up, rent is going up. The cost of living in general is just crazy.
Then you have this global phenomenon of lawlessness popping up everywhere. Crime is sky high, robbery, theft, violence and the police seemingly unable, or unwilling, to do anything about it. It's anarchy and it's being tolerated, nobody is doing anything about it.
The world has gone mad...
My family was from Krefeld and lived there many years until a man named William Penn talked them into traveling to Philadelphia back in the 1680's. Sad to see this sort of decline, but, honestly, it's worldwide. . .
Renaissance traders are turning in their graves while watching this video.
@Curious Rex, Countries in the Far-East have not seen this rate of decline. Perhaps it has something to do with being colonized and learning from past mistakes. The colonizers were mostly from European countries which do not have much natural resources and therefore resorted to colonialism to 'steal' those resources to enrich themselves. The decline in Europe is mostly karma biting back.

Ich komme aus Kamp-Lintfort und bin regelmäßig in Krefeld bei den Heimspielen der Pinguine. Krefeld ist wirklich nicht mehr das, was es mal war. Früher sind wir gerne zum shoppen hingefahren, mittlerweile nicht mehr.
This breaks my heart and soul. As someone who was born in the German diaspora, I have longed to return to Germany. What brief time I have spent there was so overwhelming and comforting. I finally felt like I was home. Germans thought I was German and got mad when I said I couldn't speak German. Seeing Germany flooded with non-Germans and then the gradual collapse of German social norms has been so painful. The German government won't acknowledge the diaspora, but will happily accept non-Germans as "new Germans". It is like seeing someone living in your home, abusing your wife and kids, destroying family heirlooms, and disrespecting you at every opportunity.
don;t worry the real germanics are more south , that Germanic are Nordics vikings not the real ones
I feel your anguish! I was stationed twice in Germany (total 5 yrs) 35 & 45 yrs ago; it tears my heart out to see the collapse! I had come to love Germany & it’s people, culture. In this vid, seeing the old lady with the walker, I can only imagine what she must think of it all. It is all a shame.
Uh well, I could also zoom in on garbage piles and gang tags behind Detroit central station - Krefeld is a coal & steel rust belt town. What you put forth is deeply racist. The migrants simply demographically do the jobs Germans would not touch. Neither for the pay nor their low social status. Any migrant everywhere does start on square 1 doing the lowliest and worst paid jobs in the worst unsafe and rundown housing behind the central station. That is basics of sociology.
German social norms are basically the Alman meme or the Birkenstock Teutonic ideological warrior with a stick up the backside. Looking at my fellow Germans we are just a bunch of people like everyone else. We do believe in education, good governance and free global markets with a social touch and hard work for our gospel of wealth. You can't judge any country by their migrant ghetto of new arrivals behind the central station. Compared to Cincinnati or Detroit you can sefely walk the road in broad daylight w/o being robbed or the police shooting you.
I probably would prefer the latent German racism as a migrant over the police racism and gun violence getting me shot in the US. The US ranks 36 on violence between South Africa and Azerbaidjan. It ranks 7 on police killing between El Salvador and Nigeria. Means the migrants integrate pretty well and absolutely love the idea of a peaceful life. By numbers Germany is a very decent place to live in a central station ghetto. If you can afford suburbia you wouldn't live there like in any other country on the entire planet. Your argument is a paranoid fear of chaos - Germany is a totally orderly and efficiently policed place. Germany is on the other end of the scale of these stats. There is no one but folks on the internet disrespecting me over here as white German potatoe.
That prception is too much of a matter of alienation and division sowed by Russian agitprop propaganda paid by the KGB slush funds of russian oil&gas money. Outin declared a proganda war before 2014 on the entire west and no one did care. That is what is causing chaos in the world.
The is the simple and to be expected Cold War 2.0 issue Putin is waging. Putin thinks decarbonization and demographics is the end of Russia. If anyone got a issue with low birthrates then it is Russians being grown out of their own country w/o any immigration. If anyone feels existentially threatened as Petrostate than it is the deindustrialized and low-tech Russsian economy. The petrostate welfare makes Russian criminally lazy booze and meth addicts with wild dreams of past imperal glory in golden palaces with door moneky guardssaluting their Zar Putler Stalinowitch the not-so-Great. Russia has a patheic 3rd world ressource export economy of the scale between Canada and Australia. By now it is less industrialzed than Italy and tries to play 2nd against the entire top 20 and expect to win. That's totally deluded chaos mongering on their own evil PsyOps propaganda machine of KGB Siloviki oligarchs. Being high oon their own anti-western propaganda. Looking for co-addicts everywhere.
Russian trolls and sponsored media seep this divison via money laundering into every media space in the world that isn't vigilant. Russia declined into a pathetic affair and we lost interest and grew complacent. Focussed on other more important things. I blame no one for that. But that is where all the chaos is currently coming from. Russia acts like a better fundend North Korea grabbing attention from anyone by causing chaos and division where it can.
That is what Stalins people, Lenins people and communist do all the time. Buy, bribe and lie themselves into the media zone. Cause unrest and division. That is what they always did because it is the only path forward that they do have. We are just not paying attention because we are too busy and hate our neighbor for his stupid bumper stickers and virtue signalling.
If there is one secret puppet master with a ton of playing money from vast oil&gas cash-flows and large teams of KGB trained agents and internet hackers and troll farms look no further. It would be totally naive to look elsewhere if this guy openly declares NATO and the US Russian enemies and openly stands by it all the time. Just look at the money trail they leave all over the place.
Russia is feeding 2 monsters the same time to sow division - they fund Nazis and Communists at the same time. They create division to exploit by this. They push button on fear of chaos and fear of falling behind at the same time intentionally. Being a community around the center is the only answer to this outside influence incited chaos. That's classic PsyOps tactics.
Russia is pouring KGB slush funds into both ends of the spectrum. They fund ultra-nationalist with the devils right hand and ultra-communist with the devils left hand. that is Russia build their empire. Not too much different from how the Romans or the Brits build theirs. I prefer the US open market democracy buy-in of Pax Americana. and NATO. That's a way more fair deal for me as a German. Sure, you may argue about shifting and distributing the burdens of that shared security alliance in peacetime. Putin just started a war and we need to focus on it, no matter if what our preference of priority may be. It is still a world of nuclear deterence with no place for nuclear blackmail. We depend on rules and world order governing that safely.
Oil is devils blood and Russians use it for hellish political malevolent things. I would prefer a united and strong US world order - not neostalinist Russian imperialism triggering wars and genocide om peaceful people on a quest against Russian PsyOps, corruption and rising their weallth and peaceful nation. That Russian PsyOps chaos and dividion is the least thing a conflicted and challenged world and humanity needs. If you want order over chaos then don't buy into Putins divisive psyops propaganda. This is all about defunding Putins petrostate. Sanction him. Are Russian peaceful and willing to trade or do they chiise to walk the Iran and North Korea road? A simple question about our complacency in the West when considering to buying their petro devils blood stuff. Will that money boomerang back on us as PsyOps and divisive inflammatory proganda?
Any time your hear a defund campaign that is a KGB agitprop response to defund fossil fuels. Russia considers climate action a motion against "them" - Moscovite ethnic Russians. They frame that science topic as a propaganda tool to get rid of "them". They make anyone else believe the earth is flat, there is reptiloids all over the place and aliens are around. The pour money on eveything inciting from child abuse to migration to minority issues to race. That's what Russian troll farms are tasked with.
Unfortunately we invented social media "free lunch" ad fueled media spaces with no supervisors. That is total chaos as Russian KGB slush funds can easily buy what they need and leave no traces. They can freely funneely money into both the extrem left and extreme right. If you want to sow chaos and division in any well-working and orderly community that is the thing to do. If you want to divide and conquer that is the PsyOps campaing to weaken your enemy and keep it from uniting behind their flag, You pour oil into the fires under control on the fringes on both sides while no one is watching.
Seems like a "you" problem to be honest. Germany doesn't belong to you, please stay away it sounds like you have a psychotic episode
What about WW2 and what horrible things Germany did to others? Does that breaks your little bleeding heart by any chance?

I'm from the Ruhr area and visited Burg Linn and the adjacent museum last fall. I was really surprised that the city was once very rich due to its silk industry and that the patronage of wealthy residents led to the city being an important place for art and music, even up until the 1950s. The Rhine-Ruhr region was never as fancy as other parts of Germany, but growing up here in the 90s, I can witness the slow descend of our region. I grew up in a part of town that had social housing, but it was still a nice, well kept neighbourhood with tidy streets, people planting flowers etc. Now, when I drive through that part of my home city, I get sad and mad at the same time, when I see how worn down and dirty everything is. And the city centre looks just the same as seen in the video.
What's worst: In the past, we really had a strong middle class and that included both German and migrant families. Now, society is getting increasingly stratified, with migrants having a far larger risk of descending into poverty. Imo, Germany under Merkel decided to make a harsh paradigm shift and become an "immigration nation" within just a few years, without having a proper, long term plan for dealing with the challenges this will bring. Plus, our leaders failed to see the economical opportunities of many future technologies, leading to some industries basically closing up shop and moving elsewhere, further increasing the downward trend in many regions.
Also our school system is pretty close to collapsing, with some federal states already cutting lessons and grading requirements in order to deal with the increased work load of fewer and fewer teachers. I am really skeptical of our government turning things around tbh.
Germany is also far behind in digitalisation. The internet is bad for the most part and many institutions and places run with letters and fax machines. You have to wait for weeks and months for certain things while in countries like Denmark, Estonia, Japan etc. things are handled directly.

Ich war letztens noch in Maastricht, nur eine Fahrtstunde von Krefeld.Dort haben die Menschen sich noch nicht aufgegeben, dachte ich ein wenig polemisch. Sauber, freundlich und voller Leben. Aber Lokalpolitik macht einen Unterschied, eine halbe Stunde östlich von Maastricht liegt Aachen, noch schlimmer daran als Krefeld, trotz Universität und schöner kleiner Altstadt. Dort hatte ich den Eindruck, die haben die städtische Gesellschaft wirklich total an die Wand gefahren.
