Ah, we enter the stage when you are so depsrate that you need to turn words in my mouth.
Are you sure you are in the position to judge the quality of various German newspapers - when you asked about other german newspapers representing Germans' opinion (or did not mean: your opinion?) and by that indicated that you do not know the German newspaper market?
I scan the national papers on the web almost every day, and also have read the print versions in the past, so I have some substantial impression about what to expect from whom. when I say the journalistic quality and the qulaity of writing and presentaiton vary, then maybe that is a poltical issue for you - not for me. I have linked essays not representing my personal opinions as well in the past years.
And can we now have your insightful criticism of Follath's original article, please? We are still waiting for you to become specific. So far you only tried to distract people from the fact that you just waved it off for being published in "a lefty place", but not saying what information or arguments you have to object the author's descriptions. I really would be interested to learn more if Follath's descriptions are wrong, but if your only argument against the essay is that it was published by the wrong magazine - then you have no valid argument at all and I can leave this little party immediately, since neither now nor in the future I would get a drink.
