Love that you watch Pispers, here's some context and some improvements (hopefully) on translation for better understanding, hope you'll find it useful, keep it up:
3:20 Rainer Calmund used to gain weight continously due to the jojo-effect with dieting until he weighed 180 kg. I believe that's what Pispers meant by eternal growth. In 2020 Calmund had surgers to reduce the size of his stomach and has lost around half of his pek-weight.
7:40 Poorly translated! Pispers is satirizing Thilo Sarrazin [compare comment to timestamp 10:55] and actually quips, "It's not their [Southern Europeans] fault, they are born with a hammock, you can't do anything about that."
9:18 The far-right, islamophobic party Pegida is referring to islamic terrorists with such slogans.
10:55 Pispers is referring to the highly controversial yet best-selling book "Deutschland schafft sich ab" (Germany abolishes itself) by former SPD-politician Thilo Sarrazin. The book was published in 2010. On its contents from the wikipedia page to the book: "Sarrazin argued for restricting Muslim immigration to Germany on the grounds that Muslims who had immigrated to Germany from Turkey and other Muslim countries had failed to assimilate into German society, lived culturally separate lives in densely Muslim neighborhoods, and that two thirds of Germany's Muslim immigrants were on welfare.
Sarrazin argued that if immigration continued, Germany would, over time, become a predominantly Muslim country."
11:35 The famous comedy-duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were nicknamed "Dick und Doof" (Fat and Stupid) in Germany, an example for the poorer German humor. Pispers is using the reference to indicate that Sigmar Gabriel exhibits both those qualities.
13:42 Pispers is using these clichés to show that it's impossible to qualify an entire people as lazy or hard-working.
16:30 The translation was not so crisp here. Pispers said, "750 millions of losses, at West LB that counted as a good day!" West LB AG (Westdeutsche Landesbank Aktiengesellschaft) was a bank group that lost immense sums fo money due to high-risk investment choices. It was dissolved and split into a few new banks in 2012, which still exist.
18:16 "Ein-Euro-Jobber": Germany can offer people who've been unemployed for a long period of time "Ein-Euro-jobs", jobs that are paid with one Euro per hour, in addition to unemployment benefit. The idea is to get people off the streets and off their couch and reinforce their will to work. The concept has been criticized for being demeaning and pointless though, because those people often fulfill rather useless tasks (e. g. pointing out trainplatforms and bus stations to passengers) and only get paid one Euro per hour.
19:55 Pispers is comparing capitalism to the lottery here, where anyone can win, but not everyone, which is a slight but distinct difference that's a lot harder to grasp in German (alle/jeder).
bro... thx a lot man... O_O
@@Kushenable You're welcome!😁
24:00 "Do you think the Africans will wait another 50 years for luck to come to them? No, they will get up at some point and come to find their luck. And they will understand, it's nonsense to hop into a small boat with everyone. They will come with many boats." (auto translate understood "Boten" -> messengers instead of "Booten" -> boats).
At some point it made G7 cities out of G7 states (in German "Stadt" vs. "Staat")

This show is dripping of sarcasm, subtle hints and plays a lot with prejudices. For a non native speaker surely hard to follow. Kudos to you.
especially with this way too literal translation, sometimes stuff just doesnt make sense
Thats true if you don't know the political contxt or the german language you could get him wrong
True. It's also not too easy to directly translate German into English and keep the sense of it. You cannot use Google Translate to translate the sense of things he says, Google can only translate roughly the words but not the meaning. And of course vice versa English German and German English. That goes for all languages.
@@mischa1981That's capitalism. 😂
There _are_ subtitles, aren't there? Some needy person had to take the job, and they knew. So ...
He uses the example Rainer Callmund, because he was a famos football player in germany and after his career he enjoy to eat a lot...😉😅
Yes, and he got bigger and bigger until eventually his growth stopped.😅
I once met Reiner Calmund in person. He is such a funny and positive personality.
🤣🤣OMG....Calli played in the reserves of an amateur club for a few years before he switched to coaching due to an injury. He was an excellent manager but he was so poor on the ball that he became one himself. jungejunge...
@@beardandbelly6003 he's famous for his managerskills, not for playing soccer
And today? Host in cooking TV show. He eats, and gave points for taste.....
Grill den Hennsler on Germany TV Vox
@@dasverbalrektum Calli rocks. I just wanted to mention that he ate the Ballon d'Or and didn't win it.
@@beardandbelly6003 😂
He delivered the right message at the wrong time and the wrong country. The US of today desperately need someone to tell the truth to them in that way
But Show is over 10 years old. Seemd its always the wrong Country or time. Pisper was hard on kritic on US and Germany and capitalist but May today he some Russians should see it and think, a lot of space and some Ultrariche People but still its not enough for some Russians the also want more even a other Country if not free than with force... sorry it Seemd alwasy pispers is shown in wrong Country or at the wrong time.
He delivered the right message at the right time and the right country for decades. But only a small amount listened. Thats why he quit, he's tired of running against windmills. I was lucky to see him live a few years back. And the US would'nt listen either, like any other country in this world.
Well, Michael Moore did it 20 years ago in the US but nobody gave a sht excepting europeans🤷♂️🥩👍
@@j.w.2166 Thats sadly true.
not at all, cause its filmed its stuff for all ppl of the world. not only for us germans, but he definetely makes a point and is years in advantage and that time, unfortunate, he doesnt come back to stage.
Even if some jokes are lost in translation 'cause of play on words, which can't really be translated, you understood his core message completly. The system in which we live is broken. Not democracy is broken, but capitalism as a way of life is stupid as fuck. We as humans consume more than earth can offer. That is the task for the future. Finding ways for all of us to live a decent and peaceful life.
And a huge part of the answer is so obvious that it almost hurts! If we, meaning the people living in the rich countries, would give up all the luxury nonsense, like the even bigger TV we don't see the least bit more on or the electric bicycle, that just helps us to arrive somewhere a full 23 seconds earlier, that would reduce our consumption of natural resources by a decent amount.
BUT: that would mean a loss of jobs, which in turn would mean poverty for many. And so, giving up the luxury nonsense, which would help saving the world in the long run, means loss and poverty in the short run, because of the mechanisms of capitalism. Now, that's what I call a vicious circle! And to break out of it, we might need to break some capitalist rules, I suppose. Ever heard of _Universal Basic Income_ ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_basic_income )? Looks like a good step forward to me!
A lot of the jokes are not only lost in translation, they are violently butchered by some quite horrific mistranslations. Artificial Idiocy at its best.
When laughter gets stuck in your throat, political cabaret is good.
kabarett !!
@@pattyfairytale4024 yes
The subtitles of this video are pretty poor, but I really like it when Shady Shae watches Volker Pispkers. A unique match 😀!
And i like it when you make a great comment like this. Cheers
Yeah like "mit vielen Booten" (a lot of boats) = "a lot of messengers" 😅
they are rly poor this time... damn. now i have to make a subtitle for some pispers videos i guess xD
@@Kushenable Looking forward to it 👍
Fat and stupid is a ref. to Laurel and Hardy, in germany they called "Dick und Doof" => "Fat and Stupid"
you understood it perfectly, respect. keep going love your vids.
Ich liebe Volker, finds echt geil das du ihn/ihr feiert. Beste grüße aus Deutschland
Ja geht mir genauso. Hat Pispers doch immer geglaubt, sein Humor würde nichts bewirken...
Keep going brother.
Thank you for watching and trying to get it.
We need people to wake up, to give our children the future they deserve
Pegida was a group who protested against letting migrants and refuges into Germany. Sarazin wrote a bestseller about migration whose title can be roughly translated with "Germany abolishes itself." This is why Pispers said somebody should write a book about migration. Also the comedic duo Laurel & Hardy was known in Germany as "Dick und Doof" which means "Fat and Stupid". This is why Pispers said about Gabriel fat and stupid used to be two people.
The former Football Manager Rainer Calmund was very popular for being big, very big. And there were a lot of jokes about him eating a lot. Therefore endless groth = endlessly getting bigger, talk to Rainer Calmund.
A Manager in German Football is something diffrent. You call Jürgen Klopp a Manager, but he is a coach. In Germany the Manager is only concerned with buisness. Trading players, getting Sponsors and stuff like that
But Rainer Calmund is still alive, so no reason to write about him in the past tense. He is still involved in football, both for various professional clubs and in the media.
@@MrJueKa ja, very much alive. Aber dick ist er nicht mehr.
@@marcusmehner1568 das stimmt ... nach eigenen Aussagen aufgrund von langjährigen diversen Diäten unter ärztlicher Kontrolle, die bei ihm irgendwann dann gewirkt haben und aufgrund einer Magenoperation, auch hat er sich die "Fettschürze" operativ entfernen lassen, die bei übergewichtigen Menschen nach größerem Gewichtsverlust dann entsteht ... aber alles kein einfacher Weg, wie er selber sagt ... er sieht jetzt doch vorteilhafter aus, wenn ich das mal so ausdrücken darf
@@MrJueKa Ja, er lebt noch und zwar hier um die Ecke... Er ist ja extra nach Saarlouis gezogen, weil es in diesem Bundesland das beste Essen (seine Aussage) des Landes gibt. Gebe ich auch recht, französisch angehauchtes Essen in ordentlichen deutschen Portionen. Wenn ich mich nicht täusche haben wir hier auch die höchste Dichte in Deutschland an Sternerestaurants... Also perfekt für Herrn Calmund :)
I love how Pispers conditions people to google stuff and look for specific German politics details, even if the joke is just "he fat lol .
your passion and understanding for this german cabaret is astonishing! In some cases nearly impossible to translate and understand for a "non native". But you got the most important - great respect!!
“We buy things we don't need with money we don't have to impress people we don't like.” Actually this is a quote from the film "Fight club" (1999)
@Jimpossible Bananarchy It does in the german version: „Von dem Geld, das wir nicht haben, kaufen wir Dinge, die wir nicht brauchen, um Leuten zu imponieren, die wir nicht mögen.“
The translation Programm translated "Booten" into messengers. But actually bote/n ->messenger/s and boOte->ships are two different words
Kudos for getting the gist of it despite those lousy subtitles XD
Volker Pispers changes quickly from real talk (the myth of the hard working German) to ironic speech (passages about lazy Romanians). Those quick changes are hard to understand in translation.
I just love everything about your videos: how open-minded you approach the topic, how you immerse yourself into it, how you want to understand it and look it up when you don't understand something, your authentic comments on it, sometimes very honest, sometimes very humorous, how you laugh tears, sometimes even your lashes scratch your eyes. I discovered your channel by chance and love everything about it: the videos you comment on, but especially your reaction about them. I look forward every time you post something new. Keep being who you are. This just had to be said. Greetings from Germany!
Ah Forever, i am not gonna lie this comment sweetened me up! Very much appreciated. Thanks
@@ShaeDerEinzige i co-sign that comment. I really enjoy your open sight on things and the flava you bring with your persona. Keep on reviewing the good thought provoking stuff, buddy :) peace, dj skeli
I guess the subtitles are automatically generated? They gave me Google Translator vibes (He said "Boote" (boats), but it was translated into messenger ("Bote").
Would be an explanation for quite a few other mistakes. Quite a lot lost in translation here.
I was about to say that too.
Contrary to the program "Bis neulich", more specifically "The history of USA and terrorism", which had absolutely precise and well done subtitles, these subtitles are a bit... clumsy. To put it friendly.
@@katb.78 not just "lost", many passages don't make any sense at all in the translation.
The '' I have benn insulted more'' at the beginning refers to the introduction and not to the clapping. The pesenter introduced him, but we do not see the introduction and we do not know what he said.
Hey bro, I really appreciate your joy in our satirical culture! :-)
I too learned my love for Volker 15 years ago, and sucked up 24/7 everything there was to get! It fundamentally changed my live for the better.
If you want some really deep stuff, that scares the sh* out of you, or just some good guys you did not know about, I am happy to supply. :-)
I would even privide the translation to the videos if you want. :-)
Hit me up on insta shadyshae007 with the links
@@ShaeDerEinzige Apparently my reply got lost, so here is the second try! :-) I translated the video I was pitching to you. Is there any way I can send you the transcript? Maybe to your email Adress? ( I do not use Insta or Twitter)
When you think about the fact, that Volker Pispers held this show 7 years or more ago to a German audience. For Germans it got more hard. The social in social in social market economy disappeared slowly since 2000 but with acceleration. Although GDP was rising almost all time despite of financial crisis and Covid, the wealth of 90% of population decreased. For Germany. For the rest of the world it is much more hard.
Those subtitles were really terrible, props to you for still being able to grasp almost all of it!
The first sentence in the beginning about the insult refers to the introduction the other guy gave. He said that Volker Pispers is the "grand old man of German cabaret" or something like that. 😉
3:30 he mentioned Reiner Calmund in regards of eternal growth, because in his active days, he used to become fatter and fatter over the years, until he weighted 180 kilogramms.
🤣🤣🤣
Another misinterpretation: Pispers said "Booten" (boats, ships), the machine understood "Boten" (messengers).
There are several translation errors:
- "Krieg" was translated to "warriors", but means war. The Pdiga did protests against islamic wars (not warriors) on german soil.
- "Strauß's Milliarden" was translated to "a bunch of billions of credit", but whats mean is "a credit of 1.5 billions that was arranged by the politician Franz-Josef Strauß.
- ""Miese" was tranlated to lousy, but whats meant is "loss" - a loss of 750 million Euro was what the West LB (a german bank) called a good day
- "Boote" was translated to messenger, but means "boats" - one day african people will understand there is no point to come with many people in one small boat, then they will come in many boats
Pediga demonstrated against islamic Gotteskrieger, so warriors is correct
@@satchillananda Probably Pediga protested against both, Gotteskrieger (warriors) and Gottesskriege (wars).
But if you google for Pediga in Google pictures you will find them demonstrate with banners against "Gotteskriege" (wars).
The difference is not too important, I just mentioned the wrong translation because Pispers punchline (Pointe) works better with "wars" than with "warriors".
Unfortunately, the video shown has bad English subtitles in places, because the translator misunderstood some German words either acoustically or from their true meaning or did not understand them at all and therefore chose wrong English words.
Only one example at 11:59 = Pispers really says: "We are the only ones in the world who owe everything they have to their own diligence."... but the original short German word "Fleiß" (= substantive of "being diligent") for "diligence" was simply translated with the wrong word "flesh" ( = "Fleisch") only because the German pronunciation of these two original short German words sounds very similar.
We're clearly not ready for auto-translation yet 😅
@@leaness98 aye, so true 👍🥂🙌 ... as far as I know "DeepL Translator" is said to be much better and way more effektive than "Google Translator", but unfortunately probably not completely free ... and for the fact that Google offers a free solution, it's not that bad, but we shouldn't expect much more than it is
"Against wariors of god on german soil" - When Pispers said that he was talking about Pegida, which is an abbreviation for "Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamicisation of the Occident".
Pegida is a right-wing, racist, anti-islamic organisation that years ago was know for regulary organising anti islamic protest marches in parts of Germany.
In the video there is a little translation error. Pispers said "wars" not "warriors"
So Pispers is making fun about Pegida members protesting "Against islamic religious wars on german ground". His point is, that its useless to protest against things nobody wants anyway. He is against bad weather, but hence does not organice protests against bad weather.
Good explanation! Was looking for this comment.
Well it at some point depends on you personal political view. Volker Pispers is very leftist, Pegida was surely critizising Islam, they were conservative, patriotic, but mostly they were not racist. They did have some points e. g. we today have more problems with islam-driven crimes than we had before we opened the borders. But thats a topic for yet another discussion.
@@chrisk7736 Pegida were not criticizing Islam, they didn't know enough about it to criticise it, they just didn't want any Muslim immigrants. Or any immigrants.
@@davidwuhrer6704 I'm pretty sure nobody had a problem with italian, japanese or even russian immigrants. And all you need to know about Islam you can learn either from Saudi Arabia or from ISIS. Good thing most muslims actually don't really practice all the islam ...
@@chrisk7736 Islam has a simple definition: Belief in the one true god (and in his angels and in the resurrection), ritual prayer, paying taxes, ritual fast, and pilgrimage to Mekka if possible. (Different sects collate things differently, but ultimately it all boils down to belief in God (in just the right way) and not being a dick.)
Saudi-Arabia is a monarchy, not a religion. Its laws happen to follow the Wahabite tradition, a sect that most Muslims regard as crazy or even apostasy.
ISIS is interesting: Ostensibly Arab in origin, it insists on using an American acronym as name rather than the equivalent Arabic "Daesh". Video clips advertising ISIS were produced by the Pentagon, which insists those clips were meant "ironically". Founded as a government in northern Iraq after the latest invasion to organise trash collection and schools, its active members were mostly mercenaries, the majority from France. And its laws are mostly the same as those of Saudi-Arabia, which happens to be its biggest financial supporter.
Islam being the second largest religion after Christianity, and Sunni being a bigger religious sect than Catholicism, the vanishing minority that is Wahabite is hardly representative of Islam as a whole, even through they provide 70% of the world's crude oil.
Alle = everyone; Jeder = anyone
The subtitles translate both with everyone
Both of these mean everyone though... There is no distinction between everyone and anyone in german. It's all context.
@@LmanXXL Only if you remove all context and translate with a dictionary in hand. „Der Unterschied zwischen alle und jeder“ is literally what Volker Pispers said. If you translate that with „The difference between everyone and everyone“ it makes no sense.
@@asmodon That's entirely correct. "Alle = everyone; Jeder = anyone" is not though. As you said it's all just dependent on context.
@@LmanXXL And context is all that matters when you translate. One translates meanings not single words.
@@asmodon I think we're talking past each other.
to follow that from just the youtube automatic subtitles... thats not easy :D you have got my respect for that
I like your reaction because you really want to understand Volker Pispers. I am german but to be honest I just knew his name but none of his shows. So thank you for showing me this man and his wisedom.
But there you missed one of the best German socio-political satirists of all time, alongside Dieter Hildebrandt. But fortunately you can watch many of Pisper's and Hildebrandt`s performances here on TH-cam, which I highly recommend, because most of their basic explanations and statements are still up to date, only the people and events are currently different of course.
Personally, I liked Pispers a bit more of the two because he never minced his words and he always ruthlessly laid all socio-political topics and problems on the table, his audience often nearly choked on laughter when he held the satirical mirror in front of their faces.
@@MrJueKa uffff… die Deutschen hier sind manchmal etwas speziell
@@HansJochenUndermaier12221 ja ne is klar 😉
Thx for your video 👍
that bit is heavy on political and cultural references ... Dick und Doof is what Laurel and Hardy were know as in Germany back in the day. Dick meaning fat (thick) and Doof meaning dumb. Pispers is taking the piss of Sigmar Gabriel who was obese at the time (he still is). By saying that Dick & Doof used to be 2 different individuals he is accusing him for not only being fat but stupid too.
It looks like these subtitles are created using Google translator. But you can kind of get the meaning of what Volker is saying with them, even though much of his humour and some meaning is lost in this translation.
With the banners saying (badly translated) "Against the warriors of God on German soil", he's referring to anti-Muslim protests mostly in Eastern Germany using slogans that basically said "Against mujahedin in Germany".
I prefer Deepl. Translator. It´s better in many cases, but not perfect, too.
There is a mistranslation in the subtitles at 5:07 and 5:11 - it should read "day off" instead of Friday
the "Volker Pispers explains the capitalism" scene hits me even after years of first watching this. It is so true!
Respect to dive hard into political cabaret. Especially with Volker Pispers. You got the core-messages right, even being hindered by the more than suboptimal subtitle. +thumbsup+
hey shady, i watched your movies since a few days (many of them), and waited for a day that this videos goes viral, translated around the world. its so funny to see how other countries laugh about this kind of honestly humor. if i can help you with any kind of translation from german to english send message. best regards from germany
Aye! I appreciate this, i hope we go viral one day and my instagram is shadyshae007, you can message me there and we can talk.
Cheers mate
I like your Videos on Volker Pispers 👍
you really get his message and his humor - like to see when you figured out the meaning ... and sometimes it is the same for the audience - they need a few secs to catch-up as well
11:39 is "Fat and stupid" refers to the classic slapstick duo: "Dick (Stan Laurel) and Doof (Oliver Hardy)" - mostly Germans use the "Dick & Doof" as a phrase when someone is so stupid, that he would make it as a star in the Laurel & Hardy slapsticks
20:03 "everyone" and "everyone" - is a bit more like "each and all" - each person could be a lottery-millionare , but not all could.
The comment about Rainer Calmund: He was massively obese by german standards, and looked like one of the landwhales more common in the US. He then made a 180 and lost about 70% of his weight.
So the comment about permanent growth isn't possible/healthy relates to this.
the most sad thing about this all is that people watch this, laugh, applause, leave and everything stays the same ....
Ich liebe die Videos 👍 ( i love these Vids bruv)✌️👍
it is not easy to understand the message without understanding German, but if have to say you are doing a very great job!!👍👍
3:21 Hint for ShadyShae „eeeeeeever growing expansion“… is hard, ask Reiner Calmund“ to try to translate this … or ask Jabba the hut… or Elvis… they ALL GROW over time and tried their best to indefinitely grow 😀
8:01 Hint for ShadyShae: the German.. if something is not broken, then he breaks something (e.g. in WorldWar2 😉) and then build up again
They messed the translation up: Masses of refugees will come with many boats (not: messengers!). In Germany it sounds the same: .. mit vielen Booten (boats), ... mit vielen Boten (messengers). The correct translation: boats!
the translation seemed very off on some parts unfortunately but I am glad you still got most of it and that you are not afraid of going back to read again or look things up.
The automated subtitles are faulty. When Pispers said "Fleiß" for example (diligence) the machine understood "Fleisch" instead and translated this to "flesh", which is pure nonsense.
God bless the space bar!
Ameeeen
Pispers 😍
Me too
@@andreasvonarlt1449 so gut das er die Runde macht!
Thank's for Reaktion🙂 Greetings from Germany.
10:51 … yes, but Tilo Sarazin wrote a book of that „forbidden topic“ … oh wait, that was the joke 😉
The joke about Rainer Calmund in the beginning was related to his growing fatness. He probably was one of the fattest men in Germany until he lost a lots of weight. So he stopped endless growth and it worked.
There are some good arguments in this one. Glad you understood so much of it. Regarding the solution: There may not be infinite resources on Earth, but there are in space. We just need to go get them. It's the only way to have a high living standard for everyone without anyone being exploited.
the quote from the beginning is from the movie fight club btw, great movie with some criticism towards capitalism aswell, just incase you have never seen it
"Dick und Doof (directly translated fat and stupid) waren mal zwei" is a reference to Laurel and Hardy as those where their names on German TV.They used to be two, now they are one=Sigmar Gabriel.
Sarazzin has written a book called: "Deutschland schafft sich ab" against migration from Middle East and Afrika.
I like your Videos. Greetings from Wuppertal with the Schwebebahn (Suspension Railway).
Volker Pispers wants you to start thinking, and he is good at it.
Oh nice, you are even watching stuff with auto subtitles on.
Then I suggest you to watch:
Die Anstalt - S03E02 - Die Robin-Hood-Stiftung (05.04.2016)
Volker Pispers Bis neulich 2010
Volker Pispers - Über Wahlen, die CDU, die SPD und andere Unglücke
3:30 ´´eternal groth´´ referes to Kallmund because of his body size at the time
very bad translation
Yeah, this is always a problem...😕
With "Someone should write a book about it" is a reference to Thilo Sarrazin. He'd wrote a book about migration and says some stupid things in it like: "All jews share one equal genom"
Yes, he also wrote that West Germans are more intelligent than East Germans because of some IQ-Testing the Bundeswehr conducted shortly after reunification.
@@asmodon and some other "national pride" stuff
The annoying part is that personally I have to work hard and earn quite a lot of money.. because otherwise I will be homeless. What a nice solution to the problem of "people aren't working if they don't have to"
more pls
I have an old Voltcraft oscilloscope. When I was looking for instructions. I had to find out that it is a GDR oscilloscope
Oh and about this "against god warriors on german soil" - there is an infamous far-right group called pegida (an anagram for patriotic europeans agains islamisation of the western world or in german: patriotische europäer gegen die islamisierung des abendlandes) and they do lots of protests. The thing he is talking about there is how ridiculous it is that they run around with banners saying "against god-warriors on german soil" stating that its about as ridiculous as protesting against bad weather.
Also about the lottery thing: what he wanted to say is that even though anyone can get rich, not everyone at the same time can get rich. There is a pretty big difference between anyone and everyone, that many people dont realise and confuse one with the other.
Reiner Calmund was infamous for his growing girth.
Recently, he dropped some weight.
Reiner Calmund was famous for being really big. His joke makes fun of him seemingly trying to push how big a human can get haha
Unfortunately this one is translated pretty poorly so that sometimes idioms and their actual meaning get lost. Nevertheless great reaction ;-)
The translation this time was bad. Sorry for you. They mixed up for example ""Bote" and "Boote" meaning "messenger" and "boats". So you must be puzzled to try understanding. Thilo Sarrazin was a German politican, he wrote a book about immigrants. Volker Pispers refers to it at least twice. Maybe you may look him up.
What we should keep in mind, this shows are about 15 to 20 years old, by this time, we use resources compared to 2-5 planets (depending on the country we live in) in half a year so far... . We guzzle 100 million barrel castor oil - every day - each and every day (that equals a barrel in hight of 76000 km) .... just an example ... . We waste billions of tons of food each day ... . We have plastic islands in the oceans that are as big ans Europe and we find plasic particles even in the deep sea an on the most distant mountains ... .
the translation is pretty bad
19:50 - Theres a bad translation: It's the difference between anyone and everyone. (they translated with averyone and everyone)
"fat and stupid" so were Laurel & Hardy (the two comedians from the 50s I think) called in Gemany
In Dutch to say.......Geweldig grappig ik had tranen in mijn ogen van het lachen!
Respect Brother, a free Lesson in History, Economics, Politics and Humanism. Very Hard to understand for You, cuzz even the People over here in Germany do not know a lot of the Things he said. He told the Truth in a very unique Way of a Mixture made out of Sarcasm, Irony and Zynism but thats the only Way not to get crazy knowing all this stuff. See Germany is a hoax in a weird way. Lots of Lies.... Anyway if u want to know something ask me! Kind Regards
Yes I know this times in the GDR - he is soo right.
20:25 more meaningful translation: "...the difference between each one and everyone..."
and a little bit later will "the africans not come with many messages" - but "with many boats"
Be prepared that words like actually and eventually are used in a slightly wrong or old fashioned way. Clearly a German translated the works who does not talk a lot of English with native speakers, but mostly in an international context (like we all do here)
Our languages are so similar, that we tend to just translate in a literal way, we tend to use ‚funny‘ words that are contextually a little but not completely off.
I think it’s beautiful that so many people rn Stan Volker (Pholker)
Rainer Calmund was gaining weight all the time and he got "bigger and bigger" - but this has a double meaning => growth = gain (in the case of Rainer Calmund "weight")
- Laurel and Hardy (was called "fat and stupid " or Dick und Doof" in Germany)=> TV series
Rainer Calmund was known for having gained a whole lot of bodyweight. So he "grew". That's why Pispers mentioned Calmund as an example for growth 🤣
It must be quite hard to try and understand Pispers as a non-native German. He is full of nuances an hidden jokes that even the audience didn't catch at the time.
And even though you got the main message, I'd strongly recommend to do the next one together with somebody form Germany who is like 35 ++ yo.
a lot of what he says is just sarcastic and irony 7:41
its lost in translation and suptitle xD
"anyone in south europe is lazy" is such a line
he talk about Rainer Calmund, because he got in germany fame for eating everything. That is the short description. He was in many TV-Shows and there are so many jokes about Rainer Calmund in germany. The people laugh after this joke ^^.
The reason for Rainer Calmund being mentioned here, is most probably the fact, that this man was known for gaining weight all the time.
26:33 perfect conclusion of it
To give a bit context to the subject of Sigmar Gabriel and "fat and stupid used to be two": this is a reference to the German title of the Stan and Laurel mobiles. This duo ist called "Dick und Doof" which translates to "fat and stupid".
WestLB was a german mortage bank like Fannie Mae which had to be rescued by the state but basically became a bad bank in the aftermath of the 2007 finanical crisis with 2 other parts that were initially deemed salvageable, but they never paid back the recue money due to really bad investments that bordered on crime. It basically went bankrupt and only continued to operate under the name Portigon Financial Services AG.
Wie wahr☺️
I think Pipers was citing a banner paraded by members of PEGIDA (acronym: Patriotische Europäer gegen die Islamierung des Abendlandes or Patriotic Europeans against the islamisation of the occident/Europe in English)
"gegen Gotteskrieger auf deutschem Boden" roughly translates to "against soldiers of God (refers to mujahideen) on German soil".
In conclusion they rally to protest something noone objects to.
"Wir sind die einzigen, die unseren Erfolg unserem Fleiß zu verdanken haben" Not flesh. Fleiß = industriousness/hard work/effort
You are losing quite some context via google translation, but I think you got the core message right. E. g. about the africans coming across the sea he says that one day they are not coming with one boat but with many boats. Google understands "boote" (boats) as "bote" (messenger) so the translations makes no sense. This happens on some points in the video.
Also when he talks about Rainer Calmund and eternal growth he's refering to Rainer Calmund being of enormous overweight. It hat nothing to do with him being a soccer club manager, but it's purely a joke about his size.
The lottery thing is poorly translated. He said that anybody could become a millionaire, but not all of us / everybody. It is possible for all, but only true for a few.
To understand "fat and stupid": The series of Movies with Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy went under the Label of "Dick und Doof" in Germany, the one being fat and the other being stupid. And Sigmar Gabriel is both.
24:17 There is a wrong translation: The German word 'Boot' means boat, the plural 'Boote' means boats and not messengers. "... come with a lot of boats'
This time there actually are errors in the subtitles..
for instance at one point he said "Fleiß", "zeal", but it translated "Fleisch", "flesh", so the message read something like:
"that is the myth about us Germans with our flesh", when it should have been "zealous Germans"
Later there's a part about mediterranean migration and he says:
"At some point they'll realise it's nonsense to get into small Boats one at a time and they'll get into many boats"
but on "boats" it didn't translate "Boote", but "Botschaften" and so it suggested the solution be "the Africans will allcome in messages"...
you should be a lot more confused than you are buy what you're reading, I can tell you that.
The German version makes absolute and utter sense though.
fyi, 'fat and stupid' is a literal translation of Dick und Doof, the german name for the comedy duo Laurel and Hardy
