they're insecure because you might show them up for not knowing about basic german literature so they try to deflect by criticizing your pronunciation.
the average german doesn't know shit about faust or goethe or schiller

Counterpoint: Why German Culture Isn't “Fake or Shallow”

>Deep Intellectual Legacy

Germany produced some of the most influential thinkers in history — Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Marx, etc.
In music: Bach, Beethoven, Wagner. This isn't shallow — it's cultural bedrock for the West.

>Cultural Restraint ≠ Lack of Depth

German society emphasizes privacy, formality, and order — which can come off as “cold” or “fake” to outsiders.
But beneath that formality is often a strong emphasis on loyalty, family, craftsmanship, and local traditions.

>Regional Identity is Huge

Bavaria vs. Berlin vs. Saxony — each has distinct traditions, dialects, foods, and customs.
People outside Germany often see “Germany” as one uniform place, but it's highly regionalized — and proud of it.

>Post-WWII Identity is Complicated

Much of modern German culture is built on reconstruction, both physically and morally.
The intense historical self-criticism might look like artificial humility to outsiders, but it's part of a deeply reflective cultural project.

>Why Someone Might Perceive German Culture as "Artificial"

Modern efficiency-focused identity (autobahn, punctuality, engineering) can feel corporate or sterile.
Tourist exposure: If your only reference point is big cities or Oktoberfest, you’re getting the Disneyland version.
Formality and social reserve can come off as “inauthentic” to people from more emotionally expressive cultures.

The Bigger Picture:

Labeling any national culture as “fake” or “mile wide, inch deep” usually says more about the observer’s lens than the culture itself. Every nation has shallow and deep aspects, public and private identities, and historical baggage.

If you're reacting to a specific part of German pop culture, politics, or social behavior — it’s fair to criticize specifics. But dismissing the whole thing? That’s low-resolution thinking.
