I am obviously not capable of being objective here, but I always wondered about that stereotype as well. It’s not like the German language has any lack of great authors, poets, philosophers, scientists. German is a versatile language, but I suppose it‘s on us that politics of the last century have led to most depictions of German being about barking a very unrealistic military command tone with borked pronunciation in the role of the bad guys.
I agree it can sound harsh, no doubt
