Yes, there were even special procedures put in place to tune down the publicly visible racism to appear more likeable during the Olympics.

See this article for example. I'll post a translation below this.

Weird, I've heard of many people's grandfathers that flew there quite often during that time.

My motto while I was living in an urban area. I found that I could ride my bike right up to in front of my office window after cutting a little brush on the building corner and from that day on I'd do that, knock on the window and climb right into my office chair from my bike saddle if a coworker was already there. Most satisfying parking situation in my professional life so far.

Wird von denen keinen aufhalten. Die ballern ja so durch die Stadt in der Überzeugung, sie seien besser als alle anderen und könnten nie einen Unfall haben oder geschnappt werden. Damit sind die Strafen für die paar die verunfallen, ein oder zwei Jahre später für die Prävention vermutlich eher nicht wirksam. Da hilft vermutlich eher die Autos zeitnah zu Würfeln zu pressen.

Then they set their desk on fire and go on strike for the rest of the day.

Ah, that explains why I was cast into this existence last week after chilling in the void for eons, which I was actually pretty fine with, but here we are now, toast crumbs, income tax and all that. Thanks I guess.

So far the guy has fallen all the way to the top and I don't see a trend change at the moment.

That sounds like a great idea but then it turns out that the backup vehicle also has a set of summer tires, a set of winter tires, different motor oil than your main vehicle, different gearbox oil than your main vehicle and suddenly your basement is full and you're working on two cars. No problem though, because you could just get a cheap backup vehicle....

I have five because of this. I need help.
