It’s strange how I’ve seen this exact claim before. How many expats do you know? I know a bunch of expats and there are quite a few Asian people in the expat community.

Not at all :) But I suppose it was obvious I was a tourist
Yes, I didn’t spend a lot of time in Germany but it happened several times. I traveled by train and they claim the train stations are where people do their business
It would at least help if they stop assuming the only reason a foreigner from the free west would come through Germany is to sell weed.
They make you empty your pockets and pat you down.
They look like gangsters claiming to be police, don’t even show a badge until you ask for it, they want all your stuff, like your wallet, to search through it.
At least it takes away one reason for undercover German police to annoy foreigners with their “random” drug tests
People coming over for work/business: expats.
Unemployed people migrating to look for a better life or job: (im)migrants.
That’s how I understood it.
I’m kind of in between. I’m not an expat, but immigrant doesn’t sound right neither. I just call myself a foreigner.
