There's just no economic incentive to do so. (yet?)
Was ist mit der Lesekompetenz der Leute los?
Der Artikel setzt sich von Anfang an kritisch mit dem Buch auseinander. Natürlich wird wiedergegeben, was die Autorin inhaltlich und sprachlich so von sich gibt, aber schon der erste Absatz schließt mit den Worten "nicht nur das wirft Fragen auf".
Das Wort "Gleichschaltung" wird auf den NS-Kontext referenziert, ideologische Vorredner (Götz Kubitschek) werden zur Einordnung der Thesen identifiziert und es wird immer klar markiert, dass es sich bei den kruden Aussagen um Worte der Buchautorin handelt. Die Distanz des Autors ist durchgängig erkennbar.
Natürlich schafft so ein Artikel immer auch Aufmerksamkeit, und Leute die dem Gedankengut nahe stehen können ungeachtet dessen auf die Idee kommen, dass es sich für sie lohnen könnte das Buch zu kaufen um ihre Meinung bestätigt zu finden. Aber mir ist vollkommen schleierhaft, wie man auf die Idee kommen kann, der Autor des Artikels würde dieses Werk hier irgendwie positiv bewerben.
Wenn in Bayern im Woid ein Baam umfällt, macht er dann "Zäfix! Sakrament!", auch wenn keiner da ist um es zu hören?
Wegen der Endung -ing, gell?

I agree, there's definitely room for improvement.
It seems rare, that the whole train station was closed (probably not one of the bigger cities) and you must have stayed rather late, while christmas markets usually already open in the afternoon (or even earlier) and the sun sets early in their season, so there's plenty of time to enjoy them while they are most beautiful (at night) and still make it home by train in a lot of places.
That being said, in more places than you'd expect, you won't find convenient train connections after midnight, if at all. That makes using public transit almost useless for partying. I remember living in a somewhat rural area as a young partygoer and if I wanted to go to the city for partying, the choice was to either go home before the city folk even really started going, or keep partying until the clubs closed and then hang around with the punks at the railroad station to wait for the first train in the morning. Having a designated driver and going by car was the usual option.
I once accidentaly shorted the connector cables of a battery pack with 4 AA batteries. It very quickly generated enough heat to set the insulation of the cable on fire.
Don't underestimate short circuits!
Yep definitely a jackdaw.
The whole schtick about 'counts as a raven' is a bit whack, because those terms aren't really hardcore defined. Those are colloquial terms and depending on where you are in the world and who you're talking to, colloquial terms may refer to different species altogether. And when you put different languages into the mix, seemingly equivalent terms may suddenly agglomerate different species.
When you say raven, I as a European, think of the rather huge Corvus corax. But there are other big corvids in other parts of the world, that may qualify for the word. When I say the equivalent word for raven or crow in my native language (German), it very much depends on the bird knowledge of the person I'm talking to, whether they understand this to mean a specific species or just a general term for all black birds of the Corvidae family. Then some people distinguish ravens and crows, even tough there are 3 species that would qualify as a crow, one of which would be called a rook in English.
That's why scientific names are useful. That being said: you've got a beautiful picture of a jackdaw there. (Corvus monedula)
Edit: Crap. I just now read the comment thread about "Here's the thing" and feel like I just played into that. Gotta read up about that now.
Lucky you!
You're missing the point. The risk might not be very high on average, but if they don't want to end up on the streets, regular people still have to kind of function inside the system somehow and continuously work for regular income. The will to survive is part of what drives them to do so.
Billionaires on the other hand, wouldn't even have to lift a finger to be able to live comfortably for the rest of their lives. On the contrary, they'd have to try really hard to get rid of all that wealth. Major fuck-ps and intentional money burning excluded, the chance that they end up having trouble getting their basic needs fulfilled is miniscule. THAT is the difference.
In that case, I guess it's time to get educated about Linux. At least to the point, where you understand, that what I'm referring to, should actually be called "GNU/Linux".
*"I recognize Google" is also not Google itself, but specifically the Chrome Logo that refers to Chrome OS in this case.
Dazu kommt bei facebook noch, dass der Feed zu mehr als 50% mit irrelevantem Clickbait, sogenannten "Vorschläge für dich"-Posts besteht.
Ich nutze das noch um mit einigen Bekannten und alten Freunden Kontakt zu halten, deswegen schau ich ab und zu rein. Aber die Feed-Funktion ist wirklich unbenutzbar geworden, und Kommentare zu lesen ohne nen Eimer Augenbleiche dereit stehen zu haben, war schon lange unverantwortlich.

That's not a point I'm trying to make. Although my idea of Döner Kebap includes specific vegetable/salad ingredients, to my understanding the defining step was putting it in a portable loaf of bread, instead of having kebap on a plate. And as another commenter said, that idea might have been re-imported. But neither was I around when it first appeared, nor am I a Döner Historian of any capicity, so I have to rely on the sources I read. I'm also not passionate enough about the topic to do a lot more research. But no matter it's origins: Döner holds a very special place in Germany's culinary environment and that's thanks to Turkish immigration history. So it's definitely a significant food in this country.
