The Article is a bit misrepresenting. It compares former Eastern Germany regions today to England today. Thank you very much @SatanicNotMessianic@lemmy.ml for posting the University Press Release
What a misleading title! England slightly behind Germany.
England slightly behind worst regions of Germany would be more apt but yeah the title is severely misleading.
When you know the current status of such services in Germany, this isn’t reassuring in the slightest!
That’s… Something else.
To be fair East Berlin was among the best places under Communism, due to being the capital, the GDR being rich compared to other Soviet satellites and the competition with West Berlin.
So, good for them (England), I guess?
Cold war era East Berlin wasn’t particularly bad when it came to public services to be fair.
Yeah, all you needed to do to get three hots and a cot is say you don’t like the government, and these guys just show up and give you a ride.
It’s entirely possible to condemn an oppressive regime without pretending their trains were bad too.
Yeah, I know. I was making a joke. I loves me some trains. I was watching White Christmas last night and trains feature heavily and it looks like such a civilized mode of travel.
The glory of public transit
Though at least they have the Data Grab Bill which promises to bring the police’s surveillance capabilities closer to Stasi level.
Here’s a link to the university press release on the study, which contains the actual study.
Thank you very much 👍
That’s what happens when you win a world war
The wrong Germany lost 😔
