@schratze I just realized that this can have two readings. One is: somebody hates Germans to the point of wanting them to sink in the quicksand. The other is: somebody hates everybody else so much that they want to keep them away by pretending there is quicksand when in fact there is not.
@oblomov @schratze Or: To keep a German from doing something you dont want them to do, encourage them.
@Zugschlus @schratze given our stereotypes on the Germans, I would never expect reverse psychology to work with them.
