Bruh germany really be like:
#german stuff#for context:#at german christmas markets hot cocoa with a shot of rum is quite a common drink that is known under the name 'lumumba'#it is apparently named after a congolese politician from the 50s who played a big role in getting congo to be independent from belgium#(only learned that today btw lol)#and now the city of frankfurt is advocating for the people at their christmas markets selling the stuff to rename the drink#cause apparently the fact that the drink has a shot of rum in it is racist because the politician it is named after got shot 💀#like bruh whenI saw that headline I though it might be sth about cocoa (so a brown drink) being named after a black guy being racist but#this is somehow even more 🤡
