I saw a chance to academically cooperate with an university in Dresden. I wanted to learn more about the city and found this: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-50266955 (Sorry for a BBC link).

Information says that Dresden is far-right leaning. I am a Pole, and given that neo-nazi sentiments arise in Germany (e.g. the popularity of AfD), I decided to do not apply for this cooperation. Maybe academics are statistically less far-right and neo-nazi, maybe I use “collective responsibility”, but this simply disgust me.
