Protest flyers what are they protesting about?

  Living in Berlin I'd guess that people are protesting about the gentrification.

    And this is part of what makes Berlin and specifically Kreuzberg charming and unique. Google already has an office in Mitte where it is not out of place. I really don't like the ideas of these giants co-opting start-up spaces. Once companies have reached the FB and Google size they are kind of the antithesis of start ups. This just feel like they are building "right of first refusal acquisition" spaces. I realize this sounds curmudgeonly but I feel like their money and influence in these spaces encourages building acquisition targets rather than encouraging people to build their own Google and Facebooks.

  Berliners are in general not fans of big corporate developments. The city's fabric revolves around local holes-in-the-wall and mixed residential neighbourhoods.
