When I posted I thought about a translation but drew a blank. It’s somewhere between conservative, law abiding, rules oriented but also community oriented. But everybody has their own connotations so there is no real definition. Generally it’s used a derogatory term. Nobody calls themself a Spießbürger.

- Ididntdothis 7y agoA "tool" is something else. there is no equivalent in the US. It's really really hard to translate stereotypes from one country to another. There are a lot of US stereotypes that you can't translate to Germany either.
