It is remotely true. Waving German flags at soccer games was essentially non-existent. Germans are more likely to identify as European rather than German, compared to other EU nations. If you ask Europeans "is your culture superior" people like Greeks say yes but people like Germans say no.
A good example would be the UK or France .They believe they are top dogs but, by US standards, they are impoverished.

No, they are not.
Median wealth is way better. and that doesn't even take into account that you can get way better housing/healtcare/whatever for less money.
What are you even talking about?
Huh?
Soccer games are like the only* socially accepted events where you can proudly bring out a german flag without looking like a nationalist. At world championship the whole city is a sea of black-red-gold.
I'm quite surprised.
Tho I'm not a soccer fan and therefore don't know how that looks abroad.
