Lol I just saw a group in my town was planning a "volkswalk". After giving it the biggest sideeye ever, I looked it up, and they're a harmless hobby group that encourages people to go on walks, inspired by the German movement in the 60s-70s. In conclusion, Germans be walkin

Germans doing things together in large numbers do be unsettling

As long as they aren't in step...

I guess it's sometimes called volksmarchen in German, which isn't ominous at all

Everything sounds ominous in German, like "Happy walk of friendly people" is

Glücklicher Spaziergang friedlicher Menschen

I'd translate friendly as freundlich not as friedlich. Friedlich I'd translate to peaceful.

volk just means people. So its a "people's walk." Volkspartei would be people's party. German is a neat language. I like their word sandwiches and accents.
