      The phrase “Sprich deutsch, du Hurensohn” (“Speak german, you son of a whore”) has evolved from an insult to somewhat of an insider meme in german subreddits. It was an answer to english comments flooding german subreddits and making communication difficult.

      And now we basically can call anyone a Hurensohn and it now counts as transformative art lol
