So these are Tom from the UK and Nils from Germany.

ื’ื ื”ื ืœื ื”ื›ื™ืจื• ื–ื” ืืช ื–ื”,

01:16
And so they met on the very spot where football roots were invented,

ืื– ื”ื ื ืคื’ืฉื• ื‘ื“ื™ื•ืง ื‘ืžืงื•ื ืฉื‘ื• ื”ื•ืžืฆืื• ืฉื•ืจืฉื™ ื”ื›ื“ื•ืจื’ืœ,

ื‘ืฉื“ื” ื›ืœืฉื”ื• ื‘ืงื™ื™ืžื‘ืจื™ื“ื’'.

ื•ื”ื ืœื ื”ืชื•ื•ื›ื—ื• ืขืœ ื›ื“ื•ืจื’ืœ,

22
84186
1881
ืืœื ืขืœ ื”ื‘ืจืงื–ื™ื˜.
01:26
And after talking for many hours about this contentious topic,
23

ื•ืื—ืจื™ ืฉื”ื ื“ื™ื‘ืจื• ื‘ืžืฉืš ืฉืขื•ืช ืจื‘ื•ืช ืขืœ ื”ื ื•ืฉื ื”ืฉื ื•ื™ ื‘ืžื—ืœื•ืงืช ื”ื–ื”,

(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
01:41
So in spring 2019,
27
101163

ืื– ื‘ืื‘ื™ื‘ 2019,
01:46
more than 17,000 Europeans from 33 countries

01:55
Thousands crossed their borders to meet a stranger with a different opinion,

ืืœืคื™ื ื—ืฆื• ืืช ื”ื’ื‘ื•ืœ ื›ื“ื™ ืœื”ื™ืคื’ืฉ ืขื ืื“ื ื–ืจ ื‘ืขืœ ื“ืขื” ืฉื•ื ื”,

02:05
Now, talking about politics amongst people with different opinions
32

ื“ื™ื‘ื•ืจื™ื ืขืœ ืคื•ืœื™ื˜ื™ืงื” ื‘ื™ืŸ ืื ืฉื™ื ื‘ืขืœื™ ื“ืขื•ืช ืฉื•ื ื•ืช

has become really difficult,

ื ื”ืคื›ื• ืœืขื ื™ื™ืŸ ืงืฉื” ืžืื•ื“,

not only in Europe.
34

ืœื ืจืง ื‘ืื™ืจื•ืคื”.
02:14
Families are splitting, friends no longer talk to each other.
35

ืžืฉืคื—ื•ืช ืžืชืคืฆืœื•ืช, ื—ื‘ืจื™ื ืžืคืกื™ืงื™ื ืœื“ื‘ืจ ื–ื” ืขื ื–ื”.
02:17
We stay in our bubbles.

1508
ื›ืœ ืื—ื“ ื ืฉืืจ ื‘ื‘ื•ืขื” ืฉืœื•.
02:19
And these so-called filter bubbles are amplified by social media,
37
139742

ื•ื‘ื•ืขื•ืช ื”ืกื™ื ื•ืŸ ื”ืืœื” ืžื•ืขืฆืžื•ืช ื‘ื™ื“ื™ ื”ืจืฉืชื•ืช ื”ื—ื‘ืจืชื™ื•ืช,
02:24
but they are not, in the core, a digital product.
38
144571

ืื‘ืœ ื‘ืžืงื•ืจืŸ ื”ืŸ ืื™ื ืŸ ืชื•ืฆืจ ื“ื™ื’ื™ื˜ืœื™.
02:28
The filter bubble has always been there.

ื‘ื•ืขืช ื”ืกื™ื ื•ืŸ ืชืžื™ื“ ื”ื™ืชื” ืฉื.

It's in our minds.

ื”ื™ื ื ืžืฆืืช ื‘ืชื•ืš ื”ืจืืฉ ืฉืœื ื•.

As many studies repeatedly have shown,
41
152963
3414
ื›ืžื• ืฉืžื—ืงืจื™ื ืจื‘ื™ื ื”ืจืื• ืฉื•ื‘ ื•ืฉื•ื‘,
02:36
we, for example, ignore effects that contradict our convictions.
42

ืื ื—ื ื•, ืœืžืฉืœ, ืžืชืขืœืžื™ื ืžืขื•ื‘ื“ื•ืช ืฉื ื•ื’ื“ื•ืช ืืช ื”ืืžื•ื ื•ืช ืฉืœื ื•.
02:42
So correcting fake news is definitely necessary,
43
162696

ืื– ืชื™ืงื•ืŸ ืคื™ื™ืง ื ื™ื•ื– ื”ื•ื ืฆืขื“ ื”ื›ืจื—ื™,

to rethink itself.

ืœื—ืฉื•ื‘ ืขืœ ืขืฆืžื” ืžื—ื“ืฉ.
02:52
Fortunately, according to at least some research,
46

ืœืžืจื‘ื” ื”ืžื–ืœ, ืœืคื—ื•ืช ืœืคื™ ื—ืœืง ืžื”ืžื—ืงืจื™ื,
02:56
there may be a simple way to get a new perspective:

ืขื ืžื™ืฉื”ื• ืฉื“ืขืชื• ืฉื•ื ื” ืžืฉืœื›ื.

It enables you to see the world in a new way,

ื“ืจืš ื”ืขื™ื ื™ื™ื ืฉืœ ืžื™ืฉื”ื• ืื—ืจ.

Now, I'm the editor of "ZEIT ONLINE,"

ืื ื™ ื”ืขื•ืจืš ืฉืœ Zeit Online,

03:22
And we started what became "Europe Talks" as a really modest editorial exercise.
54

As many journalists,

1511
ื›ืžื• ื”ืจื‘ื” ืขื™ืชื•ื ืื™ื,
03:29
we were impressed by Trump and by Brexit,

ื”ื•ืฉืคืขื ื• ืžื˜ืจืืžืค ื•ืžื”ื‘ืจืงื–ื™ื˜,

and Germany was getting divided, too, especially over the issue of migration.

03:38
So the arrival of more than a million refugees in 2015 and 2016
58
218278

ืื– ื”ื’ืขืชื ืฉืœ ื™ื•ืชืจ ืžืžื™ืœื™ื•ืŸ ืคืœื™ื˜ื™ื ื‘-2015 ื•-2016

ืฉืœื˜ื” ื‘ื“ื™ื•ืŸ ื‘ืžื™ื“ืช ืžื”.
03:46

ื•ื›ืฉื—ืฉื‘ื ื• ืขืœ ื”ื‘ื—ื™ืจื•ืช ื”ืžืชืงืจื‘ื•ืช ืืฆืœื ื• ื‘-2017

we definitely knew that we had to reinvent the way we were dealing with politics.

ืื– ื›ื™ืื” ืœื—ื ื•ื ื™ื ื“ื™ื’ื™ื˜ืœื™ื™ื,

ื•ื”ื—ืœื˜ื ื• ืœื‘ื“ื•ืง ืืช ื–ื”

ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืžืžืฉ ืคืฉื•ื˜.
04:29
We called it "Deutschland spricht" -- "Germany Talks" --

ืงืจืื ื• ืœื–ื” "ื’ืจืžื ื™ื” ืžื“ื‘ืจืช" --

ื•ื”ืชื—ืœื ื• ืืช ื–ื” ื‘ืžืื™ 2017.

ืฉื™ื“ื›ื ื• ื’ื ื—ื ืขื ื›ืœืชื•,

128
479815
1569
ืื– ื›ื›ืœืœ ื‘ืกื™ืกื™,

ืื•ืœื™ ื—ื•ืฅ ืžื–ื›ื•ื™ื•ืช ื ืฉื™ื,
