One explanation for the irrational drive to close pubs always first of all: Don’t want too many people selected for their lack of anxiety over Corona to exchange too many ideas among themselveshttps://twitter.com/eugyppius1/status/1376449486566866953 …

well, this is how you can tell I don't have any friends, because the way I see it inviting someone to your house is about as difficult as asking them out for drinks and if you're looking for "selection effects," you're not exactly going to find an intellectual bunch at the bar
Inviting people to your home (also subject to heavy restrictions in Germany) is more intimate; bars & restaurants are an intermediate space suitable for work colleagues and casual acquaintances. Also in Germany, pubs & beer gardens are a near cultural universal.

this is definitely a cultural difference. there's camaraderie between strangers there from what I understand. I figured you were another mildly-introverted american undergraduate, my mistake.
