> Germans are people having a German passport.
I don't care at all about ethnicity, but that sentence is part of the problem. Lawfully spoken it's a tautology, but that's not the concern people have. They are concerned that the German culture get erased within a few generations, because to many people with a too different cultural background enter the society. That's a legitimate concern nobody really wants to address.
Gotta keep German culture pure.... now where have I heard that before?

That's how German culture as it is was created in the first place. And that's how the future German culture will be created, ad infinitum.

It seems to me that you do not know what ethnicity means.

I addressed that by saying there has never been a coherent German culture
