I have a lot of questions. Why is this important? Do we need to be divided in Europe because of this? Actually, as a (not German) European citizen, why should I even care? Is the economy that important for me as a citizen? How does it effect my household budget? What is even the metric for the European economy?

First off, it's a load of bullshit that Germany's economy is tanking. Second, yeah it is kinda important, but it's just a fucking stretch of slightly lower productivity after a massive increase due to catching up what was missed out on during Covid.

Fuck these alarmists. They just want the workers to maintain this bullshit productivity, which has sent many people into a burnout.
