People who were angry about that were also angry about: Germany 9/11 (which is on 9th of November), 1989 the wall falls due to the speaker for the central committee saying: "Everyone is allowed to cross the border without applying for visa first, [after being questioned about when it starts he says] to my knowledge immediate, now."
This led to many people visiting West Berlin, breaking down the wall and the sad part: The annexation of the East German part to the BRD even though 3/4 of the GDR people didn't want that to happen but just a more democratic socialism.
The link is one that is okay, but there is vast research, Of course the public conscious, the parliamentary conscious shifted and the "first free elections" (read the first with mass advertised elections semi Brexit style) were counted as marker that the unification was the goal of the people. However the joining of the GDR into the FRG was a thing that happened cause of political pressures, from the parliament/executive and the big players in the cold war - make no mistake here.
The people who were for democracy or democratic socialism - were sidelined.
Wait this post isn't funny it's just sad :rage-cry:

Link? Genuinely curious
Here's the actual AP article about it from 1989 and here's a 2019 article about how a majority of modern East Germans still feel that reunification was a mistake.
