Sarcasm is difficult to understand when crossing any language barrier, but yes it is a popular stereotype that the Germans have little sense of humour. I work with several german clients and they don't put up with anything let's put it that way. Just Google it.
Sarcasm is totally negative and disrespectful. It comes from the word in Greek meaning to tear the flesh.. How could anything that is meant to deride, mock, ridicule, scorn or show contempt for another person be considered good manners? So, anyone who says that sarcasm is neutral or harmless is deluded.
