I have seen so many posts about Berghain - How to get into Berghain - Behind the doors of Berghain - Berghain the most secretive night club...
Honestly...this is giving me headaches!
the latest post I've seen was this one :

Yes, some people actually manages to film inside of Berghain...And as much as I somehow get a very nice cozy homy feeling whilst watching those videos, it upsets me to a whole new level.
Berghain is a place where people can go and enjoy themselves, dance to amazing techno music with the best speakers, with tolerant and nice and lovely people. Berghain is perceived as a place full of love and happiness.
Of course it is not the easiest club to get in, but simply because the bouncers need to have a certain feeling about the people going to Berghain...
A lot of people going to Berghain leave their lives with their jackets and bags at the coat rooms, and just have a couple hour of pure joy and happiness! Meeting new people, dancing their sorrows away, dancing their troubles away, hanging out with great similar minded people... And all this in FULL PRIVACY!
So why would people dare going into this club where every body can be themselves - gays, straight, trans...whatever you are - and try to expose those people ?
Some people in Berghain maybe have really high valued professional lives - would you want to jeopardise that just for a couple of seconds of fame with your 11sec. video on youtube?
I am really upset about all those videos people are posting from inside Berghain, as I happen to got to enjoy a place where you party without having people taking selfies everywhere or snap chatting every little thing that is happening... a place where its about the music, where the biggest techno DJs such as Marcel Dettmann, Ben Klock, Kobosil, Len Faki, Oscar Mulero ... just come and play for people who really enjoy the music and have a real passion and love for this music...
For people who end up being so passionate about it, they get inspired to produce their own videos about how they dance in Berghain and lose their souls, or about what they feel whilst dancing...
I can understand that it is a mysterious place after all, for people who have only heard about it but never been inside... but on the other hand... Respect is something that every body deserves, and that the Berghain policy as well as the Berghain goers deserve...
