Inaccurate for (some of) Aarhus, Denmark. This is what some of our pedestrian crossing lights look like:

Germany also has a couple exceptions. The two that immediately come to mind are the Ampelmann (traffic light man) in Berlin and the Mainzelmännchen in Mainz.

the Ampelmann is not just in Berlin. It was standard across all of the GDR, but then they thought a bland sticj figure is more representative of peoples identity in capitalism so now more and more lights inthe east also have that generic sign

Huh, didn't know that. Booooo, I like the Ampelmann!

I think that's to loot and pillage.

Nah, we don't do that anymore. Any looting done in today's Denmark is the American way: multinational corporations and politicians pretending to be benevolent while being reverse Robin Hoods.
