  • Aluhutaufsetz

    Die Union hat mit Absicht gegen März gestimmt. Dann wird der SPD die Schuld in die Schuhe geschoben (Dolchstoß 2.0) und man muss leider leider mit der AfD koalieren, weil anders keine Regierung zustandekommen kann.

  • Gut, gut, er hatte seine Chance. Jetzt lasst die Löwen 'rein!

  • Being new to German politics I was shocked how obvious it was that Merz was not someone working for the betterment of Germans but for political power - and he is still successful in his party.

    I also don't understand why the country has fallen into this belief that the squabbling of the last coalition has caused AFD to be successful. I think it's incredibly clear that the FDP sabotaged the coalition from the start - people should be calling for the removal of the FDP at the federal level for what they did (and thankfully they were punished in this last election). But why we didn't go back to giving progressives more power and another chance I don't understand - it was the one conservative party that undermined them. Instead we gave more power to conservatives who are the real cause for the rise of the AFD.

    The only cure to the AFD is to shrink wealth I equality and a continued push for pro-worker progressive policies. Improve the trains, improve our green energy, regulate our businesses so they have higher quality bars to reach, protect the workers, tax the ultra wealthy, tax landlords out of existence so a working German can afford their flat or their home, support farmers, hold media accountable for misinformation, and protect us from foreign interference.

    We need more actions that Die Linke would endorse and less actions that the CDU would, because fundamentally the CDU are pro-corporation and anti-worker and that's the heart of the rise of fascism - a decline in living standards brought on by corrupt politicians bleeding the public coffers for the betterment of their corporate friends.

    And we just witnessed this, they paid for corporate contracts with debt when they could have paid for it with increased taxes on the ultra-wealthy.
