Bump?
another case, police searched the home of an elderly wheelchair-bound woman who had called Merz a “little Nazi,” and confiscated the phone she used to communicate with doctors and caregivers.
The number of complaints makes Merz “one of the most sensitive politicians” in Germany’s history, Welt am Sonntag said.
A lawyer representing one of the defendants described the investigation as “a complete overreaction of the justice system.”
Merz’s approval rating has dropped to 22%, a record low, according to a recent Forsa poll. The coalition government has struggled with the cost-of-living crisis and has been marred by bitter infighting over immigration, as well as pension and military service reforms.
What is the future then? I don't know a thing about politics in Europe beyond a few things I heard, like that there are a lot of green eco parties that have actual influence, that every ruling party is leftist just like the rest and that there are barely a few parties that proclaim to believe in individualistic ideology but they have no support and they are secretly leftists.
I mean, would anything even change if candidate from a different party will take the charge? I don't know any, maybe there are better alternatives among left parties.
>What is the future then?
What I can tell about the future that it's not bright.
Right now probably in the majority of EU countries this is the situation:
The most popular party is either a center-right party which slides towards the left or a far-right party. The third most popular is some tanky. The popularity of the first is never enough for a simple majority and they have to form a coalition. If the far-right is the most popular, then noone is willing to form a coalition with them, so always the left leaning center-right one forms with weak liberal and social-democrat parties and the strong tankies.
However the difference between the far-right and the tanky parties are not much. They all "EU-sceptic" and hate the policies of the center-right and social-democrats. The difference:
- far-right is labeled fascist, and they are ardent zionists;
- tankies are labeled as terrorists, and loves Palestine.
But because their voters just can't stomach the failed and insane policies of the center parties the tankies always torpedo the coalition they are in. For example France consumed eight governments within one year.
Yes, there are green parties which seen skyrocketing popularity about 8-4 years ago, but they are shrinking because when they got into the governments they proved to be utter idiots.
They generally hate European farmers and they are killing European agriculture with cutting subsidies and enacting bureaucratic regulations that makes producing food expensive, while they are importing food from outside the EU where there are no regulations so the production is cheap as fuck, see Ukraine and Brazil. With these products which are essentially contain stuff - like chemicals, hormones, GMO - that are banned for EU farmers to use European producers can't compete.
The other field is energy ofc. They shut down everything fossil and nuclear, and want to plaster everything with solar panels. They ban Russian energy, but buy US LNG and Chinese solar panels, and they call this energy independence. We can't produce solar panels ourselves because the whole process is extremely polluting - but they are happy if someone else pollutes the globe and buy their products as long as its not them.
Solution? I don't see any. I would be glad if we had just one group that is:
- not insane;
- not too corrupt;
- not a zionist;
- not a muslim.
Are there any? No.
