In either case it’s concerning that when the Conservatives fielded their most far-right leader so far, their share of the seats went up.

It’s not surprising at all, the 2 conservative parties in Germany are the most far-right and second most far-right parties. They host politicians who are grandsons and granddaughters of real Nazi SS officers (like the leader of the AfD: Alice Weidel, her grandpa was directly responsible for thousands of civilian deaths as military judge and prosecuter and later chief military judge for Adolf fucking Hitler. They copy their talking points one to one and would love to see people dissappear, who are not looking like them. Conservatives, for the most part, are atrociously far-right.

rooting for you aussies. Love and strength from Germany <3

my brother in christ, all western european countries are socialist welfare states with a capitalistic market. Media wants you to believe that, what we have is communism, but socialism is so far off Marxism / Communism, as Turbo-capitalism is off of socialism. Beat the red scare and don’t carry on their dumb talking points. Socialism is the way to go

oh no, imagine the horror! Americans will never break our strong employee protection laws in the EU and europe in general. Keep your autocracy to your GDP-loving-self ;)

the only I thing I am still shocked about is how little courts seem to care
