    Well, buckle up because they have no reason to dissolve the government and will keep running things into the ground. Quite possibly until 2029 when things will get really ugly, I assume.

    Damn, that’s crazy, but the solution is kind of simple if you really think about it. First, we’re going to give 5 billion to the auto industry.

      Don’t forget another billion to the coal industry. Coal is the future! Sweet, sweet coal…

          Man I swear these nuclear fetiscists. That is an entirely different problem. And the parties on the right still want nuclear back.

          It ain’t happening for many reasons.

            Nuclear has been on aggressive influence operations on social media for near two decades now. They’ve won over a bunch of half wits and low information people to their side. As if we could trust these people and our governments of this cursed decade to regulate them safely.

    Sometimes I wonder if 90% of the population just got 18 and voted for the first time. I mean, what did they expect? They got exactly what they voted for, they are still dissatisfied. That makes no sense in my eyes.

      To be fair Merz lied a lot campaigning (shocker, I know) but one of those lies was about taking debt which is extremely unpopular among the uniformed voters who think of debt as a cardinal sin that immediately destroys any country. That‘s why even his boomer voters hate him.

      55.1% of the votes were for parties, which are not part of the government(5% hurdle) and the turn out was only 82.5%. So 63% of did not actually vote for the current government. Then a bunch of people just voted conservative, because when they governed the last time Germany was doing well economically. Seriously the Greens took over the ministry for economics and Germany had the biggest drop in real wages since WW2.

      If everyone would use “Wahl-o-Mat” before voting, we would have a different situation… but in germany, we vote the same party again and again, it doesn’t matter what they do… 🙄

      We should make Wahl-o-Mat mandatory for voting

    And they refuse to tax wealth because approval ratings mean nothing if people will just vote for another party (the nazi party) that won’t tax the rich and their wealth. It’s all the same to them. If there were a big slide to the left-wing parties, boy would there be a problem (for the rich uber-wealthy).
