Look at how often we've elected the CDU - a party known for lobbyism and corruption; a party that keeps kicking downwards in order to benefit those upwards. We were never smart.

Smart? They did elect an Austrian house painter posing as a geostrategic genius once...

Adolf Hitler was not directly elected to the position of leader of Germany. Instead, he was appointed Chancellor on January 30, 1933, by President Paul von Hindenburg through legal political maneuvers, following significant Nazi party gains in parliamentary elections. While his party was the largest in parliament, Hitler never held a majority in a free election.

All funded by the same billionaires that fucked on the United States.

Every fucking country is fucked at this point

Yep. Military psy-ops are the standard now. Propaganda works.

I think the choice to have her as the leader of AfD is intentional. If someone claims AfD is homophobic or racist they can point at her as a counterargument. "If we are racist/homophobic, how could we then have a lesbian leader married to a Sri Lankan?" In a way it's quite smart no? I don't see how this is stupid.

Before someone comments on this I have to say I don't support the AfD. I'm only speaking about the choice of party leader for the purpose of dismissing racist and homophobic accusations.

Yes, her sole purpose is to serve as a token. When she isn't needed anymore, they'll dispose of her. The AfD will have its Night of the long Knives.

Not that it matters to the supporters. They’re all MAGAts, however that’s spelled in German.

Who says we are smart?

Germans have a good international reputation as engineers. Oh and good at making beer, which is possibly more important.

Both have not been really true for quite some time now, sadly

Germans are good at making German beer.

I'm willing to bet that one supported the growth of the other, historically. Adjacently, The Sternewirth Privilege's a short but entertaining rabbit hole. 🤗

The Germans?

At least 72% still disagree with these assholes. If the center parties where less corrupt and incompetent, and mainstream media didn't pile on by sensationalising, framing and dramatising everything in the worst possible way, it would probably be more.

I low-key hope they win one of the upcoming state elections, so people get a preview of how they are an alternative to nothing, with no plan on how to improve anything. If you give them an absolute majority, you don't deserve any better to begin with

Did you used to be smart, too?

For all intensive porpoises

Not as long as you've been a fuckin' monkey, for sure.

Well, yes - I have been sexually active since a rather young age, but I don't see how that's... *ahem* ...germane here.

It works out if the AfD is actually only against illegal immigration like they say. They do their best to make that hard to believe.

Germans are not smart

At least the package is in 3 languages, so you have to be able to read all 3 to fully understand it.

No text at all is required to "understand" that abomination.
