All you have to do is look at the US to see what kakistocracy will do to your country.

Not even remotely close, but to the main point, Germany has a serious problem when it comes to illegal migration and they don’t have the situation under control. The current status quo in that country is unsustainable unmanageable, the social issues continues to be a powder keg for that nation.

When the mainstream political parties push unpopular and\or harmful policies for many long years in a democracy, this is often the result.
I'veSeenFootage
Or a history book. No far right government in the history of the world has ever produced a thriving society.
bass4funk
Neither a far left one as well. Think about it rationally…

Keep the Afd out of the government.

There is no far-left party in the German elections.
I'veSeenFootage
Exactly. So no reason to support either, right?
bass4funk
That’s like saying Transgender doesn’t exist in the U.S.
True, but reality is, people do

The elections have nothing to do with the US.
The Afd is an extreme-right party hence the demonstrations by the Germans—nearly half a million people.
Name an extreme-left party in the elections.

People like you, yeah. You do realize Trump is a far-right politician?!

Not assaulting people over their choice of lifestyle is not far left.
Mr Kipling
The AfD are the last chance to save Germany and German culture.
bass4funk
I never said or implied it did. Huh?
They can do that, but it still won’t help the dystopian nation
CDU as well as the SPD and their policies alone killing Germany and again, we are talking about policies.
bass4funk
Semantics

Are you attempting to claim the CDU and the SPD are extreme-left parties? ROFL
Still waiting for you to name one.
Did you apply for your German nationality and register to vote?

@Wallace
More of your horse-puckey. The following parties have submitted state lists and are contesting various regions across Germany:
-Die Linke (The Left) has been represented in the Bundestag (Germany's federal parliament) since 2005
-Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW): Founded in 2023 by former Die Linke politician Sahra Wagenknecht, this party combines left-wing populism with cultural conservatism.
-Marxist-Leninist Party of Germany (MLPD): A small party with a Marxist-Leninist orientation.
Congrats, though, your post was heavily upvoted. Which just goes to show...
TaiwanIsNotChina
No, in fact, it is quite reasonable not assault people over their choice of lifestyle.
wallace
I didn't state there were no leftwing parties. I said there were no extreme leftwing parties, unlike the extreme rightwing AfD. that would affect the election outcome.
Marxist-Leninist Party of Germany (MLPD): No importance in this election, unlike the AfD which could have 29% of the votes. Membership is less than 3,000. Nitpicking this one.
Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance (BSW). Less than 900 members. Nitpicking again.
Die Linke (The Left). 70,000 members. Not going to win a large number of votes.

The AfD are the last chance to save Germany and German culture.
Exactly.

The mainstream parties have been following policies that are destroying Germany (the same goes in most of western europe). The part of the public unbrainwashed are doing what needs to be done. The AfD is Germany’s only hope. The “anti-far-right protesters” are foolish in the extreme.

@Wallace
You actually said "far left." I listed three of them running in the election. So you were wrong and now you're lying about it.
You didn't say ones that "would affect the election outsome." You said "Name an extreme-left party in the elections."
But, hey, you got upvoted again. The people who agree with your clearly don't like facts or reason.
wallace
In my book far-left and extreme left-wing are the same. Not lying about anything and you shouldn't accuse any poster of lying. Why are you bothered about comment voting?
Great Bird
The SPD and CDU as far left parties! Too funny. What's next, Reagan and Thatcher, the far leftists of the 80es, next we get Trump and Putin, the far leftists of the present?

The SPD's far left migration platform spells doom for Germany.
Great Bird
The SPD has no far left migration platform.
iknowall
You mean they have an extreme far left migration platform?
Agreed with that.
The German people must oppose such extremist approach to migration for the sake of their country and for the sake of Europe as a whole.

I have read many scholars argue that the root cause of the holocaust and racism in Germany and other parts of Europe was the failure to accept multi culturism as a positive influence on the nation.
In 2025 we might have moved past the "glorious days of German culture "
The world is becoming integrated.
Those posters who disagree seem to be living in Japan whilst having a non Japanese background...funny that.
Great Bird
No, I mean that simply lining up buzzwords, like "far left" "migration" doesn't make for a coherent argument. Changing "far" to "extreme" wasn't an improvement either.
The German people btw "must" do nothing at all, they will do what they like. Which unfortunately is voting for the center right CDU mostly. Or for the deeply misguided ones for the AfD.
iknowall
Does using "far leftists" like you did make a coherent argument?
France's far left migration policy spells doom and gloom as does the SPD's. There's been a pattern already established in Europe of migration policy failures.
If it is not coherent to you, well . . .
No, the Germans must oppose those hard left, far left, extremist migration policies, whether they like it or not.
Great Bird
France doesn't have a far left migration policy either.
iknowall
France's far left does.
