The thing is: Germany doesn’t, for years that is (yes, the actual deliveries are public 😉)… Unless you pretend that air-defense, air-defense corvetttes, torpedos or submarines (all ongoing contracts for many years, too) are somehow used against Palestinians.
They do, they don’t, it’s all the same smoke screen to keep you occupied with nonsense.
But lumping all of them together with the far-right idiots isn’t helpful either.
But that is exactly what is happening. After Merkel the C*U did a massiv leap to the right and spend the last 3 years parroting every far-right lie and narrative thus painting the picture of those morons actually being right and having a point.
And given that it happened right after two small parties (Greens and FDP) banded together after the last election to see who is given them the better deal in government building it’s hard to believe that this is a coincidence. They realized that they are going to be meaningless no matter their own votes if they don’t find any common ground with other parties so they helped grow another (far) right-wing party, democracy be damned…
What government?
He spend years ranting about the former governent’s uselessness (the one that did more work in 2 years than the usual C*U-led government in 8…) and making big promises… only to break them all within weeks of the election (some of the big ones even before becoming chancellor).
So what we got is yet another perfect example of right-wing populist reality: Making a big show of rolling back progress made by the former government as a diversion from all money gifted to his rich buddies while also silently keeping all the former government’s neccessary but often unpopular changes he was most outspoken against. Sadly neither reality nor economy actually care for culture war bullshit.
It’s basically “We are in power again so now everything will magically become better while we do nothing but enrich ourselves”. And their brain-dead voters see no actual problem. Sure… they criticise the (obviously non-existent) results, but will vote exactly the same again, like they do every single time.
So one in five doesn’t do proper backups. That’s much better than expected… 😅
Isn’t that the whole point of containerised solutions? Having some pre-setup, auto-updating solution with very little requirement to dive into the details like what your database is and which dependencies you need to manage…
Correct answer for basically every country: far-right extremists and the hardcore neoliberal capitalist right (that will happily cooperate with the former if given the chance)… constantly pushed by bad foreign (to destabilise democracies) and domestic (to enrich themselves at the expense of democracy) actors.
No science advisor will pay our corrupt politicians better than lobbyists so why have an additional position to get pointedly ignored 100% of the time?
The only thing the fell apart is the sanity of people like you.
When in countries that took in huge amounts of refugees, in countries that fought hard to not take any, and in countries that don’t even have any meaningful of immigration at all the narrative of how evil immigrants are to blame for everything suddenly is running wild at the same time everyone with two working brain cells should be able to see the organised campaign of desinformation and plain lies.
Sadly people stupid enough to fall for it have already proven to not match that “2-working-brain-cells” requirement and will keep helping far-right populist liars to find their own society…
But in reality a huge part of the human population is insanely stupid and wants Trump and every likewise morons endorsed by him.
known for its unwavering support of Israel
Also known for pushing every far-right or culture war bullshit desinformation narrative imaginable as well as running constant smear campaigns against all politicians and parties more left than literal nazi’s and their sympathizers…
So the perfect support for Israel’s genocidal nationalists on a propaganda power trip.
No, he doesn’t face trouble over reforms. He faces trouble as he is a fucking populist and blatant liar…
I don’t actually “wish” for it. But it’s the better alternative to the fascist C*U+AfD coalition based on populism and culture war bullshit we are right now aiming for.
And why go so far to find extreme examples around the world? When you can also look at the usual state of government in Belgium, a close European neighbour…
Sadly I think that you are wrong here. More division and no working government would at least be a sign that there is a healthy chunk with brains left. Instead we get totally idiotic populists in power because propaganda victims are the majority and calling th shots (well, not actually, but they are too stupid to realize how the people they elect are working against them anyway).
I thought she was not popular in Germany…
That’s never a problem. The brain-dead and the senile combine to a massive majority and both are changing their opinion instantly once the right propagandists tell them how to think.
Also the president isn’t elected by the population. So it’s even cheaper as politicians don’t need to be brain-washed, they can simply be bought.
Does it matter where the non-existent technology that is actually never really build comes from? Starting to build SMRs soon™ is like fusion being ready soon™…

And “taking a look” here means blocking them all so your poor adblockers don’t need to bother…

This feels like you just called my PC old…
More than half of the voters are senile and will vote for the same conservative party again and again. Which can only do two things: lie and enrich themselves and their coporate buddies if in government or block and obstruct if not.
The rest has 3 options: ignore politics in silence as the country is obviously lost, leave the obviously country or vote for insane extremists as any change is perceived to be better than more decades of slow and steady decay to make the 1% richer.
And thanks to a constant onslaught of social media brain-rot and propaganda a lot of the less educated pick the latter one.
To give you a proper perspective: the same party leading the government for the vast majority in the last decades is in power again. They campaigned on the same lies as they do every 4 years, they broke every single of their promises within weeks after being elected again. They spend most of their time spouting nonsensical culture war bullshit to divert from all their corruption scandals (often dating back several terms) again. And at the same time they barely lost 2% in polls. Because their voters are just brain-dead.
Also -as all conservatives nowadays are embracing Trumpism- they are the far-rights biggest helpers happily pushing populism, culture war and xenophobia as a way to divert from their constant money grabs… while also constantly moving further to the right to get the extremist voters back (they don’t…) while alienating every other democratic party.
Their whole modus operandi is basically you either do what we say or we will block everything. And unless there is a sudden increase in old age mortality they will go on like this forever until the country is so broken that the next fascist government and the rubble thereafter will be an improvement indeed.
And the newer ones then “removed” the color coding by doing one half of the circle in green, the other half in purple…
The weapon you are ralking about it a German/Israeli/Singaporean co-development with Israel having its own production.
Sea blockade against which countries trying to deliver anything to Gaza exactly? Oh…
No. The actual deliveries are well documented. “only four licences for ‘war weapons’ have been granted: two for training ammunition, one for propellant charges for test purposes, and one concerning the export of 3000 portable anti-tank weapons”. That’s the total amount since October 2023 btw… And nearly 2 years later we are still talking about stuff that isn’t real.
And speaking about stuff that isn’t real… trying to pretend that there are no rockets and missile still shot at Israel and talking about “alleged” self-defense is objectively wrong.
