@SchmonInvest I can tell you exactly. Afd voters feel they have been taken in by the old parties. Everything is promised before the elections and then broken again straight after the elections. That's why many from the CDU are now switching to the Afd. Merz has been badly burned
@Seebi and you think that the AFD will and can keep their promises if they ever come to power? That's always the case... But this time it's really blatant, I agree with you
@Seebi I am skeptical. Do you really believe that the AfD would have the necessary competence for a government? Dexit alone would be a disaster for Germany and the EU
@SchmonInvest Competence can only be demonstrated if the AfD is given the opportunity to prove it... but it is precisely this opportunity that is being consistently denied by all means. Regardless of whether you are for or against the AfD - the political development in Germany under the old parties is a farce.
is there even one credible expert who says that the afd's economic policy would be good? i don't know of any, the consensus is actually that the afd would be disastrous for the economy and accordingly for your deposits... just because all parties make crap and no politician can be trusted doesn't mean you have to vote for even bigger crap. they're not much better
@SchmonInvest I would even be sure of that. I would have preferred a black-blue government instead of having to work with losers. And as for leaving the EU, the Afd wants out of the EU and the euro, but is in favor of founding a new European community based primarily on the sovereignty and trade of nation states. I don't see it as quite that bad after all.
@SchmonInvest Give me one sensible reason why you can't vote for them. But without using any of the "arguments" of the ÖRR. Not even one from the VS, which is bound by instructions
@doyoueventradebro Before the elections, I actually thought the Cdu's economic policy was reasonably good. And what has become of it after the elections? And of course I don't keep voting for the same parties that constantly screw up. How many times? Lying and cheating wherever they can. And to determine whether the Afd would be even more of a mess, it would first have to govern. You can't predict that based on the election program.
You don't vote for ethnic people, Weidel as a quota, grinning bimbo or Trojan mare... Höcke pulls the strings... nothing learned from history? Minorities are beginning to be silenced, discredited ... migrants, queer people, disabled people. Nothing learned from history? Resist the beginnings.
@Ichbinak63 I have no idea what your job is. I'm talking about 0.4 percent of the Greens and you're talking nonsense. Have you learned nothing from history? The Afd was not the topic here
@Ichbinak63 No, I'm not telling you anything, I just don't understand what all this has to do with my post. Your comment has absolutely nothing to do with it. It's like if I asked you what you did on Saturday and you answered that you went swimming on Friday
@Ichbinak63 I'm sorry to have to say it, but unfortunately none of the things you listed are true. None of this is what the AFD wants. You must stop watching so much ARD and ZDF, otherwise you'll never know the truth.
@Alfred16 I recommend reading AND understanding the election program. And possibly also actively read AND understand some X-channels of various drivers within this party.
@Ph1l1pp They don't have to write "We discriminate against minorities". Of course, they write it in such a way that the consequence of their demands is that discrimination against minorities simply arises automatically. And actions. Actions also speak very loudly. Indeman, for example ... I don't know, apparently throwing one-way flight tickets "Home" into the letterbox of people whose surname suggests a migration background.
I find it almost amusing how some people here ask what's wrong with people. If politicians continue to pursue their unrealistic, left-wing ideological minority and socialist planned economy policies that are detached from the reality of people's lives, the AfD will sooner or later reach 30% or even 40%. It really is an AfD economic stimulus program what they are doing. To be honest, I don't understand how anyone can be surprised by this result. Who would have thought that making policy against your own people would not go down well? When you introduce increasingly socialist economic structures that destroy prosperity (e.g. ban on combustion engines, heating law, excessive regulation), while at the same time giving away billions abroad and placing an ever greater burden on your own population.
Who would have thought that it wouldn't go down well if conservative citizens were defamed across the board as "Nazis" just because they hold different opinions? When freedom of expression is increasingly restricted, critical scientists are silenced and people who do not bow to the government's narrative are punished socially and economically? Who would have thought that it would not go down well when politics is no longer about ability or performance, but only about meeting as many gender and "diverse" criteria as possible? And how can we be surprised when people even consciously choose a change of policy, opt for the center-right - and still end up with left-wing, socialist policies because the will of the voters is ignored through political games and firewalling?
It used to be the job of the media to critically scrutinize the government - today, the majority of the press is just a one-sided left-wing bubble that does one thing above all else: defend the government instead of controlling it. Conservative or critical voices are barely represented there, other opinions are not even heard. Anyone who opposes this is defamed, canceled or even threatened with the protection of the constitution.
Nor should we be surprised when people turn their backs on a government that fights opposition parties with taxpayers' money, finances left-wing front organizations to silence unpopular opinions on the streets and then raises taxes to continue funding these ideological projects. It is equally unsurprising that trust in politics is dwindling when leading ministers prefer to file criminal charges against citizens for trivialities such as "moron" (Robert Habeck: 805 charges, Annalena Baerbock: 513 charges) rather than dealing with the real problems in the country. And that people are afraid to speak their minds when house searches for insulting politicians suddenly become the norm.
Whoever governs like this will eventually reap the resistance of the population. I had really hoped that the CDU, which is actually a conservative, business-friendly party by design, would be a counterweight to this left-wing ideological madness, they were actually the last hope for everyone who wanted to prevent the AfD. but as we have seen, that has unfortunately come to nothing.
@KonradM and it would be so easy. You only need to address the problems of Afd voters and solve the problems instead of always taking action against the Afd. Then the Afd would be history. Merz had good ideas, but was unfortunately slowed down by the SPD.
@Ph1l1pp From what I can see, little Donald is plunging the American economy deeper and deeper into recession with his tariff fantasies. American stocks have had regular bloodbaths recently. And he doesn't even care what the tariffs do to the economy, as he said on NBC in the last few days.
@KonradM What you're hearing is really frightening. He said that he doesn't care if cars become more expensive. Please don't make up nonsense like that. You're talking about bloodbaths? Is that what you call small corrections?
Merkel once said (or tried to say) "the proof of the pudding is in the eating"
Which sweet would you rather try? A lollipop that OBVIOUSLY tastes like a cherry, but you're not allowed to eat it. Or one that obviously tastes like shit.
Or imagine a goalkeeper in soccer who only sits on the bench. He has never conceded a goal in 5 years of professional football.
AfD and Linke are the perfect parties on paper, as they have never failed in any way or done anything bad (which is because they are banned from political cooperation). Although in the case of the Left, at least the old SED cadres can still be cited as a justification.
If you believe that the AfD is not a good party, then you should logically be in favor of it coming into government. Because only if the AfD governs can it make any mistakes at all. But as long as it can't make any mistakes while the well-known parties lead this country back to the feudal age, it won't lose a single voter by legal means.
no matter which party you vote for, you will only be lied to anyway..whether afd left or the other snot..am not a fan of the afd but maybe you should try it and if it doesn't fit then just new elections..but as I said they all have dirt on them
Your opinion ... there are several commentators giving their thoughts on the AFD, as you can read, ergo I'm going to stomp there. So work on the Greens and I'll work on the blue N8
@Ph1l1pp What does one have to do with the other? getquin should be about finance and the stock market, not politics. There are enough shitholes for political topics
@FYBSTRD Freedom of speech, that still exists in Germany? watch out, I'll contact customer service about your comment, and then we'll see how long it takes for them to delete the comment and give you a warning. 😀
