Great logical argument. NOT!
What? I was agreeing with you, Ben.
I agree regarding Trump. I don‘t know what that Spanish MP said towards Musk, but the EU is one thing, the individual countries are another. Europe missed the technology train. We have nothing similar to Google and no company who can compete with the tech billionaires AI. And this is mainly to blame on the CDU/CSU and FDP, which were so long in power. Germany hasn‘t even fast internet, not to speak of blind internet areas in populated areas, lol. We don‘t have the power to resist but will cave in. Merz, our next chancellor, hangs on the teats of Blackrock. He already said he wants to coalition with the Greens. I don‘t see any change on the horizon. Neither do I see the potential for significant change in France and Spain. And also not in Britain.
We are like walking dead’s. Not long ago a refused asylum seeker killed a two year old child in a group of kindergarten kids, as well as a man who wanted to help. Injured a few more. And all we see are Grandmas marching against Nazis instead of protests to send those people home. He was known for diverse violent acts. It‘s so sad, that I don‘t even want to watch any news or political Talkshows anymore. I will elect as far right as possible. Here you go, Nico.
I am not far right and won’t vote that way, but I sympathize with your position. I just have one question: do you really think the far right will improve things? Even if they kick out every non-white immigrant, do you think Germany will suddenly build AI systems and decent electric cars? Do you think the German Internet will improve?
It‘s not about kicking out all non-Germans or non-white Germans. Sigh.
Ok I withdraw that part of my question. Do you think, if the AfD wins a majority government, and they kick out all the immigrants you don’t like, anything you just complained about will change?
Yes, safety will rise and the exploitation of our social system will be significantly reduced. Also from the exploitation of non recently immigrated as well as Germans without migrant background. I don‘t know if you are aware but probably half of our white Germans originally immigrated from elsewhere, especially from Eastern Europe ages ago. So it‘s laughable to see people often refer to white Germans, when there is no such group in the majority.
As the AfD rather is liberal regarding economy, I bet the economy will improve, yes. This also regarding the banal Internet connections.
AI ? No, here we have lost already. The whole EU would have to back such a Vision with lots of money.
And btw., the AfD, even if it would gain the second most votes, will never get into the government. I know already now that I vote for the bin. But that‘s my only democratic way to show the other parties and their voters my middlefinger. But to me that is not democracy anymore, if a party with the second most votes doesn‘t end up in a government coalition if the winner can‘t lead by majority. Instead, a tiny party like the FDP or the Linke or the Greens get chosen. I am disappointed by this system.
Fair enough. Your guesses are as good as mine, but here are mine anyway. As I see it, if the AfD won a majority (and I realize they never will), and they implemented all their reforms:
- Germany will still have nothing similar to Google, ever.
- Germany will still have no world-class AI, ever.
- The German auto industry will still die, far more quickly than people think. It will die as quickly as the much smaller Swedish car industry died, where everything was fine and then suddenly all their car companies were owned by China and all their cars were made there, too.
- Germany will still have crap Internet and they’ll pay more than others pay for good Internet.
On top of that:
- Germany will suffer a huge labour shortage, where nobody can find anyone to do any menial job. German businesses will become even more uncompetitive. Small businesses will close for lack of labour.
- Germany will start to age drastically.
- White Germans (whatever their ancestry) are not breeding and Germany will fall into extreme population decline, similar to South Korea.
Yes, you will be safer (a bit) and you won’t have to listen to the call to morning prayer from mosques in major cities, but the Germany you once knew is dead forever. Your choice is slow death for the next 100 years (likely followed by an invasion) or trying to remake yourselves to fit this new world. To me, the AfD is choosing the former, which is fine. I would probably choose the latter if I was a German, but I’m not. Let the Germans choose as they will.
no you can vote blank or not at all instead of voting for a nazi
not long ago a fan of your party drove his car into a market
I wrote already in a different post, that the Germany I love never existed and that I am sure it never will. But that‘s not the fault of the AfD. The AfD never was in the government. You also can‘t blame them for that we still have no Google alternative or fast internet or for anything else you mentioned.
it existed when you were young and not filled with frustration and anger towards specific people
I don’t blame the AfD for any of that, but I note they also won’t improve any of that. And their approach to Germany’s future appears to be, “let’s kick out the nasty immigrants, then sit around and wait to die.” I don’t begrudge them that. I’m sitting around waiting to die, in a way (although I still have some dreams left). Sitting around waiting to die is fun if you do it well, and I think I’m doing it well. I’m just not sure if that’s the best approach for Germany.
i think germany just had it “easy” for a long time with their main focus on the car industry and now that is in decline, they need to change/adapt and they will… just takes a bit of time
On what do you base this opinion?
Ah, this explains why I voted all my voting life since a few years ago left, namely SPD and left the Catholic Church and opposed the mere religious influence. Only to see that now even the worst religion of all is influencing more and more the German society and politics. Idiot.
lol just think about it for a minute… werent you more calm and happier when you were young?
I thought I laid that out in great detail. They have no solutions for ANY of the problems I detailed. And their solutions will introduce the problems I outlined.
Not at all. That‘s why I hated the corrupt liar Franz Josef Strauß, who was an highly intelligent but an egotistical coward, I also disliked Helmut Kohl and I hated the Church, silly. Those were my reasons why I voted SPD.
