Jürgen Hubert<p>Well, looks like German democracy will survive for another round.</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Merz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Merz</span></a> will most likely seek a coalition with the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SPD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SPD</span></a> . While I personally don't trust the man at all, he is no Trump - he has neither the power nor the charisma to purge the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/CDU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CDU</span></a> (let alone the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/CSU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CSU</span></a> ) of moderates and lead them into a coalition with the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/AfD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AfD</span></a> . We have been in Black-Red coalitions under Merkel before, and while none of them were great, we survived them (though Merz is definitely crueler than Merkel ever was).</p><p>The fact that the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/FDP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FDP</span></a> was kicked out parliament was very satisfying to me. They _could_ have been a party of personal liberty, which is a valid , positive approach to politics. Instead, their main "accomplishment" these last few years was opposing and sabotaging the very government they were a part of. Goodbye, <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Lindner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lindner</span></a> - you will not be missed.</p><p>Props to the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Linke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linke</span></a> for their stunning reversal. They were the only party actually renewing themselves for this election, and it paid off. Furthermore, though it pains me to say it as a member of the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Gr%C3%BCnen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Grünen</span></a> , neither the Grünen nor the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SPD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SPD</span></a> have done credible leftist politics these past few years, so it's good that _one_ party did and was very successful with it.</p><p>It also helped that the most toxic elements and <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Putin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Putin</span></a> bootlickers in the Linke jumped ship to the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/BSW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BSW</span></a> - which narrowly failed to enter parliament, which is something that deserves some gloating. Not a great investment now, eh Putin? I hope that <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Wagenknecht" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wagenknecht</span></a> - like Lindner - ends up on the trash heap of history.</p><p>The big question is how the SPD will develop. The party desperately needs a renewal - <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Scholz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Scholz</span></a> was an atrocious leader in more ways than one. Yet spending the next few years as a junior partner to Merz is not a great position to reinvent yourself as a social democratic force...</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Germany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Germany</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/GermanPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GermanPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/GermanElections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GermanElections</span></a> <br><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/live/ckg82wwrwy6t" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">bbc.com/news/live/ckg82wwrwy6t</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

Jürgen Hubert<p>The first exit polls for the German federal elections are in. They... suck, but they could have been even worse:</p><p>CDU - CSU - 29%<br>AFD - 19.5%<br>SPD - 16%<br>Greens - 13.5%<br>Die Linke - 8.5%<br>FDP - 4.9%<br>BSW - 4.7%</p><p>- As expected, the fascist <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/AfD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AfD</span></a> has become the second biggest political party, but at least they haven't reached the 20% they had been polling in all the opinion polls so far.</p><p>- If the exist polls remain true, the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/FDP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FDP</span></a> has barely missed reaching the 5% threshold for re-entering parliament. Since their "accomplishments" in the last three years largely consisted in sabotaging the work of the coalition government they were a part of, and they have turned from being a party of personal liberty advocated to a party of crypto-fascists <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/ElonMusk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElonMusk</span></a> fans, this is no great loss (sorry <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Lindner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lindner</span></a> , but Elon Musk will always love those more who are blatant about their fascism!)</p><p>- The <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/BSW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BSW</span></a> will also fail to enter parliament. Since they are basically Putin's stooges intended to channel votes away from leftist democratic parties, this is no great loss.</p><p>- After having been predicted to drop out of parliament due to the rise of the BSW, the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Linke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linke</span></a> has managed to pull of a stunning reversal and gained 8.5% of the vote. I may not agree with all of their position, but German politics desperately needs a party that stands for clear leftist policies - something that both the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SPD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SPD</span></a> and the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Gr%C3%BCnen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Grünen</span></a> have failed at in recent years.</p><p>It looks the most viable option will be a coalition led by the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/CDU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CDU</span></a> with the <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SPD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SPD</span></a> as a junior partner. We've already had those under <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Merkel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Merkel</span></a> , and they were long years of stagnation - but a chancellor <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Merz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Merz</span></a> will have fewer principles than Merkel had, and far more cruelty. He is a <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Blackrock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Blackrock</span></a> creature through and through. And while he has made some noises that indicate that he largely recognizes Trump for what he is, I suspect that in the end he will do what the oligarchy wants of him.</p><p>Hopefully the oligarchy doesn't want him to form a coalition with the AfD, but we shall see... 😞 </p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Germany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Germany</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/GermanElections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GermanElections</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/GermanPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GermanPolitics</span></a> <br><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/live/ckg82wwrwy6t" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">bbc.com/news/live/ckg82wwrwy6t</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
