Laserbrille wrote that the CDU under Merz is pursuing the course of the FDP: it is cutting back on the weakest, relieving the richest, doing little climate policy, and using right-wing rhetoric. The FDP was voted out for this; the CDU faces a similar end, which would be deserved, said Laserbrille. #CDU #FDP #Politik (translated)

Malca Goldstein-Wolf recommended reading a linked comment in full and stated that she agreed with its assertions. The comment criticized that politics and the media focused on right-wing forces while left-wing extremism advanced. At the same time, it accused politicians and journalists of having a negative fixation on everything right-wing and pointed out that "right" was used as a pejorative in national newspaper headlines. According to the comment, the Union, FDP, and AfD together achieved 45.9 percent in the federal elections in 2002 and 53.7 percent in 2025 — if one categorizes these parties as conservative or at least not left-wing. It also complained that there was a demarcation to the right but no corresponding demarcation to the left, causing the distinction between right and right-wing extremist as well as left and left-wing extremist to be lost. Goldstein-Wolf also highlighted the question of whether the left is the new right. https://t.co/TsSnyqmFvP #Politik #Extremismus #Demokratie (translated)

The account BrennpunktUA wrote that the SPD and the Greens would pay a high political price for their joint course with the Left in Berlin. Over the past 24 hours, he had seen numerous posts from people on X, including celebrities, who had announced their departure – particularly from the Green Party. BrennpunktUA praised those who had publicly stated that for them a line had been crossed the day before. Those who appear with the motto "Never again is now" and simultaneously bring the Left to power in Berlin have, in his opinion, forfeited the right to morally instruct others. The departing members justified their decision among other things with anti-Semitism, the glorification of Islamist terror, and tolerated connections to criminal Arab clan structures. He described the joint statement of the three parties from the day before as worthless. He wrote that he himself had left the FDP many years ago – for different reasons, although it politically remains closest to him. He knows, therefore, how difficult it is to leave a party, especially since memberships are often linked to personal networks and close friendships. He therefore showed great respect for those who left, as they were also taking personal disadvantages into account. #Politik #Grüne #Antisemitismus (translated)

Gerhard Schröder, Germany's cheekiest retiree.

Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann (68/FDP) also found clear words. #Schröder #Putin #Kritik (translated)
