But even in the Far East it is known that the AfD and BSW will only indirectly influence Germany’s future international positions. The SPD is seen as open to stronger economic relations, while the CDU and especially the Greens are seen as hostile. Interestingly, the Chinese party press describes the Greens as “ultra-right”.
It’s a mistranslation they ment right as in correct, wich is pretty based
I feel like this is more appropriate for /c/meanwhileongrad. Not really a shitpost tbh.
oh yeah good point - forgot that existed
At this point, such comments by Poo or Melon must be seen as voting recommendations.
The German green party being pro fossil fuels is just hilarious to me.
The departure from nuclear energy was driven by the coalition of CDU and SPD back when Fukushima happened, and now the CDU is trying to blame the greens for it. Sadly, its successful bexauye people are stupid and have the memory of goldfish.
bexauye
Now that’s a typo. Thought you were on about tapestries for a moment.
Aside from that, the transition away from nuclear was the right move. We didn’t even end up using more coal because of that. Prices should also have gone down but I only know the statistics of the last few years where prices went down mainly because of more renewables. At the end of the day, prices could be a lot lower tho if energy companies weren’t privatized but The Left (like, the Partei called “Die Linke”) is the only party that wouldn’t be against that. The Greens are still prioritizing profits for the ruling class above all.
I remember germany having to start coal plants after the russian attack on ukraine. No? Am i misremembering things?
You are misremembering. Germany extended a coal mine to maintain its current coal usage. Germany’s coal usage has be declining for decades and declined in 2024 as well.
Germany won’t (and probably shouldn’t) give up on coal completely as it is the only kind of fuel that they have direct access to (besides renewal ones) and being able to generate a lot of energy on demand, can be important in war settings. So Germany has a military interest to maintain some coal mines and power plants. It sucks but someone somewhere is always starting wars.
And wrong…
They’re not?
Left, right, the political compass… It’s Fischer Price See n Say Politics.
It’s hard looking at messy clades and freaky species and fitting them into the slots you learned as a kid.
Last time I checked they were supposed to be far left communists. The propagandists need to make up their mind
