I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

If you find you're utterly incapable of protesting an issue without actively supporting Nazis, no matter how hard you look for an alternative way of protesting it, it's time to take a serious look at that issue and think about whether it's maybe a Nazi issue to begin with. Or if you're doing enough to kick out the Nazis from your protest.

Whether a protest consists of literally only 100% Nazis that need to have been convicted of Volksherhetzung to qualify as Nazi, or however far you can still move that goalpost, or of 10% Nazis and 90% their active supporters is, at best, a semantic difference. You can say the Third Reich consisted technically only of Nazis and their supporters but it was still the Third Reich. There's a reason the US forces investigated everyone.

It's not as if the Western European, and German population in particular has been given a lot of opportunities of protesting mass immigration or other such issues without being called Nazis. It's as much on the observer as it is to the organizers to distinguish Nazis from non-Nazis, and legitimate grievances from far-right violence.... but we all know the leftists aren't exactly tolerant in that regard. So we've come to the point where people just don't care. If the observer can't tell a Nazi from a non-Nazi, that's on them. That's what I'm seeing happening. The power of making people do what you want by calling them nazis by association is waning. Not exactly a German phenomenon, but uniquely poignant in Germany for obvious reasons.

What I'm interested is in the response, if anything, that Merkel and powers that be have to offer to solve the actual problem that caused all this. They've painted themselves in the corner in insisting that mass immigration is going to work out great, while every kind of migrant attack or bothersome statistic undermines that. Will they at least do something so that career criminals who have been denied asylum would be deported, rather than left to roam around in gangs and stab people?

Well, we could send in the Bundeswehr to mow down everyone with machine guns. Maybe bomb the Sächsisch Landtag with some Taurus cruise missiles (otherwise those things will never see any use, anyway).

I mean, if things escalate far enough, that could happen. :shrug:

Then the Bundesregierung can just set-up a "Interimsregierung" without any Nazis


Edit:

This could happen because the Bundeswehr has this weird thing written in their Auftrag somewhere saying they can just do a coup to replace "Undemocratic" Regierungen. So for example, the Bundeswehr can just go "Nope" and clear out the Bundestag if Nazis gain power again. I don't remember this exactly word for word, but if the generals leading the Bundeswehr have the balls, they can just straight up ignore the government if it is undemocratic enough for them.

Great idea! The average soldiers rigorous training on the use of the tactical broomstick will be invaluable when the time comes to sweep the streets clean of Nazi-trash.

Soweit ich das sehe gibts (zumindest in den Medien, die ich konsumiere, sprich v.a. Spiegel, Süddeutsche, Zeit und Augsburger Allgemeine) einen Haufen "Das ist ein sächsisches Problem und kein deutsches!"-Meinungen sowie eine überraschende Anzahl an Kommentaren, die die AfD vom Verfassungsschutz beobachtet sehen wollen. Wirkliches Verständnis für die "besorgten Bürger" seh ich da nicht, aber auch nur eine begrenzte Bereitschaft zur Erkenntnis, dass das nur die Spitze vom Eisberg sein dürfte und sich das Problem sicher nicht auf Sachsen beschränkt.

Reminder that Martenstein once had a take that was "why don't trans people just pick whichever bathroom they feel like, and if challenged just lie that the other bathroom is broken/occupied?"

Two sub-takes were supporting this thesis:

i) "I go to the women's bathroom all the time when the men's line is too long; I have yet to get my rear end kicked or whatever"
ii) "One time when I was in Israel as a young adult, I really wanted to mack on this Israeli chick, but I figured that she wouldn't want to have sex with me if she knew I was German. So I lied that I was Swiss and we had sex. The end! No moral."

There was a long interview with Martenstein on Übermedien a while ago that holds some valuable insights. I tried finding a paragraph that really sums it up and I think this is best, but the whole thing is worth reading:

quote:

Sie sind schon besessen von diesem Thema „Gender“, oder?

Nein.

Mindestens als Neben-Pointe kommt das bestimmt in jeder zweiten Kolumne von Ihnen vor.

Wenn sich keiner mehr darüber aufregt, höre ich sofort auf damit.

Wenn wir jetzt alle aufhören, uns über Ihre Texte zu beklagen, schreiben Sie andere Texte?

Ja, sofort.

Das kann doch nicht der Antrieb sein für Sie, zu sagen: Haha, jetzt sind alle auf den Barrikaden, jetzt mach ich das nochmal.

Das ganze Dilemma wurde jüngst deutlich, als im nordsächsischen Städtchen Oschatz ein NPD-Mann Schöffe werden wollte. Im Stadtrat scheiterte das zwar an der erforderlichen Zweidrittelmehrheit, aber bei der Wahl offenbarte sich eine verstörende Nähe zwischen CDU und NPD. Die Mehrheit der CDU-Stadtratsfraktion votierte für den Kandidaten. Sie hatte kein Problem damit, ein bekanntes Mitglied der Rechtsextremen als ehrenamtlichen Richter zu nominieren. Der Bewerber sei zwar NPD-Mitglied, sagte CDU-Fraktionschef Dietmar Schurig, aber im Stadtrat noch nie durch rechtsextreme Äußerungen aufgefallen.
