It's not perfect no, but checking a party's actual votes instead of their campaign promises is at least an attempt at getting a different picture.

67 % with Die Linken and 63 % with Die Grünen - seems accurate.

pretty much what I expected

60.8% - Die Linke
58.6% - Bündnis 90/Die Grünen
44.2% - SPD
41% - CDU/CSU

This is a bad way to do a wahl-o-mat.

:same:

this is really dangerous stuff cause it could convince a substantial part of the GroKo voters to switch parties, pointing out the complete disconnect between rhetoric and action in both parties. especially SPD, lmao, someone should sue them for wrong advertising. at least the CDU doesn't pretend to actually give a poo poo about people that much

58% Die Linke. It was weird. When you agree with a measure in principle, but think it doesn't go far enough, but don't quite know the context, how are you supposed to vote ..?

That's interesting, the "traditional" Wahlomat almost always gives me Die Grünen or Die Linke as the parties most aligned with my politics, whereas here I'm mostly aligned with CDU/CSU and SPD. I guess it's because I don't necessarily have strong negative feelings about GMOs in agriculture, nuclear power and the Bundeswehr participating in military operations abroad (which I can't recall ever being a strong focus in Wahlomat surveys)? Though it could also be that most parliamentary votes actually were initiated by the governing parties, giving a survey that bases its questions on how parties voted on it a bias towards the GroKo, maybe? Dunno.

Yeah, it was particularly weird when they had "institute a 8.50€ minwage" and "institute a 10.00€ minwage" side by side. Does a "yes" to either count as an implicit "no" against the other there? Or would a "no" against 8.50€ be considered a vote against having any minwage at all even if you put a "yes" for the 10€ option afterwards?

Also there's the general issue of selection bias in that apparently you only see proposals that have made it to a vote in the first place.

This kind of wahl-o-mat is bad because the opposition can basically copy their Wahlprogramm and whatever is sexy at the moment into legislative proposals, knowing that they will never seriously discussed while the actual governing parties have to conform to the harsh reality.

lolno², sending the Bundeswehr on dumb adventures across the globe, refusing to adjust Kindergeld, Bafög& Co. to inflation while running a record budget surplus, introducing Vorratsdatenspeicherung, a PKW Maut, etc. have nothing to do with harsh reality. These are just oval office policies introduced by oval office parties for oval office people

Not the Junge Union, but it's cringeworthy watching idiots think it's productive to protest against the ~system~ (which is imperialist and capitalist) by having a random brawl and torching Kleinwagen whenever there aren't enough convenient Nazis in punching range.

This, I agree with. There should be a parship-kind of service for left and right chucklefucks who just want to punch people to hook up and be all manly and politically active at each other.

Du hast den Artikel aber schon gelesen, oder?

Der ist nämlich absolut korrekt, es ging keineswegs um die Abschaffung der Sklaverei aus humanitären oder moralischen Gründen, sondern um die unterschiedlichen ökonomischen Auswirkungen die sie auf Wirtschaft der einzelnen Staaten hatte und die daraus folgenden Zollpolitik die diese bevorzugten. Und die Emanzipation aller Sklaven wurde auch erst sehr spät Teil der Forderungen.

Historisch gesehen ist der Artikel also abgesehen von der, zugegebener Maßen etwas reißerischen, Schlagzeile korrekt.

edit: Hoppala, da hätte ich den letzten Absatz wohl nicht überfliegen sollen. Okay, Korrektur meinerseits, die Fakten und die historische Analyse sind zwar korrekt, aber die Folgerungen für die Gegenwart daraus sind ziemlicher Müll, gerade wenn man sich ansieht wann und wo diese Statuen gebaut wurden.

Randler, du kannst also die taz Redakteure sowohl hauen als auch doxxen :)
