Once again, we can't make up our mind on what to do with the NPD. This time, government won't try to have the NPD banned by our supreme court, while the Bundestag wants to vote on bringing the issue before the court themselves, leading to hilarious exchanges: FDP-head Rösler says we can't ban stupidity. Response from Mecklenburg-Vorpommern's interior minister: "If minister Rösler says we can't ban stupidity, then I can only say: indeed we can't" ("Wenn Herr Minister Rösler sagt, Dummheit könne man nicht verbieten, sage ich: Dummheit kann man tatsächlich nicht verbieten.")

Sereri posted:I'm guessing you're referring to this post. gently caress German nuclear-phobia. Nuclear waste should have become a moot point a long time ago, but no, we couldn't bring ourselves to invest in actually useful reprocessing and modern power plants which can be fed with nuclear waste and burn it till you only have to secure it for like 300 years. Even if we can't bring ourselves to like or even tolerate nuclear power, we should at least run some of these things as waste disposal facilities Also gently caress 100% renewable energy plans, that is going to be both expensive and insufficient and cheap electricity is a good thing (schon wieder Strompreiserhöhung anyone?). Actual electricity consumption will increase once we get serious about having carbon-neutral transportation that doesn't also destroy rainforests or take up vast swathes of other land because, surprise, thermodynamics says no to perfect efficiency and all that oil we're not burning needs to be replaced with electricity. Zwille posted:Yeah that's pretty much what everyone's saying. CDU staying in no matter what, but fingers crossed for the FDP to get kicked out. I also kinda wanna see the Pirate Party succeed (i.e. get more than 5%) just for shits and giggles. You mean you want Die PARTEI to succeed for shits and giggles If they magically got more than 5% () they might send a higher percentage of intelligent people.

Air is lava! posted:I wasn't all that happy about the offers. My personal core issue (a sane and extensive use of nuclear energy) was adressed pretty much nowhere. To be frank, that was the only reason I actually voted SchwarzGelb 4 years ago. Didn't help that much in that regard... Same here. Not of voting age for the last round, but I would have gritted my teeth and voted Schwarz-Gelb (so that we do our part in contributing to not-completely-loving-the-planet ) with the plan of voting them out (because gently caress their economical and social policies) once loads of nuclear power plants were a fait accompli and not preventable by NIMBYs and assorted idiots anymore. Since they didn't even do that, I gritted my teeth slightly less and voted SPD. frankenfreak posted:The AfD also got noticeably more votes in the east (proportionally), so it's protest votes going to newest protest party. Also true in other regions. In Bavaria, it's also the Freie Wähler. Wenigstens kein Filz (war aber wohl ne dumme Idee) is the sentiment I've heard from some of their voters. At least the protest votes are not going to the NPD V. Illych L. posted:Yeah, France is weird. I just felt I should include it since that's the major country that's been going against the prevailing liberal-conservative trend in Europe. Vive la France gently caress it why am I not going there but to Britain for the next couple of years...

Radical Salafists start playing Sharia Police in Germany, not too far from where I live. These assholes need to get the book thrown at them with extreme prejudice, vigilante justice is a horrible loving idea and has no place in any functioning society . Also congratulations on doing your part in making well integrated muslim immigrants look bad, you self righteous morons.

Randler posted:Nothing of what is described in the article comes even close to vigilante justice, though. They have as much a right to talk to people about what they consider proper living as other religious or political organizations. Now we need someone to test if "get out of my face, I don't give a poo poo about whether you consider my behaviour moral" will, in fact, get them out of your face. Also the issue is them playing Sharia Police, which implies they have state-like authority. If they wandered around playing Sharia Information Association, that'd be quite different.

I don't condone radical Islam, but it's ridiculous to try to impose our values on other people, then shrug and go "Hey, we're not attacking your religion, just your deeply-held beliefs and culture." The counterargument being that going to a western country is a package deal where you either live with terrible things like womens' rights, non closeted gays and separation of church and state or go back home. e: and regarding "attacking your religion": if you think your religion forbids womens' rights, gays, and mandates a theocracy then, hey, sucks to be you.

Libluini posted:I object to the term "The War on Islam", since there are a lot of shitheads in other religions, too. And those shitheads also don't like things like basic human rights or equality of men and women. Let's call it "The War on Shitheadism", this is less racist and far more accurate. By population, there are more muslims than most other religions put together. Probably still true if you only count middle east theocratic shitholes and not ~moderate~ majority-muslim countries nobody has a problem with. Also something something monolithic groups.
