Hi!

Don’t worry, the youth will only become further right-wing.

Here’s the result of a local German state election from September. It displays the results for people aged 18-24, divided into male (light) and female (dark). AfD is openly fascist. No other age group voted for them as much. Getting 46% in a system with proportional representation is basically unheard of by the way.

I very much suspect this trend will continue.

Why then do countries with existing left parties and proportional representation elect further and further right-wing parties in Europe?

It’s simple: They promise easy solutions for complicated problems. Banning immigration will fix all crime and the economy, opposing LGBTQ+ rights will ensure a return of the better olden days, climate change is nothing to be worried about etc etc

And even people depending on social support will gladly shoot themselves in their feet if it means someone else will have it worse.

He literally only needs the Supreme Court and Congress

Pass a blatantly unconstitutional bill and make the SC call it constitutional. That’s all that is required.

And so claimed my German ancestors.

Yet none of them fled the country, none of them joined the small, albeit existing resistance, none of those conscripted deserted the military and none of them claimed to have responsibility. Curious, isn’t it? Everybody seemed to have clean hands because only a few thousand people directly orchestrated the Holocaust. The fact that it could only happen due to both mass support and mass toleration is ignored.

Considering my instance is registered on “.de,” you have 3 guesses as to what my nationality is and who I voted for in the US election.

And I did not claim you are a Nazi. I claimed that you cannot absolve yourself from responsibility if your country commits or aids a genocide.

Everyone’s hands are clean. The workers at Raytheon producing weapons that kills Palestinians, the people who finance that through taxes, whoever flies the plane or steers the ship delivering the weapons to Israel and even the American soldiers training Israeli forces with the new weapons.

Everyone of you can give plenty of reasons why they’re not at fault. My German ancestors did the same in 1945. They “didn’t know” or they couldn’t have done anything against it or they voted for the social democrats in the last election or or or…

Maybe inflicting violence on the mics and giving blowjobs to the techs would work?

Does that make it legal in your country?

There’s no way companies should be able to abuse these technicalities. Don’t you have teleological interpretations of laws - meaning laws being interpreted by considering the intent behind them?
