  • Welcome to the German gerontocracy. The obsolute majority gives a fuck about anything other than living their remaining years as well as possible, conservative politicians have completely abondoned actual topics, positions and discussions for the most rediculous culture war bullshit imaginable and the media is parroting their narratives 24/7.

    Any actual progress is drowned in propaganda to reverse its effect (for example the law change to reduce co2 in the heating sector managed -after months of lies and desinformation- to create a massive boom in gas-heating instead).

    And just yesterday the CDU in opposition (and biggest party by polls) demanded to revert the EU’s ban on combustion engines (that doesn’t exist in the first place but is just a conclusion following co2 reduction goals) and other climate goals (including those implmentd by them years ago) because we can’t strain German people and the economy with “EV madness”…

    Do I condemn Hamas’ atrocities?

    I condemn every single atrocity, whomever is the perpetrator or the victim […], at the same time, I celebrate anyone who risks their life to TEAR DOWN THE WALL.

    […]

    Are Israelis not justified to fear that Hamas wants to exterminate them?

    Of course they are! Jews have suffered a Holocaust that was preceded with pogroms and a deep-seated antisemitism permeating Europe and the Americas for centuries.

    […]

    So, let’s be clear: If Jews were under attack, anywhere in the world, I would be the first to canvass for a Jewish Congress in which to register our solidarity.

    (from the speech published later, when he was not allowed to talk there…)

    So in short:

    • I normaly condemn violence in general but I don’t condemn Hamas but cheer for them.
    • The only antisemitism Israel should be afraid of comes from Europe and America.
    • No Jew in the world was actually attacked… as I would have stood with them then.

    What an impressive example of a voice of reason for Palestina… totally not an antisemitic, lying populist cheering for Hamas’ attacks while at the same time denying any Jew got attacked. What a f****ng 🤡.


  • Thank you for perfectly demonstrating my point. You are an idiot thinking this is a team sport, “your” side is right and everybody not sharing your exact opinion is wrong and the enemy.

    And because everyone is the same on that “other side” I somehow become a zionist bombing civilians in your alternative world view, although I could impossibly qualify for that definition by any degree.

    And also because everything on your side needs to be righteous you twist reality to fit your view. I explicitly asked how to effectively separate Palestinian civilians in Gaza from their de facto Hamas governmemnt. Yet somehow in your brain that question translated to the exact opposite of what I actually said: That somehow every civilan in Gaza is part of Hamas.

    Seriously… how fucked up is your delusion that things you read instantly transform to mean something completely different, just so they fit the imaginary point you are trying to make?


  • Hamas plans a genocide of Jews on one hand -without limited success so far, but not for a lack of trying- and actively helps with worsening the situation in Gaza on the other because they can use deaths there for their propaganda. Israel isn’t shy about killing as many Palestinians as possible either, because not reacting to Hamas terror isn’t an option, but any reaction will produce a negative reaction and tons of propaganda anyway. So why not go all in?

    So which side are you talking about? The one commiting genocide or the genocidal one? No, Palestinian civilians are sadly not a valid side you can chose as they are de facto governed by Hamas in Gaza… unless you have a plan to separate one from the other somehow. Please then go on and tell the plan to world leaders unsuccessfully looking for such a solution for many, many years now.

    Or in short: Pretending there are easy sides, with one being right and one wrong, is not a solution but indeed part of the problem.


  • Nice to see that right-wing populism still works perfectly because people are idiots, when it’s actually the former government that failed to collect those stats for decades. The same people now in opposition and spreading desinformation about immigrants 24/7 for more than two years…

    But once we reelect those morons (probably alongside the ever more insane far-right also benefitting from this propaganda) everything will of course end well as everything is the current government’s fault.



  • No matter how often people lie and lie and lie again to tell funny tales about Olaf Scholz blocking Taurus, it will not become true.

    Olaf Scholz is an idiot but that doesn’t mean that your fairy tales will become reality.

    What he actually has said time and time again is that Germany can’t send Taurus to Ukraine without direct involvement of the Bundeswehr.

    The same was said by the Ministry of Defense, the Bundeswehr, the producers. That statement was also supported by the leaked discussion of Bunderwehr leaders (you all commented and discussed this, so I assume at least someone actually listened to the recording), and then again in even more detail by a press leak from a government commitee (that even resulted in an investigation for betrayal of state secrets…).

    Germany just cannot send Taurus to Ukraine because the systems to programm those missiles are rare and very centralized, so it’s impossible to just give them away like some laptop… And direct involvement of German military would violate the constitution.

    So people can either continue fighting their own made-up straw-man for another year and argue how this time scared Olaf will surely, finally get to his senses… or they can accept reality and stop arguing against their own pretend-argument when the actual real reason is all technical, explained multiple times and will not change.



  • Nothing outrageous about banning a liar and propagandist from spreading lies and propaganda in our country.

    Ffs… he even published the speech he was going to give there and it was hard to swallow so much bullshit. On the plus side, he basically answered questions about Hamas atrocities and their threat to Israel with (paraphrasing) “I condemn atrocities in general but here I celebrate the people that attacked Israel” and “What threat? Israel is only afraid because of rampant anti-semitism in Europe and America”.

    So we know were he stands and if you ask me he can go get fucked with the Hamas buddies he supports.



  • Why is Germany not delivering Taurus?

    Government: Because we can’t.

    Media: NOOO!!! That must be a lie! The totally real reason is <insert random fairy tale>!

    Bundeswehr: No, we can’t. Neither do we have enough of them, nor would we be able to provide Ukraine with the means to actually use them properly.

    Media: NOOO! That must be a lie because we already told you the real reason is…

    Leaked military discussion about the options to provide Taurus: Confirming exactly what was said before. That they can’t provide Taurus without direct involvement of the German army.

    Media: Let’s ignore that part and focus on the fact that they confirmed UK personal in Ukraine, so we can keep telling our fairy tale.

    Press leak (now even triggering an investigation for betrayal of state secrets): Again confirming what was said for more than 9 months now. That Germany cannot provide Taurus, because hardware for programming is only available in limited amounts with the Bundeswehr and can’t be given away.

    Media: Why is Scholz so afraid of Russia to still block Taurus?

    Seriously… how much longer are we supposed to watch that rediculous propaganda stage play? Talking about beating a dead horse isn’t even applicable here anymore as that poor cadaver was reduced to mush long ago.
