Germans, please go to vote!
-
Yeah, but throwing out some splinter groups to make a stable government possible is necessary after all, we remember Weimar - though we should not have that threshold at 18 seats by percentage or 3 direct mandates.
On the other hand, I disagree on blaming the democrat loss on third party voters. Third party votes stayed roughly the same compared to 2020 (+0.5 million, not all towards left), while 6 million democrat votes were lost. Democrats simply did not get enough people to the booths with their campaign.

You said that dual citizenship shouldn't be allowed. Do you think that someone applying for German citizenship should be forced to renounce any other citizenship in order to receive a German one? Because that's what the law used to be. And many people had and have reasons for not wanting to give up their original citizenship that went beyond the sentimental (not that pure sentimentality is not a valid reason).
-
CDU is only a smidge behind on AfD for being rightwibg shitheads, so no, CDU will be terrible.
-
It is irrelevant to German citizenship and voting rights what other countries consider to do about their nationals living abroad. But most luckily agree that suppressing these votes is undemocratic and counter producive as these people usually still have a strong connection to their contry of origin and are directly involved with it in multiple ways.
-
So you don't want to vote left because you only think about yourself but also red wouldn't change anything which you don't like. And greens ruin the country? Are you gonna spout shit about the Heizungsgesetz next?
You are making more than 7000€ a month or have more than a million bucks? It's time to pay your fair share.

If it's possible, Yes. I also think the old exceptions were sufficient . And yes, I think sentimentality isn't a valid reason to keep another one

I agree with you and don't feel that I'd support one of the big parties enough to cast my vote for them in a situation where it's pest vs cholera. But with the right being so clearly against humanity and democratic values I think the time has come to choose either pest or cholera over evil itself.
Usually I voted for a small party that falls under the 5% but this time I won't, just because I'd rather cast my vote for a party that clearly positions themselves against the right and I can agree with in some ways than to not give it at all or cast it without any impact in the actual government. -
I think CDU is pretty much middle to right ground of kokoomus and persu (both more right wing Finnish parties). And CDU has already taken some AfD point and looking like they would be happy to work with AfD, as kokoomus was first very anti persu, before last election where they set government together.
CDU with other partners would be "fine", but I think everyone's worried is they wanna stay in power and happily take AfD to guarantee their government position. -
From another fellow nordic, I honestly think any vote that is not for AFD or the pro-russian left is good enough at this point. I also think that CDU suck, but the important thing now is keeping fascism and Russian influence down. Other values are secondary for now.
-
AfD declared class war... on the working class. So if you don't go and vote, there's a big risk of that coming to you.
-
please don't fuck up like us americans just did. I mean I did not but ugh, an aweful lot did.
-
Follow dear leader's example
-
-
I'm not saying that I won't vote at all. I'm just saying that I'm having a very hard time deciding who to vote for.
-
You are making more than 7000€ a month ... It’s time to pay your fair share.
Dunno, I'm looking at my tax statement for 2023 and I paid a metric fuckton of taxes already. I already paid my fair share.
-
Fill that, tweak values and do the parties main lines match your world views.
Not voting is accapting the extreme parties taking power.
-
Lol, I'm just honestly wishing Germans has seen what happens in USA when letting biggest bullshitter in power. I think I need logoff from Internet on Sunday, just have mental health day.
-
Don't worry, I've done that already. The problem is that the parties at the top for me are all tiny parties without a realistic chance to win. If I only filter by parties that were elected last time, the first party is ... FDP at 55.7%. Then SPD at 54.3%. All other parties are below 50%.
It's tough electing a party that way.
-
as an American. vote like your life depends on it.
because it does.
not only that, make sure that none of your voting locations are using starlink internet access.
