Erfurt fly shit
At last the Prime Minister has resigned by grace of the AfD. For a long time he believed that he would be allowed to exercise the office and when the damage to his image became greater and greater and the spontaneous demonstrations did not end, he finally resigned reluctantly. This cannot be explained by stupidity alone. Large parts of the CDU in Thuringia remained in clandestine joy the more the outrage outside of Thuringia increased…
The Prime Minister has finally resigned from the AfD's grace. For a long time he believed that he could hold the office and when the damage to the image increased and the spontaneous demonstrations never ended, he finally reluctantly resigned. This cannot be explained with stupidity alone. Large parts of the CDU in Thuringia remained in secret joy as the outrage increased outside of Thuringia. It unites with the AfD officials the feeling of being set back from the western countries. It is not disappointing to be able to catch up. Even after the Western system was imposed thirty years ago, the social differences remain the same. Up and down are fixed. Some CDU giants have made it into entrepreneurship. The FDP man was able to build his chain of barber shops with mini wages. Even five euros per hour and less were quite common. And a state government that enforces compliance with the minimum wage obligation was not in the sense of the CDU and FDP.
The affect of being set back among small businesses and parts of the petty bourgeoisie was entirely satisfied by the temporary hijacking of the Prime Minister's office. The upper middle class line in the CDU, which does not know this affect, finally prevailed without being able to completely suppress the fermentation on site.
Where does this hatred of the FDP actually come from? Can one justify the destruction of election posters?
The FDP supporters applaud small businesses who manage to get their employees off with minimum wages or less. That is what they mean by a free and liberal market economy. Since Westerwelle's decadence ramblings, the FDP has been stubbornly on a neoliberal course without being ashamed and Lindner is doing even worse. For today's FDP, free and liberal means being able to squeeze the last thing out of the workforce. Fittingly, Kubicki has accepted a mandate to justify the cum ex-crooks
Gone are the days when there were still moral convictions in the FDP and FDP interior ministers stood up for civil rights and rejected surveillance technologies.
Free enterprise in a totalitarian state, the dream of the “free democrats”.
Who would have thought that Erich Mende would rise again in the FDP!
The resistance to the minimum wage explains to some extent the CDU's stance against Ramelow.
Polls now show a drop in the CDU in the voters' favor.
Yes, with the reference to mini-wages the topic is of course not done: one has to consider that Thuringia is the hot spot for right-wing extremism. The armed arm of the AfD, the NSU, is covered here by the judiciary, secret service and police. There are many petty-bourgeois existences here that want to gain a foothold in the bourgeoisie through self-exploitation and end up in one-euro jobs. Who should these people trust?
It is a popular ideological delusion to explain secondary phenomena as fundamental: it is in line with the trend to call the climate crisis the most important question of humanity, behind which the social question is to be regarded as subordinate. These false prophets like Leggewie want to fight right-wing radicalism politically and legally; but they don't even want to discuss the social origin. Basically, these opinion leaders are on par with the deniers of climate change.
