USA, Canada / Will Americans flee from the US to Poland? [186]


My theory: Leftism generally is an ideology for the well fed academia! It's no accidence that Communism was developed by Marx/Engels back then in Germany, as the german speaking region has been somewhat top dog socially and economically, leading in chair farters.

Now the wealth and comfort focus has shifted to the US and the english speaking West...but since the breakdown 1989 and the to liberating masses liberated themselves totally uplanned from the actual existing Socialism/Communism the whole ideology needed to be reworked, got a new name and some modifications fitting the Zeitgeist...and voila!

.....and frankly give a ****!

USA, Canada / Will Americans flee from the US to Poland? [186]

Exactly!

But these refugees want to drive cars, want to buy artificial products, want to eat meat and lots of it, they are a big part for our western industries continuing success, the consumers keep coming.

They for sure don't want to live in wood or stone huts, eat plants and seeds, drive bicycles and wear self made clothing from free living animals....they could lead lifes with barely any carbon-footprint at all at home, but that is what they want to escape from.

All this open borders - refugees welcome crap is as self destructive to any green movement in the western countries like nothing else....these people keep the fossils burning!

Thing is, it will be people like Musk who will "save" the world....you know?

No Gender-speecher....no LBQTsomething-people.....no wokeism will be any help when the big climate change really starts changing the planet and our environments.

No socialist will be able to do anything! It will be the engineers who will develop the needed high-tech....it will be the scientists finding new ways to save mankind...it will be the "doer"....the "maker"....not the "pen-pusher" and nice-talker.

Musk with his money, his brains, his ambitions, his big plans belongs to the very few people who could do something to stop the worst, or at least help us to survive it all....that talk of boykotting him because of politicial differences sounds abit well....funny...knowing all that! Or not so funny at all...

.....Mr. Musk, by contrast, has consistently said he thinks climate change is a problem - although he has sometimes wavered on how urgent that problem is. He has long been a major proponent of shifting to low-emissions technology like solar power, batteries and electric vehicles..

Looking back and comparing....that WAS unusual in the european history, wasn't it....the occupied being better off than the occupier!

But the near-western-standard-land-of-our-dreams hat been always Hungary, the #1 in the whole socialist bloc, for Germans at least....for Poles too?

....not on a personal level....and it's that which makes always all the differences!

PS: I later heard several times that a stationing in the GDR was seen by the common Russian also as the main Lottery prize! Hard to get, especially without connections...:)

News / Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [1442]


Eastern Germans felt privileged compared to the here stationed "Ivan", we didn't felt especially opressed by them, rather pitied them....as I grew up the GDR was better off than the "Motherland of the Socialism"...we had a higher living standard as even seen in Moskau, were better fed....that wasn't your usual "occupied country", I guess....especially not compared to what we Germans did in our "zones of occupations" only a few decades earlier.

I don't want to paint a to rosy picture here, there were surely difficulties, but then came Perestroika and especially Gorbatschow and Germany, yes the whole of us, East and West, just fell in love, you can't explain it otherwise...and frankly said, if it were only about our leadership we would still suffer that drearyness of Honecker and his gang of arseholes...but Gorbatschow didn't want to send the Panzers even as East-Berlin asked him too to save them and we will never forget that...

Yeah...Germans! :)

Merkel? Well....she destroyed the CDU as only someone from the inner core could.....as did Schröder before for the SPD, and he too could only do it as leader, as Chancellor! And as the SPD it will take ages for the CDU to get over this, to repair the damage....without Merkel pushing the CDU so far to the left, there would be no AfD today....not existing and surely not as powerful.
Most of the current AfD voter are former, before-Merkel, REAL conservative CDU-Voter!

The damage this woman brought us has no end.....but asked how she thinks today about her rulership she sees nothing wrong with it.....what a *****!

I am a natural CDU voter....but first Merz has to prove that he isn't a Merkel #2!

@maf

Exactly the opposite is true!

For 40 years one half of the country got nothing but anti-Eastern education....anti-commi....anti-russian....even anti-eastern-German....anything pro western...pro USian!

Fo 40 years the other half got nothing but pro socialist education...pro Soviet/pro Russian....anti-western....anti USian....

West-Germans did learn English in school...Eastern Germans did learn Russian in school.....West-Germans did live together with USian troops....got to know them....East-Germans did live with russian troops together....did got to know them (even if not at the same level at the Wessis and their Amis)

West-German schools had friendship with western schools in western countries....West-German towns had partnerships with other western towns and cities....East-German towns and schools were bonded with eastern towns and schools...lotsa contacts with russian people over the times...

Don't forget that!

News / Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [1442]


No....she was an Ossi!

For us Ossis the west Parties like CDU, FDP or SPD and later the Greens meant not the same....not the same historical bonding, the same politicial understanding. After the wall fell it was like a Bazaar.....and people chose for many reasons....Merkel was as much CDU as I would be a Green....it was a way for her to make a career....and because she was seen as catholic....but that all had not the same meaning or importance like in the West....hence the new eastern party PDS later....

Merkel made politics after the polls and only as far as she could see the horizon, she didn't care for anything and anybody, no principles, nothing....and at that times the Greens were up and rising....and that thinking took hold and gained support....and it was so easy....Nord Stream 2 was being build, nobody thought Putin would become a warmonger...so....make ourselves a slave of some other country, why the hell not? If it gains me the next chancellorship too...*shrugs*

PS: CDU, SPD, FDP and also the Greens are still seen as purely western parties, with barely any members in the East at all...curiously the AfD is seen as more of an eastern party, even as she was founded in the West too...the only truly eastern Party, the Linke (former PDS) is probably actually dying out, it's members are getting to old!

News / Will PiS be happy if AfD wins elections in Germany? [1442]


Main points/differences....

Merkel (CDU) made left/green policy and did set everything on the cheap energy from Russia and did the one stupid thing no one else did, started the ending of our nuclear plants as the Greens demanded....now we are left with figuratively NOTHING....our whole highly developed industrialized country is now de-industrialized, energy starved to death....everybody now: THANK YOU!!!!

So...after that surge to the left under Merkel we truly need a surge to the right again, but that only means a more natural positioning in the center of the politics again. The whole green/leftist thing was really truly bad for our country! Only hardcore leftist can see anything good innit....and of course the trans people....but everybody else suffers!
