  • Yep, but who’s going to give them a better option? Western citizens would have to vote for governments that don’t consider exploitation a “necessary evil” and for politicians that want enforcement of a fair trade supply chain. A prosperous Africa would mean more legal and most importantly highly skilled immigration.

    But western citizens aren’t willing to accept higher prices for goods as a result, so they don’t vote that way. Instead it’s easier to consume indiscriminately and whine when the people living in squalor dare look for a better life abroad.








  • Lol, sure. Look at the parties will form a coalition there. Wikipedia says CDU is center right (23%), Linke is far left (12% --> 35%)), SPD is supposedly social democratic and progressive (6% --> 41%), and BSW is all over the spectrum (15% -->56%). The only thing they have in common is that they are political parties.

    I wouldn’t be surprised by AfD + CDU + BSW, honestly. They are politically much closer together than the other possible coalition.


  • Nothing will change except more people feeling emboldened by the results. This isn’t going to change much for non-whites in the state. If they were treated badly before, they’ll continue to be treated badly now. That isn’t going to change.

    But I bet this party won’t achieve much in the next 4 years. Germany is a federation, Thuringia is a state. There’s not much AfD can do at that level that wouldn’t be rejected at national level, maybe even already by the state court. They can’t change the constitution, they can’t “ban immigrants” from their state, in short they can’t implement their “program”.

    It’ll be a constant fight to get anything through and after 4 years, I bet they’ll have very little to show for it. All they’ll do is blame the other party for not cooperating.




  • Maybe you should’ve read it too…

    First page:

    7.4% of all registered suspects were immigrants (2021: 7.1%)

    4.9% of all registered victims were immigrants (2021: 5.2%)

    The number of refugees had also barely risen between 2016 (1.5M at end of refugee “crisis”) and 2021 (1.7M), but jumped to 2.8M with 1M coming from Ukraine.

    Additionally, the document isn’t good as it keeps mixing up “immigrants” and “refugees”, so you never know if it’s talking about some dude from Spain or a dude from Syria.

    I’m also guessing TVZ means something like immigrant or refugee or something?

    Solved crime cases against life (murder?)

    | year | total | including at least on TVZ | | 2018 | 3007 | 430 (14,3%) | | 2019 | 2751 | 357 (13,0%) | | 2020 | 2947 | 370 (12,6%) | | 2021 | 2635 | 366 (13,9%) | | 2022 | 2732 | 332 (12,2%) |

    The number of crimes (and those committed by “TVZ”) is dropping despite the number of immigrants/refugees increasing.


    Dude, stop using ChatGPT and actually a document by yourself once in a while.
