German Federal Election 23rd February 2025

[Hansmeister]

He was a legend in my home state of Bavaria, when he died he received a royal funeral; however, as much as he was revered in Bavaria he was hated everywhere else. It is just a way of trolling Zanza, as a Saupreuss I'm sure he loathes him.

The only true choice.

A Hansmeister posting ?!?

I have to admit I'm unfamiliar with Strauss.  QUickly googling him I find him to be an interesting right-wing mid-century German politician, but not quite sure of Hans's fascination.

Strauß was before my time, so he is just an unemotional historical figure to me.

The shenanigans of his successor König Maggus do trigger me though. Mainly to laughter.

Didn't know you were Bavarian - I guess that makes sense.

Anyways hope you stick around a bit!

Well, technically Sudetendeutscher, my family were refugees. 

I'll think I'll stick around a bit, my life has taken some interesting turns since retiring from the Army 9 years ago.

Liberals once again performing their historical role re the far-right:

Christian Lindner
@c_lindner
Elon, I've initiated a policy debate inspired by ideas from you and Milei. While migration control is crucial for germany, the AfD stands against freedom, business – and it's a far-right extremist party. Don't rush to conclusions from afar. Let's meet, and I'll show you what the FDP stands for. CL

Elon Musk
@elonmusk
Only the AfD can save Germany

[Zanza]

Lindner seems desperate.
