Just a heads-up: The fact that they got more votes than any other party doesn't automatically mean that they'll lead the government. An anti-fascist coalition is still possible if the other parties work together. It will be difficult since the conservative party will have to form a coalition with three leftist parties. But it isn't impossible.
One of those leftist parties BSW is almost as fascist. They want to stop supporting Ukraine and get back to buying gas from Russia. I'd put them in the tankie camp.
Are they on Lemmy? Seems like they would fit right in with some crowds here.
BSW are nearly equalky obnoxious. So fuck them and their supporters as well..
You know liberals opposing communists (and working with fascists) is how Hitler got into power right?
They are not communists, though.
I know they probably do suck, but they're better than literal fascists
Too bad there's no other options, just those two parties
Correct, the options are for CDU, BSW, and either Die Linke or SPD to form a coalition, or AFD to form a coalition.
I find it difficult to imagine that BSW could be worse than CDU, whom they'll have to form a coalition with, let alone AfD.
They're not.
They're practically the same but in red instead of brown
Yeah this was my thought too. The word "win" in this context is fairly ambiguous so I won't say it's used wrongly here, but I will say it's probably better to use it to refer to the party that actually ends up forming government. That might be AfD, but at 32% they'll need to find at least 18% of seats to be their junior partner first.
Conservatives are fascists that don't know they can get away with it. It's impossible.
