Factory owners who built their success on the back of fossil fuels whining about them missing the switch to relevant markets.
It's always the others who are at fault, never themselves. Those companies deserve to go bust. They deserved to go bust years ago, but the conservative government saved the car industry time and time again, until they could not save them anymore. In the meantime public infrastructure is rotting away. Schools are crumbling under the students asses, bridges are getting demolished so whole regions are cut off from the Autobahn network, trains are constantly broken because they don't get maintained properly, poor people can barely afford rent and the nazis are back in the parliament.
What a great country to live in.
The worst thing is, this is not an outlier. A lot of countries are equally mismanaged and also focus on electing the worst people to fix that situation (populists usually) while hating those who are trying to improve things because they don't want things to change.
Glad we are not the only idiots in the world.
