Honestly I hate clouds of strawberry hitting me even more than regular cigarette smoke

I just wanted to say that the differences between Söder and Merz arent that big compared to other people that once were in the talks

The more interesting canidates would have been Günther or Wüst, both of them are currently ruling their states together with the green party and seem happy about what they were able to achieve there. Söder and Merz only differ a bit on how much they love bavaria.

If it's truly "not all men" then you don't need to take everything online at face value if you aren't one of the toxic men that this post is addressing.

Using the word men to criticise only the toxic ones and telling all the ones that aren't toxic to just not feel addressed is pretty weird to me.

Or where that mysterious starvation is coming from that might possibly be going on

I think protesting against the vote of the average Joe in a way that affects the average Joe is quite valid. The politicians got voted for their policies, they wouldn't be doing their jobs if they just shifted their whole position because of a protests that are expressing quite old ideas. The average Joe has to stand up and vote for people that actually want the change we need.

The pressure regarding queer rights was successful because it became a less and less favourable position to be against those same rights in the public view. Being conservative regarding fighting the climate change is still a pretty favourable position so not enough pressure can be built by protests against politicians alone.

And, one aspect that is overlooked in the discussion, at least in my opinion: People are allowed to be angry at the state of the world and the popular opinions, and express that anger publicly and in the face of the general public. This is a valid thing to do.

Maybe I missed it but it seems the average Joe voted for people that are responsible for what's going on right now instead of trying to change direction drastically right?

This isn't about ideas it is about calling for violence towards people. This isn't how you get Nazis this is the "you already have Nazis and need to do something about it"

Also, funnily enough, the proletariat or what's left of it, are the ones currently flocking to the right-wing extremist party here in Germany.

That's an opinion one can have, but it's different from calling everyone that might want a more restrictive policy a nationalist fascist

I think I can say that I am living in germany, currently a country not under the government of national fascists, that has a law against so called "Volksverhetzung" which has been introduced quite literally to prevent some speech of the nationalist fascists, to prevent them from spreading their hateful ideology. Maybe you wanna think about that for awhile.

At some point speech becomes hate speech that actually hurts people. In Germany there are laws against that, I'm sure the US has too.
