It's a parade float, which could be considered a form of play, so...
Does it? Speak on that more
Who knew World War III might very well be Germany trying to save the world from Nazis.
As a German, I think we should just, for one last great hooray, use all our engineering and science skills into building nukes that will reach their target before the other side can even get their's off the ground. Then we should nuke the whole US and Russia, which will make the world uninhabitable. I know I know nobody will win, but that means people like Trump, Putin, Musk, Erdogan also won't.
The redemption arc.
Sort of like picolo in dragon ball. I mean it's the offspring making amends for their father's transgressions.
The memory of the smell of broiling pork rinds came to me immediately!
1 in 5 people voted for the current nazi party in Germany a couple of weeks ago so... meh
Yes, but those people know better than to tell their co-workers or friends (and even families) that they did, because they'd be treated like the fucking imbeciles they are. Compare that to the US where the MAGAs are the loudest, most outspoken fuckos of all who can't stop advertising their idotic evilness with hats, megaphones, and internet opinions. That's a world apart from what is happening in Germany - so far.
The remaining parties are arresting Jews for antisemitism so its worse than that.
?
They are arresting Jews for being against Jews?
Do you mean arresting German Jewish religious folks for being against Israeli Jewish religious folks?
I think the Jewish part cancels eachother out, so it's just German folks being against Israeli folks.
Better than 1 in 2
We had 84ish% participation US had 64%ish(?) Additionally we had 29% for conservatives, which would be the people in the US voting rep eventhough they would not admit to directly supporting Trump. The gap is smaller than it seems, though plurality in the political system (multiple parties, not winner takes it all) relaxes the situation quite a bit.
Waaaay better.
Better than our 1 out of 3 here in the US.
If we had a two party system in Germany we'd be just as fucked as the US rn but people here aren't ready to hear it.
Hmm, you could also say that fewer parties means less "protest voting".
Leading to more non voters which was the main thing that put Trump in office
Painfully true. The people who didn't vote in protest of Biden/Harris to allow a guy in that would do exactly what they were made at Biden for but far worse is so frustrating. I get it, they weren't perfect, but damn. Demanding your leaders be better or else we'll unleash the nazi authoritarian on ourselves is wild.
It was 1 out of 5 people who voted, so 1 out of 2 in the US. I’m sorry, but just that’s just the way things are. Voting turnout matters, but it’s not like the people that didn’t vote would’ve all voted democrat.
That's fair, I don't accept its a 50% split, no way. Nit only were there a lot that didn't turn out. There were a lot who were disenfranchised and couldn't vote at all.
What I wouldn't give for if only 1 in 5 voted for the nazi party in America.
Kinda loses its sting given how many years Germans have been making floats of Trump like this, though. Good sentiment, but I wish it amounted to something.
Not to say it's a waste of time or they shouldn't do this, but I'm just tired, boss.
Here's the thing, tRUMP and his cronies want you to be tired of it. They want you to say 'meh, this does nothing'. They want you to accept it and move on wearily. Once enough people are worn down by it all then it will become normal and accepted.
That is how the convicted criminal and rapist 'wins'.
It's nice to see you're not alone in your thoughts, that the world is crazy not you.
But yeah that's about it :(
Yea, I can vibe with the Germans...just wish I could read their memes LMFAO
You FEEL the memes, not read them.
French train for some reason.
I know right, why couldn't they find a German train munching on hay??
Delicious.
Atta girl
Cmon, man....Noes?
It’s not the spit roast I was hoping for but I guess it’ll have to do.
Username checks out
I guarantee it's much more satisfying; even for you.
The best part of eating the rich is the belly crackling
Would be better with an effigy of elon stood in front of him - with his pants down.
Don't forget Putin bringing up the rear!
A proper pig spitroast
They do need a very large pine tree trunk. Stick it up the pre-lubed asshole. Then just push until it rips a hole between the legs. Lol. Terrible. I need to go do something. As I understand this week he laid waste to the department of edumakation. Anything else? Nuked the moon? Sunk the Mexican fishing fleet? Killed all orcas? Ran over his own puppy's leg, chopped it off, then ran over the other three? I'd believe anything now.
And I got downvoted to oblivion for saying Germans know how to deal with Nazis, lol
Germany is a nazi
Confuzed-ius, is that you?
