He get's two more rounds of voting, and will likely be elected in the third round. Otherwise the CDU/CSU will have to forward another candidate, since the election was for the party, not the candidate, they remain the strongest party and could propose anyone to be elected chancellor. But this might crash out the proposed coalition government if they think that the SPD cannot keep its promise to vote for him.

And the inevitable decline of neoliberal politics. People have been taught and indoctrinated by the media, that the right is economically proficcient but hindered by the left. And now they double down on neoliberal bullshit politics because not going hard enough didn't help them and going more left is generally presented as an economically worse choice.

The sad truth is: Going more left would leave "the economy" (the stocks / rich peoples wallets) worse of but help the real economy by giving expendable income to people who right now, cannot spend what they don't have.

I believe it's the most common cause of death for old whales (for all whales it's sadly collisions with ships). They become too weak to swim to the surface and then just sink into the deep... horrible way to go.

Did you know:

Whales don't have to strain to hold their breath, they have no drowning-reflex and don't breath automatically, they can only breath consciously. So while land mammals usually will start gasping for air when still underwater for too long. Whales will not.

This means whales don't drown (because drowning means inhaling water), they rather asphyxiate underwater if they can not reach the surface.

It's just one more point of evidence

Fuck this shit, this is intentionally vague to be used as a cudgel

Did not call you a bot, but I have read your comments before and flagged your username as someone who appears left-aligned, but unreasonable, pro russian and anti-NATO when it comes to the russian war of aggression against Ukraine.

This is, I presume also the main point in your opposition to the german Greens, a party very much aligned with a free Ukraine and opposed to russian imperial aggression.

Because from my point of view, it looks like in your worldview everything western, everything touched by the US, everything that opposed the eastern block in any way is tainted by imerialism. Your comments lack any evidence of nuance or understanding that both the west and the east were and are are ruled by horrible people and good people trying their best. I'm forced to fucking both-sides-ism upon reading your history, because your radical positions lack so much dearly needed nuance.

First the election and now this, Canada can't stop winning

Hmm, honestly, I feel like that isn't necessarily the case and often connected to the audience, especially if such a comment is offtopic.

Personally I have felt that on Lemmy effort and care are very much appreciated. But there is a breaking point in regards to the insightfulness and the length of the comment. Like there needs to be at least X amount of new and interestimg information per paragraph.

Upvoting the selection of truly impactful comic books. Guess my collection is missing Saga. Thank you for that.

This account is a known pro-russia anti-liberal troll.

Don't feed it. plonk

Because the servers are subject to their respective national laws and regulations and the governments are all to happy to take down uppity servers full of people who are opposed to those governments.

The rules regulating speech on our servers are not there to protect the rich or the system, they are there to protect the servers, so we can continue to call for direct action, even if we can't outright call for violence.

It's either regulated speech or no speech at all.
