MODERATORS
Damn I didn't realize it was getting bad over there as well, I thought the CDU was still sane (even if it was corrupt). I guess it was a question of time
After the last election they went full on populism and basically run the same platform as the AfD now. Including a made up migration crisis, and claims the new government would make it too easy for people to work in Germany. Meanwhile we need 400k more people to migrate to Germany every year, just to replace the people retiring. Also people from the CSU went to visit Ron DeSantis in Florida to take inspiration from him. And that includes his anti LGBT platform with all the made up bullshit surrounding it.
Now that I think about it, this is exactly what happened in the UK where the Conservative party stole the rhethoric of the populist brexit party (UKIP), and won.
