A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

From your instance, I'm guessing you have limited knowledge of the American political system. I don't mean this as an insult; I couldn't tell you a damn thing about CDU/CSU policies (AfD, of course, is easy to parse). The Democratic Party is just as captured as the Nazi one. It's all corporate money, so the real difference between red states and blue states is politicians in blue states at least pretend to care for the working class.
So you're agreeing with me that this was supported by both parties…?
(I'm actually Austrian, not German; I have however read enough about US politics that I'm fairly confident in my statement above.)
Well, it's not so much about parties but rather "donors" ... which is to say, lobbyists who give not one whit whether there's an R or D after the name if they can get what they want.
