It was just an example, I wasn’t claiming that it is an exclusive talking point for the left. But then you still would probably agree that an party which ignores such problems isn’t really leftist, nor liberal.

In the name sure. In the party even are some left leaning politicians. But the body of it and our Bundeskanzler, are more centrist than left. The upholding of the status quo is more important for them than improving social situations and tackling leftist points like wealth inequality, so I personally wouldn’t call them left leaning

But the population and therefore our government which get voted from them is more conservative. And that’s not even calculating the swing to the right. And the established far right networks our executive like police, military and intelligent services doesn’t give a picture of a left leaning country. Germany had a good foundation, I give you that, but we have now decades of conservative governments who slowly undermined it.

So maybe left leaning if you compare it to an absolute monarchy, but if you differentiate and look closer, Germany is far from an left leaning country.

Probably, but considering Germany as a left-leaning country is still rich.

It sounds more like your perception of Germany is a little displaced from reality.

But I think what they mean is that the 90% are more affected by it, because proportional it’s a bigger chunk of their income missing.

But I could be wrong

Can’t trust what the brain says, it makes people dumb.

Hobbydrama It was kinda interesting hearing about the inner workings and happenings in hobby’s you never even heard about.
