The diversity of parties all too often is an illusion to trick the masses. Its like in the GDR, where they had an "Einheitsfront" (united front) of several parties - who all submissevely always agreed with and obeyed the only one party that counted, the SED. Thats why I never talk of party in plural when refering to such construction. The diversity is just deception.

If somebody would ask me for the differences (in substance) between the SPD, the CDU, the Greens and the FDP, I must admit I would fail to describe profound differences, they are only on the surface, the basic orientations are the same for all of them. They all depend so strongly on each other now (to form coaltiions) that they all must tolerate and copy the ways and goals of the other. By that they delete their individual differences, and define themselves only by what they agree on with all others. They all therefore are four times one and the same thing with only marginal cosmetical differences. Thats why none of them is neither willing nor capable to adress systematic issues even if these turn into major threats to the country's wellbeing. In my opinion the Bundestag holds such a "Einheitsfront" like there was in the DDR-Volkskammer, the main actor is not a single party like the SED, but the Green-woke Zeitgeist to which they all submit.

One of the very few German politicians for whom I had a certain grade of respect: Richard von Weizsäcker, a man of high education and culture. He said, and I quoted that before but it is so damn true in most if not all of the West: "The political parties have made the state their prey." Party before the state. Party before the people. Party before the common good.

Trust none of them, you will get betrayed.
