i think here in germany the problems are usually due to varrying levels of corruption, discrimination and nepotism

And to a large degree actually being entirely outdated in terms of worldview.

Over here in Germany we have politicians who plainly do not understand how the world works nowadays. Not even in the "conservative" way but genuinely in a "Holy shit this person is out of touch" way.

Also frightening news is the rise of neo Nazi supporters (AFD voters) over here.

Oh also don't look up our age of consent. It's INTENSELY outdated and not in the good way.

I could definitely see that, and I will defer to your knowledge, I am in no way knowledgeable about modern germanys political situation, nor their media apparatus. What do you think are the biggest issues faced by the general working class in Germany right now? If you don’t have time or don’t care to respond, no worries, I know this kinda stuff can be draining to discuss. If that’s the case, we could chat about something you’re excited for instead, I’m always up to learn something cool!
