      BSW is no SED-Clone. BSW is a personal cult for Sahra Wagenknecht very populistic, pro workers ( which are left positions) but also pro putin and anti migration (which are all but left positions).

      Also, Die Linke (left wing party) has no ties to Russia since Wagenknecht and her peers left.

      And stop that “BoTh SiDeS” BS. It has no merit and is a false narrative.

          Honestly, this is why using only a left-right axis to describe politics is inadequate. If the term wasn’t prestressed, BSW would be literally National Socialist (but please don’t use that term, because, you know, Hitler, and she’s far from that).

          Oh and BSW being a SED clone is regarding Wagenknecht being a SED politician and her very close ties into the Kremlin.

          That’s oversimplifying if I’ve ever seen oversimplifying. To the point of disinformation. Wagenknecht wasn’t allowed to study because she clashed with the regime, was accused of a hunger strike during military training and joined SED *half a year before the Wall fell with the intention of reforming it. And licking Putin’s boots is not enough to be an SED clone.

          Dude, get your facts straight or shut it.

              Lol. I never said National Socialist was left, I said BSW is not left. It is not considered left in the german political landscape (except by right wing nutjobs like AfD).

              I got my political knowledge straight, you’re making stuff up.

              BSW has too many positions that are not considered left (their stance towards migration alone is all but left). And where are it’s authoritarian positions?

              You’re throwing around a lot of terms that don’t mean what you think they mean.

      BSW isn’t really left wing, let alone a “hardcore SED” clone.
