Summary
Friedrich Merz, the leader of Germany’s center-right CDU/CSU alliance, is attempting to regain control of the migration debate by courting support from the far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party.
This gambit has backfired, failing to attract AfD voters and instead sowing doubt among mainstream voters about Merz’s ability to govern effectively.
Many Germans fear that this political polarization could lead to a repeat of the Weimar era, where extremist parties gained power.

It is almost like a bunch of wealthy people are orchestrating all this around the world. It is like pre-WWII all over again. I suppose this is the ultimate reason wealth inequality is so bad for society. For some reason when people are worth so much more than others monetarily it goes to their head.
I hope the German people can get through this.
And the Overton Window shifts to the right in Germany.
