The German government is one of the most suppressive in the western world in regards to protests against a literal genocide happening right now in Gaza. A genocide legally labeled as such by institutions erected as a result of Germany’s genocide. Branding wise, Germany is extremely progressive, but in principle and practice, it is extremely sad to see how little Germany has come along.
That applies to all G7.
Funny how Isreal and Germany switched roles.
Germany’s AfD is the second biggest party.
Except Israel, of course
This is a traditional carnival wagon. this does not mean we have a spine.
I don’t understand the image. MAGA is cooking Trump? What?
The image is what it is: Trump being spitroasted like a fat greasy pig.
It could be a play on “eat the rich” or a form of tortuous death wished upon him or even an overtly offensive depiction of him. Or even something else.
It’s art, one way or another, and art is for the consumer to wonder about and, hopefully, at.
Who knew World War III might very well be Germany trying to save the world from Nazis.
They would be worried about their own Nazis more if that were the case. I’ll take the help but lord they are not ok right now.
The redemption arc.
Sort of like picolo in dragon ball. I mean it’s the offspring making amends for their father’s transgressions.
As a German, I think we should just, for one last great hooray, use all our engineering and science skills into building nukes that will reach their target before the other side can even get their’s off the ground. Then we should nuke the whole US and Russia, which will make the world uninhabitable. I know I know nobody will win, but that means people like Trump, Putin, Musk, Erdogan also won’t.
Just roll out the fallout
It’s a parade float, which could be considered a form of play, so…
Does it? Speak on that more
1 in 5 people voted for the current nazi party in Germany a couple of weeks ago so… meh
Yes, but those people know better than to tell their co-workers or friends (and even families) that they did, because they’d be treated like the fucking imbeciles they are. Compare that to the US where the MAGAs are the loudest, most outspoken fuckos of all who can’t stop advertising their idotic evilness with hats, megaphones, and internet opinions. That’s a world apart from what is happening in Germany - so far.
Better than 1 in 2
1.04 in 2
We had 84ish% participation US had 64%ish(?) Additionally we had 29% for conservatives, which would be the people in the US voting rep eventhough they would not admit to directly supporting Trump. The gap is smaller than it seems, though plurality in the political system (multiple parties, not winner takes it all) relaxes the situation quite a bit.
Waaaay better.
What I wouldn’t give for if only 1 in 5 voted for the nazi party in America.
The remaining parties are arresting Jews for antisemitism so its worse than that.
?
They are arresting Jews for being against Jews?
Do you mean arresting German Jewish religious folks for being against Israeli Jewish religious folks?
I think the Jewish part cancels eachother out, so it’s just German folks being against Israeli folks.
Protesting Israel in Germany is legally antisemitic even if you are Jewish. Many German Jews have been protesting Israels genocide and were arrested for antisemitism.
Because laws can’t discriminate. The laws designed to protect them are harming them. Ironic.
Everyone else in Europe can be as anti Israel as we like. Why? We didn’t holocaust 6 million Jews.
Better than our 1 out of 3 here in the US.
It was 1 out of 5 people who voted, so 1 out of 2 in the US. I’m sorry, but just that’s just the way things are. Voting turnout matters, but it’s not like the people that didn’t vote would’ve all voted democrat.
That’s fair, I don’t accept its a 50% split, no way. Nit only were there a lot that didn’t turn out. There were a lot who were disenfranchised and couldn’t vote at all.
If we had a two party system in Germany we’d be just as fucked as the US rn but people here aren’t ready to hear it.
Hmm, you could also say that fewer parties means less “protest voting”.
Leading to more non voters which was the main thing that put Trump in office
Painfully true. The people who didn’t vote in protest of Biden/Harris to allow a guy in that would do exactly what they were made at Biden for but far worse is so frustrating. I get it, they weren’t perfect, but damn. Demanding your leaders be better or else we’ll unleash the nazi authoritarian on ourselves is wild.
Yeah I mean he won the popular vote with less total votes than what he got in 2016 where he didn’t manage to win it. It’s wild. But ultimately maybe something like this was inevitable. The US government is extremely easy to dismantle compared to most others since the president holds so much power. And no president would change the system to become less powerful.
Yea, I can vibe with the Germans…just wish I could read their memes LMFAO
I’m actually learning German so the memes are now a test of my German knowledge
You FEEL the memes, not read them.
French train for some reason.
I know right, why couldn’t they find a German train munching on hay??
Delicious.
Atta girl
The memory of the smell of broiling pork rinds came to me immediately!
Kinda loses its sting given how many years Germans have been making floats of Trump like this, though. Good sentiment, but I wish it amounted to something.
Not to say it’s a waste of time or they shouldn’t do this, but I’m just tired, boss.
Good sentiment, but I wish it amounted to something.
They’re halfway around the world from the US, outside of IBCM, what else are they supposed to do? It’s up to the Americans to do something.
Here’s the thing, tRUMP and his cronies want you to be tired of it. They want you to say ‘meh, this does nothing’. They want you to accept it and move on wearily. Once enough people are worn down by it all then it will become normal and accepted.
That is how the convicted criminal and rapist ‘wins’.
You’re not wrong but I’d also look at it from the perspective of “We’ve been making statements like this for years now and the situation has only gotten worse, so what else should we be doing?” Status quo isn’t really just the result of people giving up, it’s about things remaining the same (or worse) even after trying, so what else should be tried?
Action. Stop trying to play nice and talk it through and start burning things down.
Then again it’s easy for me to say this as I am not American. I don’t live in America, and no longer want to visit America.
I’m just a guy who fucking hates that fat orange turd and wishes him dead. Even better would’ve been prison.If I was locked up in a room with a gun and one bullet and there was Hitler and tRUMP inside with me then Hitler would survive. Or I’d shoot Hitler and beat Mango Mussolini with the gun.
It’s nice to see you’re not alone in your thoughts, that the world is crazy not you.
But yeah that’s about it :(
It’s not the spit roast I was hoping for but I guess it’ll have to do.
Username checks out
I guarantee it’s much more satisfying; even for you.
The best part of eating the rich is the belly crackling
Would be better with an effigy of elon stood in front of him - with his pants down.
Don’t forget Putin bringing up the rear!
A proper pig spitroast
Cmon, man…Noes?
