“Declining connectivity” in Germany?
I wonder why.
It costs over four thousand euros for a commercial aircraft to leave a German airport. In other European countries it costs as little as 500 euros. Some say this has to do with German regulation and “green kerosene” madness but I’m sure there must be a more… reasonable explanation.
Lufthansa CEO concerned more airlines will cut German routes – After airlines such as Eurowings and Ryanair have cut back their connections in Germany due to excessive fees and costs, Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr fears a negative impact on Germany as a place to do business.

It’s kind of like the 80-20 rule
Only different.
Whereas with the 80-20 Rule (aka Pareto Principle) 80% of a company’s revenue is generated by 20% of its customers, when it comes to German elections, 80% of voters are very conservative regarding certain issues (“irregular” migration, for instance) but are ruled by 20% of those who aren’t.

Green energy is fun!
In Green Unicornland, maybe.
But in real countries like Germany where you have to pay real subsidies you can’t afford to pay anymore, that’s where the fun must eventually stop.
Germany’s Ballooning Subsidy Costs Show Challenge of Going Green – Subsidies are draining budget as green power appeal surges Shift may set tone for others contemplating cost of transition.

How Germany’s far right won over young voters?
Duh. By not being far left.
Much less far left batshit crazy.
AfD: How Germany’s far right won over young voters – For the first time, 16-year-olds in Germany were able to vote in the 2024 European Parliament elections. The far-right populist Alternative for Germany party’s targeted social media campaign appears to have paid off.
The far-right populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) made gains in almost all age groups in the 2024 European elections, but its biggest success was among young people. In the last EU election, in 2019, one in three voters younger than 24 chose the Green Party, and the far-right AfD garnered just 5% of the young vote.
Write this down and look back in a year from now…
And nothing, absolutely nothing will have changed.
The people who say it know it. The people who hear it know it. The people who commit these crimes know it.

We deceived for the greater good
Because our ideology said we could.
Green deception isn’t like normal deception. It’s cleaner. And renewable.
German ministers quizzed over nuclear phase out ‘deception’ – A political magazine alleged that the Economy Ministry hid expert advice supporting the extension of Germany’s remaining nuclear power plants. Two ministers defended their decision to a parliamentary committee.
Cicero magazine reported a day earlier that officials from the environmentally friendly Green Party had acted in a “deceptive” manner by ignoring expert advice and seeking to proceed with the phase-out of nuclear energy, which had been planned since 2011…
Habeck’s viewpoint conflicted with advice from experts who said that nuclear power could help save the use of gas and avoid a power crisis, just as Germany was trying to cut its dependence on Russian energy.
