Nice summary of some of the highlights of Germany's accelerating descent to a “schwellenland.” Add to this the energy debacle; even without blackouts, the skyrocketing energy prices will drive the industry away, leading to a loss of jobs, and so on.

@true_mxp If I were a mass-killing dictator, I would put a lot of money into the German left. Of course, that never happened.
@hasmis Both the extreme left and the extreme right in Germany love Putin. And a significant part of the center just wants to get back to business as usual (emphasis on “business”) and sees no problem with China either 🤷♂️
@hasmis It’s actually less of a left/right thing, but that only makes it worse: essentially all German parties seem to be hell bent on making the country dependent on dictators and dubious regimes, all the while pontificating about “values.”
