i work at a concentration camp memorial and i struggle talking with students about gaza because i know most of my co-workers (and the teachers) don’t share my views or would even consider them antisemitic. of course i can speak freely but that sums up the absurdity of the situation in germany. i want to talk about what we can actually learn from history - the dehumanization, the construction of a threat that needs to be eliminated so the nation can live etc. - and yet the most prominent example of how these mechanisms work is taboo
Dude, obviously netanjahu isn‘t hitler. if you watched this video you should know that the so called erinnerungskultur oftentimes is a shell, a state narrative and completely unreflected. if we wanna learn from historic fascism we have to understands its mechanisms, the normalization of violence, also real antisemitism of course. but am i supposed to tell palestinian students that their pain doesn’t count because it doesn’t fit into the german staatsraison?
@@ap2158 Yes, it's quite uncomfortable to not be able to be nice and truthful at the same time. It's not my fault that it is a fact, that Hamas wants to destroy Israel. And that most of this Palestinian students actually are antisemites. Maybe you should talk to your collegues. The nay have some advise how to handle the situation.
The fact that you genuinely seem to think you can speak "freely" about said things is clear proof that you yourself are brainwashed. Damn, the pervasiveness of brainwashing and chauvinistic/exceptionalist view of western European "culture" really is insane... Generally, I'd say, European people trying help the world and fight US imperialism and hegemony should do one thing: STFU Seriously, finding a good take, even among "leftists", from westerners, is like finding a needle in a haystack.
I'm German myself and my brain just shuts off whenever I hear any German official talk about "Israel". There's only so much zionist propaganda and genocide apologia a person can stomach.
even if I, as a German leftist, do not identify with this part of the left-wing scene in Germany, it is a certain form of embarrassment when people abroad learn about what is going on here in Germany...

Many years ago i was in an austrian "radical" left student group. Non-hierachical, anti-racist, feminist (...) all the good stuff. In a plenum we discussed the upcoming anniversary of Israel's establishment and some wanted to organise a (pro-israel) event. (i was pretty new to this group) I told them that i thought it's strange to praise any nation whatsoever and given it's lead by a right wing fundamentalist, even more strange. What followed was getting debated down by two people while the rest remained silent - they weren't super harsh or anything but the undertone of me just being a bit of an uneducated idiot that (unkowingly) enables anti-semitism was pretty clear. After that was over, members told me - in secret - that they kinda agree, but that that's something i just can not say or debate. This should have shaken me a lot more than it did back then.
@@KarlSnarksCommon sense, every group have hierarchy! Societies are divided into hierarchy! That why commons sense is so lacking! Study ideology make people live in fantasy, not real life! People rarely follow the ideology once they have power in their hand! Only selfish ambition remains! You can’t manage a group without hierarchy!
@@paulminh3525 yeah thats why there is anarchist groups who actually try to manage power imbalances. these post autonomous, anti auth. commie groups are just claiming to be democratic. they are just cults like the auth. groups. most small political groups are cults, if you like it or not. Anarchist have a destinction between warrented and unwarrented hierarchy, e.g. someone is really good in smth of course they will teach people in this thing, which is a logical hierarchy. most post autonomous groups are being led by manipulating idiots who cannot step outside of their ideology and are just elitist pieces of shit. like fr how many of these groups we have seen and they are all the laughing stock of anarchists. it has come to the point were i feel better working with leninists, bc they are atleast honest, we both know we are enemies. these post autonomists are just trying to take anarchist aesthetics to cover their authoritarian leaning and they are lying all day. no anarchist takes smbdy seriously who defends a states right to exist. (in difference to a nation/ethnicity -> free palestine of course)
@@paulminh3525 1) sure, the words of some people will always carry more weight than others regarding topics - i don't want my plumber to program a website and i don't want a programmer to mess with my piping. That's not what non-hierachical means. 2) using "Common Sense" and "Natural" as arguments is circle-logic. It's also common sense & natural for sons to kill their fathers, but we largely stoped doing that because it's stupid. 3) Organisation requieres structures and responsibilities. I've been working for a long time now and in my experience strict hierachy really hinders problem solving and the further "Up" someone is, the more immune they get to consequences of their actions and the more detachted they get from reality which is very bad for an organisation as a whole.

The first genocide committed by a fascist regime was against Arabs, as part of a colonization project. This isn't remembered enough. The Libyan genocide.
The Armenian Genocide was the first genocide by fascist regime, The Young turk government was the very definition of layman's fascism, They intended to genocide the Eastern Christians, The Greeks, The Kurds and the Armenian to make way for a pan-turkic empire stretching from Anatolia to western China
@@jelenahegser445 But he's said an actual fascism regime. In this case, Mussolini in Lybia in the 30s, when he imprisoned the whole Lybian population in concentration camps, and tried to perform colonisation by Italians. It failed, fortunately.
Especially as a German I appreciate you and your work so much! Not only did I learn so much because of your work in general but especially on this topic. I always have so many thoughts about how insane germans are when it comes to Israel, zionism, antisemitism and racism towards Arab people but I'm a bit stupid and not able to put all these thoughts together coherently. And it surely doesn't help that it's almost impossible to talk about this in a normal manner outside if my close circle of friends and to witness the daily racism and discrimination my Muslim and Arab friends are facing. I can only imagine how they truly feel. So thank you for all the great work you're doing, Bruder!
In US, and thanks so much for sharing. When one is wrapped in soundproof hasbara for years, it takes some courage to break free of it. And then our bribed politicians don't listen to us.
You're not stupid! Stupid people don't go out of their way to separate lies from facts at a cost to their own time and, in some cases, safety. Be proud of seeking the truth!
The left here in germany is really divided on this topic but a lot of especially young people are waking up and are supporting the Palestinian fight for freedom
There would be more support from other leftists, if the pro-palestinians would outcall Hamas/Hezbolla as what they are.. But blaming only the israeli government (or the country / jews as whole) is just black and white-thinking (and sometimes antisemitic) and leaving out to much context.
@ I understand your point but the issue doesn’t start with hamas. They are product of the Israeli oppression and if Palestinians had a right to a decent life they wouldn’t exist
@@hendrx I'd agree that there might be acteurs in Israel, that fantasize about a palestinian genocide, but to conceal the fact that these terrorist groups want a genocide themselves against the jews, heavily damages credibility.
@@xXFe_LixXx As a German I do call them what they are: the resistance against oppression, apartheid, ethnic cleansing and genocide. And as a German you should know that the methods used by the resistance against the 3. Reich have been at times extremely violent and gruesome, but still completely justified.
Nah they were very much socialist as well. A lot of their policies and programs are what all the leftists are asking to get implemented in today’s society but they won’t ever read an uncensored book to find out just how much they share in common with the nationalist socialist party
please don't even make this "joke", it's not accurate and some weird right-wingers use it as a fairytale. It was also used as a strategy by the NSDAP...
No country ever did! We have it worse then the 1940s. The good things we have compared to back then, is only because after the 1940s politicians actually pushed lots of progressive legislation And i am not talking about speciric countries. It's generally what's happening EVERYWHERE
Western Germany supported Israell before 1967, because many shnazies hid in it from communists of USSR. In 1967 USA put Andropov - Filkenstein as the head of KGB in USSR, covertly...
Its crazy that I never learned about the Genocide of the Herero and Nama when it was our country that perpetrated it. We talk about the holocaust a lot, and I mean a lot (and yes I can understand, since it was truly a horrifying event) but I have never heard anyone talk about it. I only know about it from the internet and started to research it by myself.
@@philippdrescher6012 Because it was never seen as that until recently. It was a war like any other. And that's long over nobody today deservers anything today because of that. Germany was rebuilt two times since then itself.
there's a red grafitti writing "viva palestina" arround the block. It's crossed with a black graffiti with an anarchy symbol being painted with the same black spray right next to it. It makes me cringe everytime I drive pass it.
Criticizing Israel is an absolute taboo here in Germany, and it is immediately equated with antisemitism. Now with the war-crimes being obvious the taboo has sometimes lifted ever so slightly..

Absolitly not, what are you talking about. Basic Support of palistine is pretty wide spread. Just bc i Support the freedom of palistine doesnt mean i have to Support the eradication of Israel. This is however what a lot of the vocal palistine supporters do!
@@giftzwerg7345 I agree, but that's not how it is discussed. For example take the Berlinale where two Israeli citizens (one of Palestinian origin) explained that two sets of laws are applied to them. Afterwards they were denounced, people had to defend that they were clapping for them, even though nothing antisemitic (and also nothing against the existence of the state of Israel) had been said there. The original speech as well as the takes of different media can easily be found here on RUclips.
@@giftzwerg7345When people talk about the fall of Israel they mean the fall of the apartheid and the creation of a democratic, secular, multiethnic state as opposed to what is, in the words of Yitzak Rabin "less than a state" in the West Bank and Jerusalem which has been denounced as apartheid and Israel proper that treats the Palestinian Citizens of Israel as lesser than. Suggesting that this means genocide of the Jewish population is as ridiculous as saying that the fall of apartheid in South Africa would result in white genocide as claimed by defenders of apartheid at the time.
People really need to stop dividing people into "left" or "right". There are Germans with all kinds of political views who are against the genozide comitted by Israel. Germany isn't a single opinion. The German "left" isn't a single opinion. Why is that so hard to understand?
@@qlintenFXnazis called resistance ''terrorists'' whenever they had to face it... Maybe calling Palestinian resistance ''terrorist'' is not enough to pretend to analyse and understand what is going on.

The memory culture is one of the main red flags when it comes to German institutional racism. Why remember one ethnic group’s genocide and not another?

I was making fun of zionists on tiktok when one of them asked me to "name a palestinian king". Just an insane goal post move from the question of germans supporting colonialization yet again.
The consensus is that he's a German of Turkish descent. Before I saw that, I assumed he was Italian. He doesn't in fact nail every pronunciation, but then, nobody does.
Being German has not felt so embarrassing and isolating in a long time. I've never been so sure about leaving, I just don't know where to because most places seem screwed ._.
"Forever united in gen*" well put. The German government should remind us what happened to the Herero and Nama people. I'm pretty sure Rosa Luxemburg detailed it pretty well over a century ago so surely reparations are just around the corner there
"Die Linke" has changed it perspective on sanctions on Israel at least. But still some older party members support Israel unconditionally. But the party has changed a lot recently with the exit of all the BSW authoritarianist and populists
Funny because as far as I know, Sahra Wagenknecht is the only prominent German politician who openly calls out Israel on what they do - and yet, you can't stop yourself from crapping on her while giving a pat to Linke.
@@glapanowski because she cant understand in the case of the ukraine war that russia did start that war and needs to be punished for it, and in terms of migration she wants the wrong policies that are not humanitarian imo aswell. It is clear that her solution is populist in terms of seeing what germans want and going with that, and its authoritarian because she clearly doesnt want to punish Putin the warmongor for his war crimes in ukraine adequately.
How about instead of making antisemitism some vague political buzzword, Germany actually somehow dealt with the very real antisemitism in its population. I went to school in Germany and I have heard „du Jude“ ( you Jew) as an insult and heard the undesired last sip of a beer or spezi (you know, the one that people say is mostly saliva) referred to as the „Judenschluck“ (Jew sip) and things like that rather frequently.
The irony is Germans are still anti-semite but now chose a different semite as their target i.e the Arabs instead of Jews, they surely do carry their hate towards brown people eventually
The other Germany wasn't much better. While it didn't simp for Israel it simped for other fascist dictatorships and was even more authoritarian than the Soviet Union, literally shooting down protests for freedom and equality. Make no mistake my friend, both the FRG and the GDR overall sucked/still suck. You can condemn one injustice and at the same time also condemn the other. What we needed and what we need was and is neither, the GDR nor the FRG system. We still need proper denazification as neither states really did so and we ended up with a lot of old nazi structures which never changed and are now too "sacred" to even consider changing (because change is generally viewed as a bad thing in Germany or at least in German politics).
@@JacktheRah What fascist dictatorships did it simp for? By protests for freedom and equality do you mean protests to restore capitalism in Germany? stop using vague explanations
@@JacktheRah By "protests for freedom and equality" do you mean saboteur scum who literally put soap in schoolchildrens' milk among other heinous acts which made the Berlin Wall necessary? And the GDR had heads of state that were opposed to the Nazis since the beginning, unlike the FRG who didn't have anyone without ties to the Third Reich in power until the 70s or so.
@snaildun I only think of Ethiopia, regarding "fascist" dictatorships. But the GDR leadership certainly did not simp for any country, except the USSR itself😆 and the commoners there simped for the FRG
Ireland is quite literally the complete opposite. no matter how far-right someone is here, they're always at least somewhat sympathetic to the Palestine liberation movement and other anti-colonial movements. Thank god we actually know what genocide is and don't have some distorted "genocide is when demographic change in white country" ass view that every other IC (if ireland can be considered IC, which the more you know about the material realities of Ireland, the harder it gets to fit in the categories of IC and IP) country seems to have.
Hoiya, I'm mostly uneducated about Ireland and the nuances of it's history and culture, but from the exposure I had, I've always found it to be as you say, what with Ireland being the one "western country" that very clearly and directly had to recover from all the predatory shit the rest of the west did to the most of the rest of the world. Anyway, what are IP and IC countries? I kinda failed to get a conclusive Google check on that. ._.
Thank you - finally German obstinate support of Israel’s genocide is beginning to make sense. What’s the way for Germany towards self-knowledge and realisation of the facts about Palestine?
İ live in germany since 50 years. The problem with germany is that the past and the jew lobbys are extrem strong. Every critic about israel and you loose your job. it doesn't matter who you are. For example a journalist who had make a caricature about Netanjahu lost his job or in the comedy sector on tv there are not one comedian that can make jokes about jews. İt's over for you and every critic is labeled as antisemitism. The whole media talks only positive about israel. İt's very sad. They have a prominent sentence when it comes to the holocaust past. "Never again" but Germany never stopped, as one now sees the support for the genocide. There are always in there.
I think it’s a little bit unfair to have this one sided discussion of the left in Germany. There are huge internal discussions about Israel. And I think the public opinion is slowly changing. Because the main news source in Germany the “Tagesschau” is reporting on the genocide in Gaza. So are some mainstream newspapers like the “TAZ”
"Or Jews" alright Adolf pack it up. Israel doesn't represent the global Jewish population, to say otherwise is promoting the dual loyalty myth used by Nazis. The biggest supporters of the settlements in the West Bank are Christian Zionist in the US, Jewish Zionists while obviously being a large group are relatively insignificant compared to these ghouls besides their work to push propaganda in Jewish communities just as the Christian Zionists do in their communities.
I wish the lesson from Germany's past would be to not tolerate any Genocide. Instead, many seem to think they only have to defend Jews but don't have to care about other people.
@@TheLeontheking Well....Germans have some historic experience regarding collective punishment of a population for their rulers, as most often the innocent population is not quite as innocent, as it seems.

I recently started my master's degree at uni kassel. I did my bachelor's at a small german university which didn't have much political activism. Imagine my surprise when I entered the main campus and there were two huuuuuuge signs stating "Our campus is no platform for hate, violence and hate speech. At the university of kassel study and teach many people of different nationalities and religions. Universities are places of open dialogue, marked by mutual tolerance and respect. Only arguments, reason and compassion count here. (So far so saying nothing at all but then:) It is clear to us: We do not look away when humans suffer. The right of the state of Israel to exist is not to be questioned. The right of the Palestinian people to their own state is not to be questioned. The responsibility of the hundred year conflict lies not only with one party. Any form of terrorism is to be condemned. Every comparison to the crimes of the nazis is forbidden. Just like any form of antisemitism and islamophobia" Yes I'm sure they value open dialogue
"Every comparison to the crimes of the nazis is forbidden." Ah yes, that would just make it way too obvious israel is just evil so they just have to stop the comparisons entirely? Brilliant.

1:18 You can't say much about this guy because he sues everybody but fact is he was arrested with a certain stimulant that is popular for certain activities in an area where very young eastern European guys make a living and he really doesn't like Jamaicans
On the 3rd of october, the german state and it's patriotic bootlikers celebrated the "unification" of Germany. Germany was split in two in a response to its own crimes. Four days later, people in Gaza took down a border fence that was imposed on them, after their people were split into at least four sections, for the single crime of living on land that zionists wanted to colonise. Of course, the german press didn't see any of this. They called it an unprovoked attack, motivated by nothing but their supposed hatred for jews. Yes, german propaganda is entirely calculated. But it also only works because the german public is entirely underinformed about Palestine, the german war aims in eastern Europe, the Ghettos, the scramble for Africa. And yet, hearing the same few informations about Nazi Germany over and over again makes them think they know more than anyone else, and unfortunately well-meaning liberals outside feed into this delusion by looking up to Germany as some sort of positive example. What frightens me is, if germans actually saw the things for how they actually are, I think they'd rather drop their red, green, yellow and black exterior and just become open and proud Nazis instead of standing for any of the principles they claim and getting rid of their internal german exceptionalism

You'd be also well advised to re-read Jabotinsky's 1923 "Iron Wall", in which he clearly and repeatedly - though of course approvingly - calls the Z-ï-0-ñ-îßt Project a COLONIZATION, against the will and well-being of the existing, NATIVE population, who "will continue to resist as long as there remains a tiniest spark of hope of regaining their NATIVE land".
@AmpWave-x9m So you think the Z-ï-0-ñ-îßts can just keep on "Mowing the Lawn", sniping and killing or permanently maiming unarmed women, children, the disabled in their wheelchairs, the double amputees on their crutches, over the years on end WITHOUT ANY CONSEQUENCES? The cynical, cold-blooded, barbaric, terrorist murder of Count Folke Bernadette, for which you have never been held accountable and which you lied and weaseled your way out of emboldened you, did it not?
The SPD (the Socialdemocratic Party of Germany) is pretty standard centre left. The Linke (the Left) is anti-capitalist liberal left but lost all of its relevance with infighting and broken hierarchical structures, which often was in conflict with their own moral standards. The BSW (the Alliance Sahra Wagenknecht) is a party centered around the founder Sahra Wagenknecht who is a stalinist and therefore follows politics that are in support of Russia over helping the people in Germany. It is authoritarian left. Lastly, the Grüne (the Greens). They are environmental left. I would say all of them are political left, with the exception of the BSW which has because of the beliefs of its founder more overlap with the far right than the left. Ironically probably the only party some of you would call left out of this list.
Really? Look at what happened to Labour or the french socialist party. Corbyn was even purged because he didn't follow the zionist line(or at least that was the excuse). Socdems turning into neolibs over the past few decades is the rule in Europe rather than the exception.
@olivers.7821 complete nonsense. Wagenknecht has become a social democrat in recent years. Stalinist, my a**. Far right, my a**. You are regurgitating German corporate media propaganda. I hope you get paid well for it.
The BSW is the only leftist party for us outside Germany. Supporting Genocide is a big red line, like an American Highway red line. To me, the rest of the parties are disgusting, especially the Greens, more like Caqui military Green: Pro NATO, Pro US, Pro Empire, Pro Colonisation, and supposedly environmentalists that supports opening new coal power stations.

~20 years ago I played an online game called power of politics, it was for players in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. There were parties, I was in the Guerillas Revolucionarios party. We had some of these "Antideutsche" as members. I was glad that we managed to oust them after a bit of idiotic discussions and fighting. Absolute insanity, their kind of "thinking", probably an invention of some "service" abroad. They were calling anticapitalism "structural anti-semitism", i.e. THEY were anti-semites.
Okay so I haven't watched the full thing but like at 1:51, are they really that stupid that they see it like a video game logic? Oh I supported Israel now that means I am less ashamed of my past. Fucking hell this is gonna be one hell of a video to watch.

It's so sad to see how the leftists in Germany break again because of this, they are criticised for beeing anti-Semitic because of their engagement towars the palestenian liberation and are dismissed by a lot of people for their solidarity with israel - that's the much bigger part in public. It breaks my heart. I criticise in both directions but mostly the anti d's who dismiss every action for freedom that includes acknowledging the crimes of Israel. What i critise about the others is that they fall into blind "fuck Israel" rhetoric (international problem) i know the reasons for it but as a leftist i don't see any reason for any countrie to exist but i also don't hate one single one and i won't say any countrie deserves existence less. We have to accept this fact to reuinite and find a solution for everyone. Leftist should hate the concepts and structures like nationalism, racism, colonialism but never the countrie or the people, we fight for the people and id wish we would not segregate like it's a football game.
Its so sad to see both-sideism between a genocidal, apartheid collonialism and its victims presented as normal rational stance. How are even supposed radical left Germans the purest liberals. Please learn the difference between a state and a country. Should apartheid South Africa, with far more mild policies, should not be abolished? Is there two sides for that also? Israel must be dismantled as a state as it is only current regime with racial, religious and ideological supremacy written into their laws, and the only current regime genociding and colonizing a population.

I told them that i thought it's strange to praise any nation whatsoever and given it's lead by a right wing fundamentalist, even more strange. What followed was getting debated down by two people while the rest remained silent - they weren't super harsh or anything but the undertone of me just being a bit of an uneducated idiot that (unkowingly) enables anti-semitism was pretty clear.
After that was over, members told me - in secret - that they kinda agree, but that that's something i just can not say or debate.
This should have shaken me a lot more than it did back then.
Damn, sounds pretty cultish for an "non-hierarchical" group.

yeah thats why there is anarchist groups who actually try to manage power imbalances. these post autonomous, anti auth. commie groups are just claiming to be democratic. they are just cults like the auth. groups. most small political groups are cults, if you like it or not. Anarchist have a destinction between warrented and unwarrented hierarchy, e.g. someone is really good in smth of course they will teach people in this thing, which is a logical hierarchy. most post autonomous groups are being led by manipulating idiots who cannot step outside of their ideology and are just elitist pieces of shit. like fr how many of these groups we have seen and they are all the laughing stock of anarchists. it has come to the point were i feel better working with leninists, bc they are atleast honest, we both know we are enemies. these post autonomists are just trying to take anarchist aesthetics to cover their authoritarian leaning and they are lying all day. no anarchist takes smbdy seriously who defends a states right to exist.

Leftism is inherently Semitic, so they were right when they thought you were uneducated.

1) sure, the words of some people will always carry more weight than others regarding topics - i don't want my plumber to program a website and i don't want a programmer to mess with my piping. That's not what non-hierachical means.
2) using "Common Sense" and "Natural" as arguments is circle-logic. It's also common sense & natural for sons to kill their fathers, but we largely stoped doing that because it's stupid.
3) Organisation requieres structures and responsibilities. I've been working for a long time now and in my experience strict hierachy really hinders problem solving and the further "Up" someone is, the more immune they get to consequences of their actions and the more detachted they get from reality which is very bad for an organisation as a whole.

İ live in germany since 50 years. The problem with germany is that the past and the jew lobbys are extrem strong. Every critic about israel and you loose your job. it doesn't matter who you are. For example a journalist who had make a caricature about Netanjahu lost his job or in the comedy sector on tv there are not one comedian that can make jokes about jews. İt's over for you and every critic is labeled as antisemitism. The whole media talks only positive about israel. İt's very sad. They have a prominent sentence when it comes to the holocaust past. "Never again" but Germany never stopped, as one now sees the support for the genocide. There are always in there.
I think it’s a little bit unfair to have this one sided discussion of the left in Germany. There are huge internal discussions about Israel. And I think the public opinion is slowly changing. Because the main news source in Germany the “Tagesschau” is reporting on the genocide in Gaza. So are some mainstream newspapers like the “TAZ”

On the 3rd of october, the german state and it's patriotic bootlikers celebrated the "unification" of Germany. Germany was split in two in a response to its own crimes. Four days later, people in Gaza took down a border fence that was imposed on them, after their people were split into at least four sections, for the single crime of living on land that zionists wanted to colonise. Of course, the german press didn't see any of this. They called it an unprovoked attack, motivated by nothing but their supposed hatred for jews. Yes, german propaganda is entirely calculated. But it also only works because the german public is entirely underinformed about Palestine, the german war aims in eastern Europe, the Ghettos, the scramble for Africa. And yet, hearing the same few informations about Nazi Germany over and over again makes them think they know more than anyone else, and unfortunately well-meaning liberals outside feed into this delusion by looking up to Germany as some sort of positive example. What frightens me is, if germans actually saw the things for how they actually are, I think they'd rather drop their red, green, yellow and black exterior and just become open and proud Nazis instead of standing for any of the principles they claim and getting rid of their internal german exceptionalism
Nope.

So-called socialist and leftist parties in Germany are pretty far-right compared to parties in other countries.
That sounds like America
The SPD (the Socialdemocratic Party of Germany) is pretty standard centre left.
The Linke (the Left) is anti-capitalist liberal left but lost all of its relevance with infighting and broken hierarchical structures, which often was in conflict with their own moral standards.
The BSW (the Alliance Sahra Wagenknecht) is a party centered around the founder Sahra Wagenknecht who is a stalinist and therefore follows politics that are in support of Russia over helping the people in Germany. It is authoritarian left.
Lastly, the Grüne (the Greens). They are environmental left.
I would say all of them are political left, with the exception of the BSW which has because of the beliefs of its founder more overlap with the far right than the left. Ironically probably the only party some of you would call left out of this list.
Really? Look at what happened to Labour or the french socialist party. Corbyn was even purged because he didn't follow the zionist line(or at least that was the excuse).
Socdems turning into neolibs over the past few decades is the rule in Europe rather than the exception.
@olivers.7821 complete nonsense. Wagenknecht has become a social democrat in recent years. Stalinist, my a**. Far right, my a**. You are regurgitating German corporate media propaganda. I hope you get paid well for it.

To me, the rest of the parties are disgusting, especially the Greens, more like Caqui military Green: Pro NATO, Pro US, Pro Empire, Pro Colonisation, and supposedly environmentalists that supports opening new coal power stations.
I really gotta applaud your effort to provide people with the marxist or generally class-conscious outlook on the topics you cover and I have not seen anybody do this as well as you do on RUclips. Are you currently doing the channel besides a job or is it able to finance itself? Definitely considering to support you on patreon
Whats up with the huge amount of Kurdish flags among Anti Deutsche?
A lot of kurds live in germany. And they love to hate on muslims because of turkey, syria, iraq and iran. They are everywhere suppresed by muslims so they tag along. It's a bit more complicated, but well.
A lot of german Anarchists are in support of the PKK, the YPG and Kurdish independence movement.
Anti-D's see themselves as Anarchists.
i guess its because kurdistan is supported by america
Turkey
basrani simps. they are not on the same ideology as the KCK which is of course against israel.
Another banger video thanks
Thanks for the terrifying true history of Germany.
~20 years ago I played an online game called power of politics, it was for players in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
There were parties, I was in the Guerillas Revolucionarios party. We had some of these "Antideutsche" as members. I was glad that we managed to oust them after a bit of idiotic discussions and fighting. Absolute insanity, their kind of "thinking", probably an invention of some "service" abroad. They were calling anticapitalism "structural anti-semitism", i.e. THEY were anti-semites.
They sound like a mad sect and infiltrated cops, those "Anti-Germans".
Because they are not left at all!
Thanks for this
Okay so I haven't watched the full thing but like at 1:51, are they really that stupid that they see it like a video game logic? Oh I supported Israel now that means I am less ashamed of my past.
Fucking hell this is gonna be one hell of a video to watch.
YES. You support racism and genocide as a good old german, just changed the race this time. SHAME ON YOU
Richard von Weizsäcker was an Wehrmachts Soldat. After Moskow he was in the OKH. Highcomand of the Army.
No mention of Ye z o v or Yagoda?
Who was running things in the N k v d?
Who executed the Tsar?
Look those names up- which some are celebrated in Is ra el today.
❤
Jews had jobs in USSR? How shocking!!! As if they are you know,people and can get jobs??
another banger
I would argue that supporting a vash-jist janosssssidal App hard-heid system (ai concealment speak) automatically makes you the extreme right, not left.
Bro that's wild. I think aprthd and gcid works
They are under foreign controll!
GERMANY HAD LOST THE LAST WORS AND HAS NOTHING TO DECIDE !!!
It's such a shame! I'm a german leftie and I feel so embarresed for my "fellow lefties". My country hasn't learn anything....
I'm German and I'm so fucking sick of our politicians and media
Here we go again
It's so sad to see how the leftists in Germany break again because of this, they are criticised for beeing anti-Semitic because of their engagement towars the palestenian liberation and are dismissed by a lot of people for their solidarity with israel - that's the much bigger part in public. It breaks my heart. I criticise in both directions but mostly the anti d's who dismiss every action for freedom that includes acknowledging the crimes of Israel. What i critise about the others is that they fall into blind "fuck Israel" rhetoric (international problem) i know the reasons for it but as a leftist i don't see any reason for any countrie to exist but i also don't hate one single one and i won't say any countrie deserves existence less. We have to accept this fact to reuinite and find a solution for everyone. Leftist should hate the concepts and structures like nationalism, racism, colonialism but never the countrie or the people, we fight for the people and id wish we would not segregate like it's a football game.
I MEANT SOCCER GOSH I'M SO GERMAN
Its so sad to see both-sideism between a genocidal, apartheid collonialism and its victims presented as normal rational stance. How are even supposed radical left Germans the purest liberals.
Please learn the difference between a state and a country. Should apartheid South Africa, with far more mild policies, should not be abolished? Is there two sides for that also?
Israel must be dismantled as a state as it is only current regime with racial, religious and ideological supremacy written into their laws, and the only current regime genociding and colonizing a population. People who you just cant see as equals from what i read.
Make a show discussing what is happening in German Christmas markets and those who are the troublemakers.
Reasons why Germany didn't deserve reunification.
Anti-Ds would be hilarious if they weren't so disturbing.
