Space DogeInu ($SPD) is a dog-themed meme coin, calling itself not a meme coin but “a new trend”. This is a cryptocurrency that was born by fans and members of the Shiba Inu (SHIB) community. The coin is named after Elon Musk's Shiba Inu

It was brought up in recent talks during the new government formations. The SPD (social democrats) want to tax crypto like the stocks and the CDU/CSU (conservative, moderate-right) have "no intentions of changing it". Which means they will probably sacrifice it to get another thing approved. I'd give you a source but they're all in German.
CDU wants to keep it so far, SPD wants to tax. My guess is that it will be the last bullrun before the dinosaurs wake up.
tldr; Germany's Christian Democratic Union (CDU), set to lead the next government, has shifted to a pro-crypto stance, aiming to make Germany a hub for crypto businesses. The CDU's Agenda 2030 emphasizes innovation in blockchain technology and financial freedom while addressing concerns like money laundering. The coalition agreement with the Social Democratic Party (SPD) includes plans to review crypto regulations. This marks a significant policy reversal from the CDU's earlier restrictive approach, signaling a more balanced focus on innovation and security. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Are you mental? SPD is literally about to increase taxes on income from stocks and want to tax crypto even tho you hold it more than 1 year. Seems like you are part of the socialists, but then again, what are you doing on a bitcoin sub?
I will hate SPD for the rest of my life if it happens.
It seems the CDU cares about nothing except putting up the chancellor. They have already caved in on lots of other SPD demands.
Leftists gonna left. Still, a drop in the sea compared with the damage the SPD and their friends have caused to themselves with their extremely stupid “sanctions”, at the end of which Russia thrives and Germans suffer. Still, you get what you voted for.
That's the point of view of the greens and SPD, i respectfully disagree
I just looked it up. Found an article from 23. SPD had no opinion on btc at all. AFD and FDP are pro. The other partys are pretty much against it or want more regulation. hm "knock on wood"
It was a coalition of Socialists (SPD), Environmentalists (Grüne) & Liberals (FDP). The liberal Minister of Finance Christian Linder insisted on the "Schuldenbremse" aka sound government budgets. Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) criticized & eventually fired him for being too inflexible on this matter. Now German government is a minority coalition (SPD & Grüne) & somewhat of a "lame duck". Scholz wants to ask the parliament if they still support him in January. New elections are expected for March.
German chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) fired his Minister of Finance Christian Linder because. Lindner insisted on sound government financials while Scholz wants Germany to take on more debt. Guess the money printer will pay for that one too.
As much as I like the initiative, I find it hard to imagine this going anywhere beyond a brief discussion in the city council. Particularly given that the (most likely opposing) center-left SPD and Gruene hold a comfortable majority. The only likely supportive party I can spot, the liberal FDP, barely holds on to a mere 3 out of 86 seats. Not sure about the center-right CDU stance. I'd be pleasantly surprised if they did support the idea, but I'm not holding my breath. I am impressed though that they were able to get the Sparkasse involved. That does add a fair bit of clout to the initiative. Either way: All the best and I can't wait to be proven utterly wrong in having been so pessimistic!
What can I do? I have a German passport and I don’t dare to say that I am German, because organic Germans would laugh at me, I am an immigrant, do I fight the racist public? The government? Where shall I start for god sake? I am also preparing myself to leave Germany. I came here due to war and study, I don’t want to start another war. If I ever opened my mouth about politics the Germans would laugh at me. I am not to blame I am a simple second class citizen, although I pay taxes more than the majority of people in Germany according to statistics. You also are giving me that shit now? Hell no I don’t care for this country, it gave me free university education and that was it, I already paid health insurance and taxes double what I could have paid for university in the USA, apart from that free education I don’t own it any shit. I don’t fucking care if it burned as a whole tbh. I care about myself only… Vote for politicians my ass, to AFD? CDU? SPD? WHO shall I vote for? Openly nazis, religious nazis and money thirsty nazis. I enjoy the luxury of living here, while I couldn’t care less what happens to here, i travel 6 times a year, still I will leave this country very soon though without looking back.
They do not thematize crypto at all since the greens and SPD probably don't even know what it is. The Germans are also pretty conservative regarding investments and just love when inflation eats up their 10-100k at the bank. People here don't invest. They don't even care about it, they just rant at inflation but don't do anything about it. So I don't think crypto is a topic our government is even considering thematizing too much. If the bull goes to the moon they might sense theres money to be made from taxing gains, that scares me. But I think most politicans still think btc is magic internet money. How about Switzerland?
The draft of this law came from SPD, Grüne/B90 and FDP. FDP is a neoliberal party with 11 percent in the parliament, whereas SPD and Grüne/B90, both center left and left parties with roughly 40 percent of seats in the parliament. Neither SPD nor B90/Grüne are notorious for carrying the banks water.

Lmfao a CCP company with 50 Alibaba CCP engineers doing all the heavy lifting on the industries only FINRA SPD Blockchain company!!!!!!???? How fucking clueless is this sub
Vitalik was on a phone call with Hinman directly before the Hinman speech. It's located in in the unsealed Hinman deposition from 10 days ago. Vitalik is also involved with Wanxiang which is one of the most politically connected CCP party companies in all of China. Alibaba Alipay Ant Financial and Wanxiang the very same in charge of China's social credit systems. And now PromETHeum has the industries only FINRA SPD.
Prometheum is the company that came out of nowhere a few days ago and received the industry first FINRA SPD from Gensler to be able to sell digital assets Securities. (Right after Coinbase and Binance were sued for allegedly selling unregistered securities) Kaplan, the Prometheum CEO gave testimony in front of Congress financial services committee hearings testifying that all crypto should be Securities. I would think the founder of Ethereum would be sticking up for crypto projects instead of investing in companies who want them all labeled as securities. Disappointing to say the least.

Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Well look, I'm not a doctor, but you get plenty of people with schizotypal disorders that are relatively high functioning and organised. The sterotype of the raving lunatic is the extreme version. ​ A few excerpts on Shizotypal Personality Disorder, Schizoid Personality Disorder and Psychosis: * Symptoms of SPD include: * Inappropriate or constricted affect (the individual appears cold and aloof); * Behavior or appearance that is odd, eccentric or peculiar; * Poor rapport with others and a tendency to withdraw socially; Odd beliefs or magical thinking, influencing behavior and inconsistent with subcultural norms; * Suspiciousness or paranoid ideas; * Obsessive ruminations without inner resistance; * Vague, circumstantial, metaphorical, over-elaborate or stereotyped thinking, manifested by odd speech or in other ways, without gross incoherence; * The subject matter of delusions seems to reflect the current culture in a particular time and location. For example, in the US, during the early 1900s syphilis was a common topic, during the second world war Germany, during the cold war communists, and in recent years technology has been a focus. * A delusion may involve diverse thematic content. The most common type is a persecutory delusion, in which a person believes that an entity seeks to harm them. Others include delusions of reference (the belief that some element of one's experience represents a deliberate and specific act by or message from some other entity), delusions of grandeur (the belief that one possesses special power or influence beyond one's actual limits). ​ So for me, Wright would tick most/all boxes for an SPD-type disorder. Note that "gross incoherence" is not a feature of SPD, meaning it's normal for him to still be quite high functioning. He wouldn't tick many of the "scammer / extortion" boxes due to the constant mistakes he makes, often proving himself wrong. It does, however, match the behaviour of someone acting upon a fixed psychotic delusion that is independant from reality.
As a German this pains me, too. With the annexation of Crimea the writing was on the wall and it was crystal clear what is going to happen. But what can you do if your parties act like that: - Die Linke (far left): A party with a huge fanbase for stalinism/communism. They are even right now shilling for Russia. - AFD (far right/extremist right): They just like Putin because he is a strong leader ;) - CDU/CSU (center right): This party only knows one thing - THE ECONOMY. They would literally trade with any dictator they could find if it would increase the BIP. Cheap russian gas is no problem for them. - SPD (center left): Same like CDU/CSU, but they don't do it for the economy, but for their own financial gains... Just look up the current jobs of our old chancellor Gerhard Schroeder ;) - FDP (liberals): They change their opinion at least 3 times a day and didn't play a huge role the last 10 years - The Greens (kind of the environmentalist center party): The only party with a bit of common sense concerning this topic (Don't you worry they have a lot of other topics, where they are totally lost :D) That is/was (it is changing since the Russian attack on Ukraine) political landscape, but their are other "issues" too: - a strong, some times ideologically lost, peace movement, that thinks you can stop tanks with flowers... - a pretty big mistrust/hate against military (well if you factor in our history this is maybe not that bad :D) - a pretty loud minority that is pretty anti-American and sees only the bad things about the US and the NATO I could go on here, but this is the "core" of my explanation of that topic. I hope it helps some people to understand us better.
Complete nonsense. The greens SPD and left political party is anti crypto and has been pushing hard on the EU level to ban proof of work and impose suffocating regulation on personal wallets just recently. Crypto is a matter on EU level that’s the only reason they didn’t do too much harm nationally yet. Just because we have a somewhat good tax law on it which is only because crypto properties forced it into that tax section (private Vermögenswerte) doesn’t mean our ruling politicians are crypto friendly because they are absolutely not.

Left and Greens in Germany are super weird. 82% of the Green voters are in favor of restrictions. The only States that applied the Hotspot rules are red/green (MV/HH), most of the votes of these parties want to keep mask mandates indefinitely. I respect all opinions but I really don't understand how you can own crypto and vote SPD or Grünen. Baerbock would ban Bitcoin tomorrow if she could...
Habe ebenfalls diese Antwort bekommen. Nachricht ging an 94 Abgeordnete. Dies ist die erste Antwort. Anbei der Original Text: \------------- Lieber Herr Satoshi, vielen Dank für Ihre Email. Wie ich bereits in den sozialen Medien geäußert habe, fand ein neuer Anlauf im ECON Ausschuss (Wirtschaft- und Währungsangelegenheiten) rund um ein faktisches „Bitcoin“-Verbot am Montag in Brüssel statt: Hier ist man allerdings nicht so plump, um es wie - in Kanada - unter dem Deckmantel der "Terrorbekämpfung" gegen die eigenen, regierungskritischen Bürger in Stellung zu bringen. Hier wurde der Energiehunger und damit die problematische Einordnung unter den Gesichtspunkten des sog. „GreenDeal“ vorgeschoben, um die Kryptowährungen, die auf der „Proof-of-Work“-Technologie basieren, die Legitimität zu entziehen. Eine entsprechende Sanktion käme einem faktischen Bitcoin-Verbot in der EU gleich. Zum Glück konnte eine liberal-konservative Mehrheit das Verbot stoppen und dem Vorhaben, das durch SPD und Grüne gefördert wurde, damit einstweilen einen Riegel vorschieben. Ausgestanden ist die Sache damit jedoch nicht. Denn der Bitcoin wird für die Brüsseler Verbots-Fanatiker zunehmend zum Problem - allerdings vor allem deshalb, weil durch Ihn die desaströse Geldpolitik der EZB und die Wirtschaftspolitik der EU immer deutlicher wird. Außer Schulden machen und Geld drucken fällt Lagarde, von der Leyen und Co. nämlich nichts ein! Sie, als Teil einer reichen Elite, haben mit der Methodik der Geldmengenvermehrung auch kaum Probleme oder Einschränkungen. Aber die normalen Bürger spüren immer deutlicher, wohin die Reise geht, wenn sie die Preise im Supermarkt oder an der Tankstelle sehen. Der Bitcoin hingegen lässt sich nicht einfach nach Belieben „nachdrucken“, er ist dazu noch so anonym wie Bargeld und auch das ist ein Problem, das Brüssel gerne beseitigt sehen möchte. Wünscht man sich doch den gläsernen Bürger, der neben dem Gesundheitszustand zukünftig auch den Vermögenstatus offenlegen und vielleicht auch seine Linientreue durch Sozialpunkte nachweisen soll. Wir setzen uns weiter für sie im Namen der Freiheit ein!

But who lobbied against the ban? There is no reason mentioned in the article why was it taken out of the bill at the last moment? The Greens, SPD, FDP are already in the coalition government why did they back off? Genuinely asking!
The story is that a provision was added to the current draft to ban “environmentally unsustainable consensus mechanisms”. While there was opposition to this its inclusion seems to have been necessary to avoid the rest of the regulation from being blocked. Here is the original article though it is in German. You might have to rely on Google Translate. [SPD, Greens and Left want to ban Bitcoin in Europe](https://www.btc-echo.de/news/bitcoin-spd-gruene-und-linke-fordern-verbot-in-der-eu-135678/)
Sadly the German didn't vote truly green. They (in part) voted for the greens which in my opinion only differ slightly from the common parties CDU and SPD in terms of climate politics. Sure their ideas are a little bit more green than the ones from the other parties but nowhere near as radical as they where when the greens where new to the parliament. The sad reality is that neither of the European countries don't do nearly enough as would be required to stay within the climate goal.
tldr; Ein finaler Entwurf des EU-Parlaments sieht ein Verbot für Dienstleistungen von Proof-of-Work-basierten Kryptowährungen vor. SPD, Grüne und Linke hätten die Position in den Verhandlungen durchgesetzt. De facto könnte das Ende für Bitcoin ab 1. Januar 2025 bedeuten. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.*
Again im not american so I dont know much except for what im exposed to on reddit so ill refrain from making a direct comparison. When I said a mix of liberal parties and green parties I mean that the students in my class overwhelmingly vote for the FDP and the Green party. You can check out the FDP in my wiki link. In Germany we always had 2 major parties, CDU and SPD (conservative and workerparty respectively) but thanks to Merkel (CDU) the CDU stood in power. But those two parties alone usually dont get the required majority to lead. There are 2 more smaller parties, the green party and the FDP that usually form coalitions with the major parties to have the required majority (unless the two major parties form one coalition, which also happened and destroyed trust in the SPD). THen there are even smaller parties that gain votes, most famously the AFD (alt right, many nazis and far-right people in there). But most parties refuse to form a coalition with them anyway. It used to be in my classes that most people voted for one of the 4 parties more or less in alignment with the current political landscape. More SPD than CDU and more green than FDP but it was about so and so. In the recent years though, whenever i hold a mock election, the FDP and green parties overwhelmingly win in my classes. And its curious with the FDP because many students who vote for it would actually reject some of the parties positions when asked.
Hehe, in the article you linked it says at the end Österreich, which means Austria. Seems like in Austria it's better to do crypto trading while Germany is better for holding. For example, in Austria swapping a coin to USDC/USDT won't be a taxable event. So you can sell into stablecoins and buy back lower without paying any taxes. And just to make it clear, it's not that Germany is nice and thinks people should hold Bitcoin. There just happens to be a law for foreign currencies that also applies to BTC/crypto. No one really said anything about BTC itself. So I would not saying it's a crypto "paradise" or something. There are still many unclear parts, for example, if you stake/lend a coin this period that you have to hold to have it tax free becomes 10 years and not 1 year, but it's also not official really. And if you happen to be paying taxes in BTC, you have to pay income tax on it, which is 42% if your work income is >€57k, which isn't really a big amount for some jobs, like in SW engineering that's an entry level salary. So it really sucks in these cases. I would not say Germany has a favorable crypto view, as the current taxation is NOT for Bitcoin, rather for foreign currencies. I think there is no change on the horizon as the FDP, liberal party, seems to have a lot of power in the government. However seeing the rise of SPD/Grünen, more socialist parties, if they'll govern without the liberals a tax will surely come. To be clear, I'm not expressing political views, just facts and what people here expect. But luckily for you and me, the Bitcoin we own now won't probably be affected by those future changes :)
That's not how it works tho. Scholz was finance minister for years and the SPD did nothing with it. They did not get a single thing done in finance politics because the CDU was just NOPE. Why would it be different this time

This month went by so fast that I don't even know how we performed as a sub. I feel like the SPD rule implemented last month was great for the sub. The overall quality around here grew exponentially imo
How can I determine/know my SPD this month (apart from looking at all my comments)?
Where is the left party (die Linke)? There is a big chance SPD will form a coalition with them if they win (Rot-Rot-Grün). Doesn’t even exist in your view of the world does it?
All depends on the upcoming elections. The only non-anti crypto party is the FDP. Linke, Grüne and SPD will raise significant capital gains tax on crypto and try to regulate it to fund social welfare and housing.
The bigger danger is wealth tax. SPD and the Greens want 1%. The Linke want a crazy 5%. Assuming a coalition of the SPD and Greens get in, if most of your wealth is tied up in crypto that means you'd have to sell 1% of it each year just to pay the tax. CDU and FDP are against such a wealth tax.
This site gives an idea on where German electricity comes from: [https://energy-charts.info/charts/energy\_pie/chart.htm?l=en&c=DE&interval=year](https://energy-charts.info/charts/energy_pie/chart.htm?l=en&c=DE&interval=year) Spoiler: Still mostly coal. Thanks, CDU + SPD.
I had actually a 46 SPD so I don't know xD
Quick fact-check: >The Liberal Party is very crypto-friendly. They welcome alternative currencies like cryptocurrencies and want to promote and develop blockchain technology. The Liberals call for a legal framework for digital assets. Cash should continue to exist as an alternative to digital payment options. Right, see page 36 [here](https://www.fdp.de/sites/default/files/2021-06/FDP_Programm_Bundestagswahl2021_1.pdf) ​ >The Left Wing Party and the Green Party are against stablecoins and a privatization of currencies and are also in favor of a state-regulated digital euro. They are against privatization of currencies, but I couldn't find anything on stablecoins. For the digital euro you are right they are in favor of it. >The left wing party and the green wing party also want to protect cash and believe that cash should not be completely replaced by digital currencies. Both are also in favor of more regulation in the crypto market and would like to identify investors in order to curb crime. A reporting obligation for transactions of over 1000 euros has also been under discussion for some time. The left wing party even wants to tighten controls on digital payment systems such as Apple Pay, PayPal and AmazonPay. Yes. Even tough the reporting for transactions above 1k is already in place for the Euro, so they just want to treat Crypto the same. For the green see [here](https://cms.gruene.de/uploads/documents/Wahlprogramm-DIE-GRUENEN-Bundestagswahl-2021_barrierefrei.pdf) ; page 87. For the left [here](https://www.die-linke.de/fileadmin/download/wahlen2021/Wahlprogramm/DIE_LINKE_Wahlprogramm_zur_Bundestagswahl_2021.pdf); page 90. Seems to me that they are basically in favor of Crypto, not just as completly unregulated as it is rn. Also the left specifically opposes the PoW-Algorithm (see page 101). ​ >The Conservatice Party is vague about crypto. Crypto is nevertheless seen as a possibility to launder money and as a potential threat. Therefore, cryptocurrencies and cash should only be allowed to be exchanged after verification by a bank. In the process, the origin of the money should be clarified. They are in favor of a digital euro, but cash should not be endangered. Couldn't even find anything on this. See [here](https://www.csu.de/common/download/Regierungsprogramm.pdf) ; page 111. They only say, that they want that estate can be purchased only thorugh banks and not thorugh Crypto, to identify buyers. Nothing on digital euro. ​ >The Democratic Party opposes privatization of currencies and is also against stablecoins. I could not find out much about their opinion. Yep nothing [here](https://www.spd.de/fileadmin/Dokumente/Beschluesse/Programm/SPD-Zukunftsprogramm.pdf). ​ >The AFD, the right wing party of Germany, wants to say goodbye to the euro completely and bring back the "Deutsche Mark" (the former currency). It wants to protect cash and sees cryptocurrencies as a threat to cash. It is also against digital currencies such as the digital euro. This makes it the party that virtually completely rejects cryptocurrencies. Couln't find anything in their Election manifest, see [here](https://www.afd.de/wp-content/uploads/sites/111/2021/06/20210611_AfD_Programm_2021.pdf). You are right about the mark tho, but they write nothing on Crypto.
I am interested to know my SPD, if it's not too late
Yes it's passed You can use old reddit to keep track of your SPD
Let's take a look at how many comments you can have in the daily without moon farming. What's my SPD? 😬
You were at 12.93258823 SPD in the 28 days I sampled
I'd like to know my SPD if possible u/CryptoMaximalist I like the idea but I think it should have a higher cap, I usually spend alot of time replying to people and I do think the comments pile up. I also believe people would resort to alt accounts just to get around this and farm at full efficiency, while they may be caught some may manage to slip through the cracks.
Can you please tell me my SPD?
As Die Grünen are getting some flak in the comments, i would like to clarify that they are still a better choice than our current gouvernment. I personally would love to see a coalition between the greens, the SPD (used to be the working class party, became the bitch of the conservatives over the last 8 years, have now their last chance to reinvent themselves or perish) and the FDP, wich are very liberal. None of these parties were good on their own, but i believe that together they can work out a way to protect the climate, push industry and technology forward, better our infrastructure and at least slow down the division between poor and rich. Just my two geth.
its jsut shitty in all of them. CDU no words. SPD yeah what they are supposed to be is what woudl be good, but what they really did with all this years in power,... FDP yeah if i woudl be rich maybe, but i hope then i woudl not be so greedy to fuck over my not so fortunate countrymen Grüne yeah for them im in the wrong sub here Linke ok lets best get out of nato and praise every dictator in the world that has some comunist painting AFD nazis was no good idea the last tiem we tried them already
From the link: *Bei der SPD findet sich im 66 Seiten umfassenden „Zukunftsprogramm“* *nichts Konkretes zu Blockchain oder Kryptowährungen. Stattdessen will* *man die deutsche und europäische Digitalwirtschaft „gezielt und* *koordiniert“ auf allen Technologie-Ebenen unterstützen: „von der* *Halbleiter-Fertigung und der Quantentechnologie über die Cloud und* *Künstliche Intelligenz und Edge-Computing bis zur Cyber-Sicherheit,* *sicherer und vertrauenswürdiger Hard- und Software sowie Netzwerktechnik* *und datenbasierten Geschäftsmodellen.“ Außerdem findet sich noch die* *allgemeine Aussage, dass Daten „für gemeinwohlorientierte digitale* *Dienstleistungen und Innovationen nutzbar gemacht werden und nicht nur* *wenigen großen Daten-Monopolisten zur Verfügung stehen sollen“.* *Schließlich verspricht die SPD: „Wir werden ein Datengesetz schaffen,* *das das Gemeinwohl in den Mittelpunkt rückt.“*
There are more important issues than crypto taxation in the world. There is no chance I will be voting for the FDP hardcore capitalists. It's the linke or SPD for me
Do you know anything about the crypto program of the SPD?
Maybe you're right about the subjectiveness of their programm.. I just can't see what they offer except a few WEAK approaches to environment protection. And you're definitely right about SPD and FDP. All the established parties are slaves to lobbyism and self preservation. And by now Die Grünen are also established enough to shit on their programm once elected. They will change nothing. There are no options. Maybe AFD would be an option if they would TRULY separate from their extremist wing. Since they don't, I can't vote for them, too.
I agree with some points here. I do think that „die Grünen“ have a bad programm but thats obviously a subjective opinion as we are talking politics here. I dont see any drastic change with SPD or FDP so those are not really options for me. I think our biggest concern should be the evironment by now. We both know that the established parties will do shit about fuck.
How does that make any sense? I am allowed to tell people to vote SPD here in Germany, or not vote afd. There's absolutely nothing questionable about someone telling people which way to vote. Can we get an admin to clarify their official stance on this?
SPD forecast over 15% is generous lol
I find this post to be completely misleading. For one, you don't have to be a US Citizen to file a police report. Second, if you contacted Seattle PD, they would have directed you to the FBI since SPD do not handle internet fraud cases. Third, the details in this post are dubious at best. It is not a crime to create a cryptocurrency and claim whatever value you want and charge people for it(see Dogecoin as an example). Is it technically fraud? Yes. Is it legally fraud, well, it's never that cut and dry. If the intent was just to take people's money and run, then yes, but you have to prove intent. If he/she issued coins, even though they are bogus, then you as a customer got what you paid for and so no fraud actually took place. Sorry, but these scams are rampant. As someone has already pointed out, instead of making a post about this one fraud, it would be worthwhile to make a post about the scam itself, how it works, and how these people get paid. You can use this as an example, but the original text of your post reads more like you were seeking mob justice rather than either educating the people or seeking help on how to report this to the authorities. ... And yes, you're updates do spell it out more, but a casual read before getting to your edits doesn't even explain what the issue actually is, but just lists the steps you took to track a person and explain to anyone else how to track that person as well.
Technically the truth. SPD do not have jurisdiction over internet fraud cases. What you need is the FBI. Unfortunately they are swamped, so you won't likely get any immediate action there either.
Well the German Political Spectrum would look something like this (0 = far left, 10 = far right): 2 = DieLINKE - far left (original founded by the remains of the SED) 3.5 = Bündnis90/Die Grünen - Green party 4.5 = SPD - Social Democrats 5.5 = CDU - Christ Democrats (Merkels Party) 6 = CSU (is a part of the CDU) - Christ Social Democrats 6.5 = FDP - Neoliberals 7-8 = AfD - far right anti immigration Party The Dems are somewehere between 4.5 and 6. Reps somewhere between 7 and 9. I base those claims on the facts that: - stright gun laws. - free medicare for all. - social nets for the unemployed. - free abortions. -... Are all pretty normal in Germany and only the FDP/AfD would ever even consider touching them (Even tho they wouldnt admit that), while the dems arent 100% sure on their positions on each topic.
How are you a non supporter and ended up supporting trump twice? Not trying to vote-shame you... just curious... like... trump is more right wing than our literial Neo Nazi party. And the dems are more center than the (old) SPD (50% (and the left part) of our centrist koalition.
I think I'm a barely litereate, mostly incoherent SPD bastard hobo, is that any better?
If you develop SPD, with one personality wanting to sabotage the other, you can be satisfied no matter which direction the market leads.
