Fill that, tweak values and do the parties main lines match your world views.
Not voting is accapting the extreme parties taking power.

I think CDU is pretty much middle to right ground of kokoomus and persu (both more right wing Finnish parties). And CDU has already taken some AfD point and looking like they would be happy to work with AfD, as kokoomus was first very anti persu, before last election where they set government together. CDU with other partners would be "fine", but I think everyone's worried is they wanna stay in power and happily take AfD to guarantee their government position.
So this is the modern voter suppression, everything sucks, nothing will change, so better to not vote at all. And who will gain in that?
Im not saying who you should vote, there is different tools to figure out what party fits your world views.
I think people had a bit old fashioned view of voter suppression. It has been nowdays more pushing certain messages to certain people. I was more ref about the modern ways online, like what happened during brexit. Just search "cambridge analytica + voter suppression" To simple way: spd voters get bombarded about how spd has fucked them years and years, green voters get bombarded how green part don't do their jobs. To make image that they don't deserve your vote anymore. Or it's better to send message by not voting at all. And as this all happens online, based people's own Internet history, it's not visible to outsiders. There was few damn good documentaries after brexit how that worked. It's just using social medias data to send personal message, using adds, promotions, or just algorithms push, based people's data.
In few countries in eu "the local CDU" had been vocal how they would never work with "local AfD", but when both of them got most votes, they had put together the government with only two parties. And that is my biggest worry. Like I do not agreeing with CDU, but them working with others that AfD is way better option that they going to bed with them. As it's just possible being a huge mess, not like usa mess, but both parties just siding with the biggest bullies and not getting anything done. Still blaming opposition parties (their old enemies) and minorities. Plus in current world tensions, governments parties that is just having inner fightings is not good for Germany or for European Union.
Kind my point, but I think all of them are going to vote anyways. I'm more worried about the rest. And potentially voter suppression. As seems most people aren't aware how it works now days. Like what happened during brexit. Just search "cambridge analytica + voter suppression"
Yeah good idea. I could use one too as i havent ever made them. I could try if I don't need to start planning to move out :D
Fixed. Funny how that post got removed on any reddit subs. I had tried to figure out why was that. Like just mod removed. And nothing else.
Lol, I'm just honestly wishing Germans has seen what happens in USA when letting biggest bullshitter in power. I think I need logoff from Internet on Sunday, just have mental health day.
