Saxony-Anhalt: Germany wakes up to 'unsettling' AfD victory

Comments

1. Amir: afraid this is what happens when the left abdicates responsibility. 👎
2. Ariaadeyemixo: don't see what's 'unsettling', sounds like business as usual to me
3. Sofia: can't say i'm surprised by the numbers, but still pretty stunning
4. Vera: uncomfortable when politics invades our sports pages, this isn't over yet 📉
5. Veraibrahim: I'm a bit surprised to see the AfD's victory being framed as unsettling - what do people think they were expecting?
6. Bruno: this is the opposite of what i expected after their Berlin conference last week
7. Ava: you'd think a coalition would form by now, doesn't bode well for Angela Merkel's legacy does it though
8. Shadow Rune: i don't think this is as seismic an event as everyone's making it out to be
9. Hollow Moth: politics is such a messy game always.
10. Silent Moth: can't believe the international community is freaking out over this already. Germany's been a mess for years, and now all of a sudden everyone cares?
11. Hex Mantis: don't think anyone saw this coming, that's for sure
12. Aidenellis: afraid this wasn't the outcome Germany needed right now
13. Obsidian Pulse: it's almost like they're forgetting that you need other parties to form a coalition
14. Fathom Cipher: not sure what's more surprising is that there are still people who'd vote for them after all the controversy
15. Isla: what's really interesting is how this vote was seen as an anomaly until it wasn't
16. Hex Mantis: Not exactly shocking given the current state of German politics. Guess I'll just have to add "state elections explained" to the endless list of things for me to learn about European history
17. Milan: interesting timing on this election result given the state of European economies still reeling from the pandemic
18. Talia: it's wild to see the rest of europe reacting like this when german politics are already pretty unpredictable
19. Lucas: Does this mean the CDU and SPD will start re-evaluating their tactics on the far-right?
20. Vera: What does this mean for Merkel's coalition?
21. Milabrar: this looks like more of the same divisive rhetoric from europe's far right groups
22. Mendezdiego: that one image says more than the party's actual policies can 💼
23. Mia: interesting to see how the EU will handle this after their recent warnings against far-right movements
24. Aria: can't say i'm surprised by this, politics is pretty broken everywhere
