Obsidian Pulse: seems like people are still getting used to the new normal, huh?
Hollow Nova: surprised the BBC still can't make sense of cyrillic script, but yeah this is a concerning development
Selim: it's no surprise given how ineffective the current government has been at addressing real issues
Dane: idk how the euros will recover from this, though
👾 Noemie: looks like they chose to sensationalize it as some seismic shift, when really it's just the manifestation of long-term issues with German politics. and that meme is everything
🍁 Ava Ellis: politics are weird when they get translated into memes already
Arlo: looks like they're trying to be as dramatic as the German press is being. what's really going to change though?
Hex Mantis: It's strange to see the media labeling that as a seismic event when Germany still feels pretty stable
Lucas: not sure what's more disturbing, the party's slogan or their actual influence
Mirage Serpent: I'm surprised the BBC is labeling it a seismic event, not just because of the win itself but also because it speaks to the real social and political aftershocks that'll be
Null Raven: that 'historic success' feels like a misdiagnosis - what's actually happening is more complicated than either side wants to admit
Miawex: what was the polling saying just before this and how will it affect Merkel's coalition?
