The truth is, I don't know much about German politics, but I am convinced of one thing: our freedom must begin within, both mentally and spiritually. It shouldn't depend on whether the right or the left governs. Sometimes one party gives us a little more space than another, but the key is not to depend on any government to live with dignity.
Personally, I felt trapped in Cuba. I reached 30 feeling like I hadn't achieved anything, and the worst part was feeling like I was condemning my son to the same thing. That's why we made the decision to leave, to seek a little more freedom and build a life with more options. Because in the end, no one is going to give you freedom: you have to pursue it and, above all, protect it.
Oh the point of that party wasn't politics in the traditional sense (also not really German, but for EU). They acted like a check by providing a measure of transparency to the EU back when they were in, and voted against many of the privacy-invasive proposals.
The problem I see is that politicians will never say no to more power, and will often not let go of power voluntarily. So you can vote but often there are only overall net losses to vote for. But being oppressed is even worse and so is corruption siphoning off your hard-earned freedoms and possessions.

This. But it also means we cannot make it happen for others other than by inspiring people to do the work for themselves.

Exactly. Freedom is not inherited or imposed, it is awakened.
Only real example can inspire it.
