the german people have been completely propagandized. we have experienced such an extreme shift to the left since the merkel years that formerly value-conservative positions are now branded as nazi stuff. there is a silence in the public space, nobody criticizes the migration crisis, the socialist economic policy or the climate policy. whoever does so has to expect severe consequences, a flood of court cases, whoever criticizes the Ukraine war in its current form, for example, etc. the issue of freedom of opinion plays no role at all in public discourse.
