MODERATORS
But it's true! Which make's the whole thing fucking dangerous. That's exactly the reason the constitution does have articles in it meant to combat this very thing.
It may be a cynical argument but... People who wrote Grundgesetz doesn't need to be elected anymore, people who does politics today, instead, needs to.
We live in a democracy, at the very end, the electorate is the true final judge.
