Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.

If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.

Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.

Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.

Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.

Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

At the first meeting, the Russians presented a set of harsh conditions, effectively demanding Ukraine’s capitulation. This was a nonstarter. But as Moscow’s position on the battlefield continued to deteriorate, its positions at the negotiating table became less demanding. So on March 3 and March 7, the parties held a second and third round of talks [...]

Regarding territorial issues, parts of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions of Donbass would remain under Russian control

Moscow ostensibly wanted Kiev to slash the size of its army to 85,000 people, while Ukraine insisted on retaining a strength of 250,000.

Edit: Replaced "reporter" with "politician" in the post title

They've mostly split due to her personal petty grievances with the party leadership, with her racism, transphobia and her other reactionary tendencies being a distant second. Foreign policy played a miniscule role in the split if it mattered at all. She is a lot more outspoken than the Left on Ukraine, Gaza etc., but it's not as if the party voted for any arms exports or stuff like that before she left. These differences are largely aesthetic, not something that determines policy.

Yo she left with nearly half of the hole Linke , Sevim Dagdelen, De Massi , Lüders .. Linke is Currently Occupied with kicking out its members for Gaza Solidarity. You Proclaim With extrem Conviction things that are clearly Untrue. That she Took all of the "Anti-Nato voices" and "Splintered the Party" can evidently not be reasoned with "Charakter" or "Persona of Sarah Wagenknecht". Thats "Bild /Sueddeutsche" Level.

Out of curiosity, what is your opinion on her views on these issues:

Germany has an issue where "people with a traditional family no longer feel valued and someone who is white, male and heterosexual almost has to apologise for it".

The party is also against loosening regulations on legally changing one's gender; Wagenknecht believes that such a law "turns parents and children into guinea pigs for an ideology that only benefits the pharmaceutical lobby."

only benefits the pharmaceutical lobby

lmao, "trans people are a conspiracy by big hormone".

[–] SwitchyandWitchy@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago

Yeah that and the whole "won't someone think of the cishet white germans" bit is cringe

So theres Probably some Personal Issues in the Backround there, with her Persian Father leaving her as a Child , she never having the "Traditional Family". I assume that these "Traditional Values Mimimimi" was part why she had to step back from Leadership.

The Last "Winner" Issue of the BSW was "Put the German Flag on every Goverment Building" so we are stepping clearly into AFD territory not just Dipping their Toes, its pretty sad and Completly stupid.

The AFD allready exist , we dont a Second one. So BSW should take the sane Positions "Speaking with Russia" , "Nato does not bring us security" , and draw a Clear distinction line on Liberal Archievment , then Protect them From the AFD. Its Not only amoral but also tacticly bad.

EDit: The Cognito Hazard Quote: "turns parents and children into guinea pigs for an ideology that only benefits the pharmaceutical lobby." , is pretty insane and new to me , wheres that from ?

The exact quote takes place at 2:09 however it isn't the only transphobic point made by her in this statement.

CW: transphobia https://youtu.be/xxMllVtVZ_o
