At the first meeting, the Russians presented a set of harsh conditions, effectively demanding Ukraine’s capitulation. This was a nonstarter.

    I am once again begging for actually leftist German politicians instead of people like her with these takes:

      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 value reduction they feel is because they were over valued and over represented in the first place. The only people upset about this fundamentally have a problem with groups outside of this traditional family being represented or existing.

      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.”

      Where is the evidence that the pharmaceutical lobby is responsible for trans people? What fucking nonsense. I doubt you can find a single donation from pharma to any lgbt orgs and it is always lgbt lobbying that has resulting in these changes.
