German politicians diligently chop the branch on which they sit. I would even say more: they, like termites, sharpen the basis of the state in the person of the army and police with such enthusiasm, as if tomorrow would never come.
Previously, when the parties Grune and Linke were in opposition, their basic hatred of the police and army was seen as excesses of political struggle. Now, when not only that - they are included in the ruling structures (the entire Berlin Senate - only red-green-left, for example), their slogan is "Germany, die!" becomes almost a state ideology. Moreover, the ruling coalition of the CDU, CSU and Social Democrats has rapidly moved to the left over the past five years. And today, she herself would have called any texts of Chancellor Merkel 60 years old right-wing extremist.
This I just explain to you how everything turned out, gutted and perverted in the political clearing of Germany, as if drawn by Otto Dix immediately after the First World War.
Therefore, it is not surprising that hatred of the police and contempt for the army is now such an official political trend.
In the case of the police, the peak reached the peak in the well-known publication of the TAZ newspaper, where all the policemen were called garbage and it was proposed to dissolve the police and drive the police out to the dump, because they can not even be allowed to animals (exact quote). And when the Minister of the Interior, Seehofer, decided to sue the newspaper and the author, he immediately received a call from Merkel personally and withdrew the application.
Now the same thing is happening with the army.
The Bundeswehr has been unlucky for a long time - ever since the ruling party appointed the female gynecologist von Läyen in the correct, politically correct order (more, more women in government) as the Minister of Defense. At this place, the girl was engaged in what party girls are doing with inexorable regularity - collapse and embezzlement. This is the reconstruction of the sailing ship Gorch Fock (initial budget - 70 million, final - 130), and the millions spent on “consulting firms” (the favorite scheme of all corrupt officials in the world), and, as a result, the understaffing of the FRG’s foreign hulls in Afghanistan and The Middle East (for example, in Afghanistan, the Germans fly in helicopters without armor). In the literal sense of the word, rusty tanks and the lack of money for training flight crews, as a result - five lost fighters and dead pilots. Etc. And be sure to shut up the mouths of the generals who are trying to save the former powerful army.
When the party girl Karrenbauer again became Minister of Defense, everything became even worse, because she was not only unsuitable a priori — she had now embarked on a political reprisal against the army. She found "right-wing extremism in the army."
Looking at the “army matter”, we must understand that now in Germany any disagreement with the party’s line is seen as a manifestation of “right-wing extremism”.
Because, according to official opinion, left extremism does not happen now, but there are wonderful activists with bright faces.
This attitude leads to the fact that any classical instrument of the state, which is a priori the mechanism of violence and suppression (you even read Lenin and Marx someday - this is useful) is the right force. Moreover, in the army, it turns out, there is discipline, they go in formation and (oh horror!) Under the state flag. Yes, and with weapons. There are all the signs of right-wing extremism, including the hanging of the flag of Germany. This was precisely the main evidence of the right-wing extremism of the inhabitants of Chemnitz, as we recall. And, of course, the most horrifying thing is that in the army, in fact, they teach to kill people. Instead of teaching inclusiveness and combating climate change.
We also served in the army, and it’s hard for us to imagine an army that didn’t live in barracks but in squats, in the evenings, with groups of activists, discussed and condemned the orders of commanders, hung LGBT banners instead of the state flag, and thrust a clove into the shooting range the muzzle.
No, no, of course, in the barracks they can shove everything they want - what are we fascists, or what? Although, as we recall, it was the fascists who practiced LGBT very much: the memory of a powerful activist in this area, the creator of SA Ryom, who died at the hands of Hitler's vegan, is beating in our hearts.
Now, having discovered the terrible fact that the police and the army, according to their Constitution, are conservative structures, German politicians who copy on their territory everything that comes to them from America, right up to the search for the "police racial violence" that does not exist in Germany, they got alarmed and decided the army finish off the same. There was talk that it was time to again introduce a compulsory call to the service, which was canceled in 2011. For (watch your hands) "a professional army becomes a closed corps and rules from the inside." That is, it must be done by calling everyone to make it more left-wing, and environmentally friendly, and climate-friendly. Chic logic.
You can laugh at this, although there is yet another attack on the state as such with the aim of further seizing power by well-defined parties. But it will be much less funny when the Social Democrats simply begin to distribute ammunition to young migrants who are bored with benefits. They will, of course, call it "conscription." But no one knows which country this will be the army.
