The crazy thing is that you guys didn't protest, every party beside the AfD accepted that bullshit. How? If I remember correctly the reason there was no vote was because the opinion polls were so in favour that it wasn't even considered necessary. And now if I remember correctly most Germans are Pro-Nuclear again, but the Status quo of every party except the AfD being anti Nuclear persists. Could you explain to me how the hell this happened from an insiders perspective? I'm just looking at this in disbelief as a neighbor, but I want to know what allowed for this madness to happen.

As you surely know, the last time we blindly follwed an authority, that didn't work out for us. Therefore many of us claim that they have learned from history and instead of blindly following an authority... they now blindly follow an authority. Only that it's the left and not the right side now (if you're willing to ignore the one letter in NS that stands for socialism).

It's more elaborate now though. Not only are 6 of 7 parties very left leaning (and these parties established a system to make all their members dependent on following the party line). The media is as well. There are several famous publications highlighting that next to every journalist in mainstream media is very left leaning. And those who are not lean left moderately. If you're not informing yourself you will only ever hear one side of the truth (if it is even truth). And even informing yourself proves to be difficult. For example police doesn't even collect many of the data that could "paint the wrong picture".

There are many other dysfunctional aspects. Over all, it's like being trapped awake in a bad dream while you hope for everyone else to wake up before it is too late.
