@ResearchingTheFuture I don't think any political party in Germany could be considered rightwing by any standard.

what has she done that's positive? she's been quite a disaster, though not as bad as some other leaders like in sweden or the UK still that's not much to be proud of.

how? how is nationalism going to destroy Europe when Europe is made up of nationalist states to begin with? if anything Merkel's policies and falures led to brexit and a rise in nationalism because her international policies and multiculti agenda has caused so much damage and shame for everyone not just the german people. in fact a proper goal of the EU is to replace nationalism with pan-european nationalism, so the issue is not with nationalism itself but the policies that go against both these view points, hell even the nationalists have started to realise that Brexit ain't that great so now they want to make a more united front against policies from the EU that undermine their nations well being, see Salvini's plan in the EU.

well I would say she also made Germany much more Authoritarian and oppressive, she's not exactly a bastion of free speech or liberty which is quite lacking in germany, she also kinda messed up nord stream 2, not just the refugee crisis but also her own social policies, and she has done nothing for the high level of corruption with some of her finance ministers which makes hungary or polish corruption look like a joke. only good thing i can realy say about her is how she handled the greek debt crisis which made major reforms to greek economy, it's not that great but making the best from a bad situation. her policies and during the refugee crisis directly led to Brexit so you can't say she kept the EU together as a whole, perhaps it's being harsh but other leaders with worse economies and more problems did better than she did while being in charge of Europe's biggest economy and has realy hurt the pride and self respect of most Europeans and germans. hope her replacement learns from her mistakes, below avarage leadership i would say.

Angela Merkel has to be one of the worst leaders of Germany ever, I can't realy recall anything she did went well, perhaps the greek debt crisis but that was still very costly and not realy solved. it's great that she is finaly going away, though not any real leader in germany exists to fix the mess she left behind, though to be fair, the german people themselves seem to be the problem, they kept voting for her so clearly something is wrong in the country.

did she not also throw a journalist in germany in prison and romanian guest workers isolated, had to give up their pasports and we worked so much they tried to flee to then be taken by the gesta- I mean the german police? the more things change, the more they stay the same. support human rights? yeah the right to be abused, like the new years sexual attacks on woman, as well as a bunch of terrorist attacks, it's not a good look for her in any metric.

@Genexperiment100 please watch the video i posted and the concept of molten salt reactors, there is no reason for you to spread false information, nuclear energy is very safe and already kills way less people compared to coal and nations like France produce over 70% of their energy with nuclear power. not to mention far futuristic things such as fusion. nations like Germany are moving backwards, while France already has embraced the future, France has met their co2 reduction quota, while germany has not and has reopened coal plants, which actually kill people. please don´t spread misinformation, it´s actually very harmfull for everyone, esspecially the planet.

@Janoip I think she is still one of the worst leaders of Germany, no real long term vision for people to believe in, basicaly abandoned the youth of Germany and enforcing policies that will have long term ripple effects that will tear apart the german society and position in the world. The next leaders of Germany will be mostly busy trying to fix the mess she left behind, with new crisis in the near future, few will be able to do much of anything. She in many ways mirrors Tony Blair in enforcing policies that will effect and ruine the country she was suppose to govern, Germany did not even meet their co2 reduction quota's, phased out nuclear energy, I expect a lot of political instability and dread in the german society as they deal with how things were left. Her only saving grace is that she could have been much worse. Now it's easy to just look down on her mistakes and what she could have done better but how about this point that few people bring up, why has she not attempted to push for basic liberal rights? Why has she empowered the authoritarians? Antagonized the nationalists, divided the country, done away with clean forms of energy in favor of mob rule and gas pipelines with another authoritarian state called Russia? Why do all this if she is a liberal and focused on western values? She barely has any, all Merkel realy seemed to care about is power and her actions made major problems worse. I could go on but it's just sad to see this woman be seen as some model politician, while I would describe her more as cunning, cold and calculating, without vision or long term plans. The AFD might have some bad policies here and there but I rather give them a shot compared to Merkel, it's sad to see what Germany has become, esspecialy remembering the optimism of the early 2000s, making way for the sad state of Europe today.

@Svensk_Person how would you call a regime that lockd up prisoners, empowers sanitary fascism, has little to no free speech and openly talks with Mark Zuckerberg on how to censor and silence her own people and opposition. Also forcing millions of migrants on her own people, paid for by her own people, many of whom then die in terrorist and knife attacks by said people being brought in by her. If that's not the rule of an authoritarian, then I don't know what is.

@Aesandar they are just authoritarians, most likely any counter political movement will be just as authoritarian, it takes great wisdom and skill to please everyone and pick the right side at the right time, Merkel picked badly, multiple times and it shows.

@unnanointedonesufi globalism is tyranical for most nations not just Europe, globalisation is not the same as globalism, globalism is the agenda of the elites, against the people for the benefit of the elites, burdening the poor and working classes, it's closer to neo-feudalism more than anything else.

@Tommi414 by lending them money because they had stupid policies and corruption in the country? Not to mention poor tax collection? Greece destroyed Greece, Germany and the rest of the EU had to try and fix the situation, it's not like Germany invaded or caused the economic crisis. You could argue she could have done things better but honestly I can't think of any good solutions for greece, it was the least worst choice she made I would say.

@juanfvt1000 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1QmB5bW_WQ&t=211s you might find this video interesting to dispel some of the common myths people believe of nuclear energy, most of those myths are based off things like simpsons cartoons, green peace or other activist groups.

@Janoip look into her finance ministers, it's in the billions and that's just one very well known sector, let alone what we will find out later after she is gone. Hungary is also corrupt but there it's not as bad in terms of amount being stolen, though it's the same methodes for the most part.

@tomasvrabec1845 in the case of the USA, it is very much a bad thing since it had lead to certain dividing and polorizing ideologies being formed, which is tearing apart the fabric of american life, rule of law, culture and identity, it's not even so much about people being of a different color or background but the lack of intergration, assimulation and americanisation of people coming to the USA and this is by design by the government and policies enforced by the government, the USA has to realy force adoption of american values on people somehow and reduce immigration to a certain degree if it wants to remain stable. as for Europe, Europe is much worse and the very idea of assimulation is a rather new and imported american value which does not realy match these cultures. lets try and wind back time a little, Europe the continent that went into multiple world wars over nationalism and different ethnic groups fighting for their national right to rule, are now allowing million of people to come from all over the world, to settle and change the nature of those countries, who thinks this is going to have a good ending? if the EU can't even agree for the most part on policies made between Europeans, how bad are things going to be once migrant populations settle in for multiple generations? it's just silly to think this is going to work. what's likely going to happen is a series of stagnating and humiliating decline of european nations as well as doubts in it's institutions and a disinterested USA is going to lead to major unstable governments, add to it financial crisis and humanitarian and refugee crisis that makes 2015 look like a joke and you will likely see the rise of extreme political parties, both left and right with radical solutions. it's not pretty or great but it's very predictable to expect that to happen, the best outcome I see going forward is new technologies and rise in wealth in 3rd world countries, limits waves of migrants, and reverses some migrant waves and a more sane and revival of older nationalist and pan-european nationalist ideas will rise and hopefully restore some order and sense of self in a civilized manner, otherwise well we know how nasty history can be, now imagine that with robots and nukes just to add to the spice.

@unnanointedonesufi that's silly, esspecially in this age, nationalism is different for each country around the world, some forms of nationalism is against tyrany from an oppresive government, others are expressed with a focus on individual rights and a strong sense of community and connection to the land, family, culture, religion and identity. the only thing that would lead to war within Europe right now, is if Russia invades eastern Europe, at that point you would want nationalists willing to fight to defend the nation. likewise the EU is not against nationalism, in fact it is nationalistic to a degree but it's rules, policies and mechanism for rule does not represent the majority of the people and so you have a democratic, nationalistic and populistic backlash, ironically the fact that those people are often oppressed, makes nationalism stronger and more radical. if the EU wants to curb the potential of nationalism leading to war of any kind be it civil or foreign, then it needs to act and be seen as legitimate in fixing and having solid long term policies that people can believe in and not sow doubt, distrust and resentment, because those things actually lead to nationalism and so called ''far right'' politics. how did fascism and national socialism and communism rise to power? because a lack of unity with the people, a loss of legitimacy and a rising sense of dispear and resentment which then empowers authoritarian leaders with the promise of ''returning to the good old days and making it better than ever'' even if the EU fell apart their main enemies would likely not be eachother but more so minority groups and factions they consider their enemies, mostly the elites, corporations and those deemed to be hostile forces for way of life and/or existence. as someone who knows a lot of nationalists, non of them want to wage war between other europeans but almost all of them hate the current EU leadership, the heads of state, corporations, the media and outsiders of their native countries.

@unnanointedonesufi you sound brainwashed into thinking all nationalists are fascists, one form of nationalism in Iceland is pacifism. The USA is very liberty based on individual rights. Most forms of nationalism outside of the west is ethnic based or religion, so your basically saying all forms of civilization is fascism, when it's clearly not.
1
@juanmola2000 honestly the style of phrases and use of words, makes me think this guy is a troll but in the case that he is for real, we should still just try and explain it to him, most people don´t know anything about nuclear power or how it works, they just look at the simpsons and go ´´nuclear energy is scary is bad´´ which is just not true.
1
@Janoip basicaly what that means is Germany will become weaker as a nation and on the world stage, probably France and Poland will take it's position, esspecialy with how Germany's population is aging. Then there is also the alternative for Germany party which others don't want to work with but due to the bad policies of the greens and SPD might be tempted to sideline those older parties in favor of something new. But yeah for the coming election cycle the Germans just aren't ready or sane enough for a positive change, it would be nice if they did but they don't seem to care much about the future of their nation or the EU, sad realy.

@seb0rn739 by German standards perhaps, for most sane and liberal countries she's almost a dictator and has been in power for way too long. Censorship, locking up of journalists, dominating german politics, forcing oppresive conditions on the german people, shutting down protests, does this seem like the actions of a western leader? I live in the Netherlands and we have non of these things that she does to germany in the extreme.
1
@seb0rn739 yeah the sanitary fascism of Germany is realy bad, it realy shows just how authoritarian Germany is. How about that time a german dude on life stream got his house kicked in by gesta- I mean swat team because he dared to speak out in his own home against the covid measures? How about all the censorship of people on the right or who disagree with Merkels immigration and refugee policy? Can't mention the rapes and gropes of german woman. Or what about the german minister who praised that Germany was not having many children and that this is a good thing, even comparing most germans to nazi's. Or how about the journalist that got locked up for reporting on government policy? You are delusional if you think Germany is a democracy or a free country, I live in the Netherlands an actual free country compared to Germany and I can speak out against my government whenever I like, we have more press freedom than Germany, our democratic system has more room for many kinds of parties, though like Germany the cabal of elites in power of politics don't like working with non establishment parties, so called Cardon Sanitary. Germany is not a free country, not by a long shot and it's realy sad too, you would think after everything they be more liberal and less insane authoritarian.
