  • Unlikely, they’re happy with their result.

    It’s however possible that the conservatives will run the Austrian playbook. Talks with the social democrats fail, “we have a responsibility to Germany to form a government”, then make a coalition with the AfD (Nazis).

    Back to your original question: the BSW will likely contest the elections, as they have missed the 5% threshold by only ~14k votes and there are evident irregularities. For example, many Germans living abroad, for example those living in the US, had almost no chance to cast their vote.

    Yeah well and ideas occur to you after you’ve experienced something and by proxy that is one reason why people will always put their own basic needs above some abstract idea of a better world and everything. As opposed to “just think about a better world and talk about it and people will believe in it and fight for it”. Which doesn’t work, in case that’s news to anyone. Although in the 1840s, it really was.
