The user wrote that the biggest concern about the AfD now is that it appears moderate and agreed with Martenstein. If the party were to govern and possibly work properly, in his opinion, the existing political narrative would collapse.

A former woke teacher wrote that MP Nicole Moinat described, according to them, an established order that had lost its moral compass. The teacher stated that criminal organizations were recruiting very young people for explosions, drug trafficking, and assassinations because, according to them, juvenile offenders were hardly punished. In The Hague, according to the teacher, young criminals were primarily seen as victims of their circumstances. The teacher criticized explanations of crime based on disadvantage, personal problems, and a difficult childhood, because those explanations, according to them, obscured the responsibility of the offenders. The teacher also stated that the compassion for offenders was greater than the concern for victims. Young people deserved a second chance, according to them, but it should not outweigh the safety of society. The teacher wrote that the government, out of fear of appearing inhumane, no longer dared to set limits and that the consequences of this were borne by people who obeyed the law. #rechtstaat #criminaliteit #veiligheid (translated)

Furkan Yildirim asked why Wall Street professionals are currently preparing for a potential severe stock market crash, in his view, even though the S&P 500 is just below its record. He cited data such as the Skew Index and pointed out that hedge funds are positioned defensively according to Goldman Sachs as they have been for years. In six weeks, S&P 500 futures worth $63.7 billion have been sold; at the same time, there are record bets on falling prices for small US stocks. There is particular demand for protection against extreme cases. Yildirim announced a macro deep dive with 20 charts from Goldman Sachs, BofA, Deutsche Bank, and TS Lombard. In it, he wants to address market positioning, possible parallels to 1987, 1994, 2000, or 2023, three scenarios weighted by him, and possible consequences for gold and Bitcoin. He asked whether he should record the video on the same day. #Marktanalyse #Investment #Wirtschaft (translated)

Andreas Rosenfelder wrote that Harald Martenstein reported on parents who did not want to talk about a knife attack for fear of being categorized as being on the right. Some still wanted to talk about the death of their child and the consequences for their own lives, while the media interest, according to Martenstein, had been limited. He mentioned a girl as an example who survived the attack but had not dared to leave her apartment for years. Martenstein called this shocking. Rosenfelder described this as a German reality that, in his opinion, the left does not talk about when it criticizes “hate and incitement.” #Messerangriffe #Eltern #Medien (translated)

"As a child of 4, I was told that I could not go to the beach to swim. I felt my parents' fear, saw how they were treated by the whites.
