  • Yep, but who’s going to give them a better option? Western citizens would have to vote for governments that don’t consider exploitation a “necessary evil” and for politicians that want enforcement of a fair trade supply chain. A prosperous Africa would mean more legal and most importantly highly skilled immigration.

    But western citizens aren’t willing to accept higher prices for goods as a result, so they don’t vote that way. Instead it’s easier to consume indiscriminately and whine when the people living in squalor dare look for a better life abroad.

    Lol, sure. Look at the parties will form a coalition there. Wikipedia says CDU is center right (23%), Linke is far left (12% --> 35%)), SPD is supposedly social democratic and progressive (6% --> 41%), and BSW is all over the spectrum (15% -->56%). The only thing they have in common is that they are political parties.

    I wouldn’t be surprised by AfD + CDU + BSW, honestly. They are politically much closer together than the other possible coalition.
