Die Linke for the party list and KPD in the constituency, or other way around. If I could vote
It's DKP, not KPD. KPD was banned during the cold war.
Unfortunately DKP will not be on the ballot this time . I voted for them last election but this time the only communist parties on the ballot are going to be MLPD and SGP, both not particularly great choices and sort of a waste of a vote.
Might just have to go with Linke as the least bad option. Although i hate how much they've been capitulating to the establishment on the Ukraine issue (and Palestine, but that's a given in German politics). BSW is better on the war and they're more anti-establishment but they have a lot of other problematic rhetoric that really kind of puts me off. And BSW is probably going to do better in the elections than Die Linke.
Bottom line, there are no really good electoral choices if you're an anti-imperialist in Germany right now. I guess BSW is the closest thing (on the ballot) to an actual anti-war party, but it's hard to ignore their dumb as shit stances on some of the cultural issues...
All i know is Merz is a fucking psycho and unfortunately it looks like he's going to be the next chancellor, and worse still, he's probably going to get there by bringing those lunatic Greens into a coalition who are going to push him even harder to escalate to insane levels of warmongering against Russia.
And CDU absolutely will capitulate to the AfD on immigration. And they will ramp up the neoliberalism even more. And the Greens will make sure that the coalition government will be totally subservient to the US on every geopolitical issue. Basically we're headed for the absolute worst case scenario here in Germany, there's just no other way of putting it.
The only ray of hope i have is looking forward to how much all of these sick freaks will lose their shit when Russia wins in Ukraine, which at this point is only a matter of time.
Isn't there actually a party named KPD that was founded after the DKP?
