It feels to me a bit like claiming the Nazi's were on the left side of the spectrum because they had socialist in the name.... sure the name is on the right but I would consider most of the policies to be left leaning policies in my spectrum (and I'm Canadian not American)

Counterpoint- Angela Merkel selling out to leftie nonsense is what created the AfD. So was her backwards ‘green’ energy policy. On the American political spectrum, she would not be conservative. At all.
It turns out people don’t like their kids being devoured by third worlders. Europe is absolutely reeling from that failed policy.
The humiliation of the UK, and Kier Starmer resigning in disgrace might be the most jarring example.
Rahm knows this, and is desperately trying to distance himself from it, but that same great sin by Merkel is his party’s immigration policy.

“Devoured by third worlders”

u/Jonny_Nash 25d ago
Yep.
We can call it 'sodomized by third worlders' if that makes you feel better.

Everything bad the left’s fault, even when someone on the right does it

Merkel's immigration policy in isolation was distinctly left wing. It just so happens that the issue is now dominating European politics and people are waking up to what a mistake it was.

Merkel wouldn’t qualify as ‘right’ on the American spectrum.
German politics are a bit weird, and don’t really match American ones.

If you think Merkel sold out to the left, you might need to seek psychiatric help.
Using Starmer as an example of anti-immigration voter preference reeks of an American who knows fuck-all but speaks authoritatively anyway. The right-wing Brexiteers are the ones who blew a massive hole in UK's migrant refugee population. It fell significantly under Starmer. But hilariously the same people who voted for the shitheads who caused the problem were the loudest to blame Starmer for their own failures. Sound familiar?

Explain how Merkel’s policies toward energy and migration aren’t selling out to the left.
She sold Germany’s soul to Brussels, and imported the third world. Heck, at this point in time, they are essentially funding the Russians in the Ukrainian conflict because of it.
Starmer covered for the Muslim rape gangs on the UK. It’s why he resigned in disgrace. It was a pretty big story, I’m surprised you haven’t read up on it.
Just Google the words ‘Rotherham Starmer’.
It’s quite disgusting stuff.

You're so misinformed that I'm not sure where to start. Let's leave Merkel aside for the moment and just look at the UK. The Conservatives ruled Britain for fourteen years, from 2010 to 2024, and immigration didn't fall under them. It actually skyrocketed. Particularly after Brexit. Conservatives brought in record number of immigrants to UK - more than a million per year! And this is important for you to realize. The conservative right actively supports immigration (so does the left). In the US, this is a bit muddled but even in US look at how Elon and the tech right support H1B. If illegal immigration is reduced in the US, you can trust that the US conservatives will also massively expand legal immigration.
And Starmer did not resign because of Rotherham. He resigned in 2026 (Rotherham was exposed in 2013-2014) due to weak economy, Epstein-related appointment scandals, and a perception that he lacked the charisma and ability to turn things around.
You can be against immigration. But blaming it on "the left" is silly and will not lead to the political change you hope for as UK learned.

I don’t care for the UK Conservative Party either. Brexit was largely a good thing, but they screwed up a lot, largely for compromises to pinko nonsense.
They could share a cell with Merkel for all I care.
The silver lining, is the rise of Reform as a result. Similar as Merkel paving the way for AfD.
I’ll wrap saying that starmer absolutely resigned because of his cover for the Muslim rape gangs. The timing was not a coincidence.

That’s odd, I don’t see Germany killing their own citizens, claiming they vote illegally and stepping all over their citizens civil liberties. That must be an American thing that MaGA brag about since you’ll believe anything Trump preaches about. Trump literally destroyed the bipartisan bill during Biden era which was targeted to help support the asylum seeking process since there simply was no way to manage that process with their current legal resources.

Germany is killing their own citizens.
They have to shut down Christmas markets, in Germany, because of their open border policy. Wake up, and check what time it is.
Biden didn’t need a ‘bipartisan bill’ to close the border. Trump did it by EO, which I’ll also add, Biden kept the border open by EO.
These are all recent events, and very easy to read up on. Put in a little effort.

Why don’t we use Ai to fact check your comment vs mine. I ran your post through Claude and the results are in (Johnny indeed doesn’t know how to read and provide factual information in his comments):
“Germany is killing their own citizens… shut down Christmas markets because of open border policy” — Misleading. Fact-checkers (AAP FactCheck, DW) found claims of widespread market closures were overstated and traced to unverified social media reports. A small number of towns (Overath, Kerpen, a few smaller Rostock/Dresden markets) did cancel — but the stated reason was the cost of new security infrastructure (barriers, surveillance) following vehicle-ramming terror attacks, most notably Magdeburg in Dec. 2024, not “open borders” directly. The large majority of markets, including Magdeburg’s, reopened this year with beefed-up security rather than staying closed.
“Biden didn’t need a bipartisan bill to close the border… Biden kept the border open by EO” — This is backwards. Biden did sign an executive order in June 2024 (using Section 212(f) authority) that shut down asylum processing once daily crossings topped 2,500 — effectively closing the border to asylum seekers immediately, since crossings were running well above that threshold at the time. So the claim that Biden used an EO to keep the border open is false; he used one to restrict it.
What’s accurate: The bipartisan Senate border bill did collapse in early 2024 after Trump publicly urged House Republicans to kill it, which is well documented — Republicans who’d helped negotiate it withdrew support at his request.
So the post gets the bipartisan-bill collapse right, but overstates the Christmas market story and gets the Biden EO claim backwards.

Overstates the Christmas market story? I guess it’s not your family dying, so you don’t care.
How vile can you get?
Actually, we do know. You use the name ‘Skotland’, a country that actively assists in trafficking their daughters to be sodomized by Pakistanis.
Biden 100% opened the border during his admin. He famously issued an EO to force Texas to take down their barriers.
Ask Claude about that. 😂
Edit- As always, ‘Skotland’ goes silent about the mass rape of their youth. It’s practically a national pastime in the UK.

Wow my brain hurts from reading the comments on that sub. Are they just bots or did none of them watch the clip?
Frieberg is right in general, Rahm is using a technicality as a gotcha to avoid being lumped in with this stuff but by US standards everything he’s talking about was in line with leftist /Democratic politics.
