Caught Lying Again – CDU Minister-President Sven Schulze Once Again Spreads DisinformationAh yes, the establishment parties and their endless hypocrisy. The very same CDU-SPD-Greens-FDP politicians who have spent years lecturing us about the fight against "disinformation," pushing through censorship laws such as the successors to the NetzDG and the DSA, forcing platforms into preemptive censorship, and who would gladly establish a digital Ministry of Truth to "protect" the public from "false information"—these are the very people who shamelessly spread falsehoods in their own timelines. 
On July 29, 2026, Minister-President Sven Schulze (CDU) posted a classic campaign message on Facebook: "You can place both programs side by side (CDU vs. AfD). The difference is black and white. On one side, there are flags, hashtags, and committees. On the other side, there are 10,000 jobs in Leuna, free daycare for the second child, and over €100 less in annual grid fees. One is about slogans; the other is about substance."Sounds convincing, doesn't it? It's the typical CDU narrative: we're the doers, the others are just symbolic politicians. Unfortunately, most of it is distorted, exaggerated, or simply misleading. Classic disinformation techniques—the very thing the establishment parties claim they want to "protect" us from whenever it comes from their political opponents. The False Dilemma and the Straw ManSchulze constructs a crude either-or scenario: either flag-hashtag-committee ideology (meaning primarily the AfD) or CDU substance. That's rhetorical deception. Every relevant party platform contains economic and social policy proposals. Reducing the opposing side to "flags and hashtags" is nothing more than a cheap straw man. Anyone who actually compares the party platforms will find complex proposals on both sides—not merely symbolism versus reality.10,000 Jobs in Leuna – CDU Magic?"10,000 jobs in Leuna" makes it sound as though Schulze personally created thousands of new positions. Reality: the Leuna Chemical Park employs around 10,000 people across more than 100 companies. Those are not newly created CDU jobs—they already existed. During the DOMO insolvency, around 436 jobs were preserved through extensive efforts, at considerable expense to taxpayers (emergency operating costs amounted to roughly €80 million). This was not a CDU miracle but crisis management in a difficult environment shaped by investors, global markets, high energy prices, and federal and EU policies. Claiming "CDU = 10,000 jobs" is a gross exaggeration.Free Daycare for the Second Child – And What About the AfD?Yes, the sibling rule (free daycare starting with the second child) exists in Saxony-Anhalt. But presenting it as an exclusive CDU achievement is misleading. The AfD's platform actually calls for free daycare starting with the first child, plus free lunches. Schulze deliberately omits the fact that his political competitors go even further. The claim that "only we deliver substance" is simply misleading.Over €100 Less in Grid Fees – Is the CDU Lowering Electricity Prices by Magic?Grid fees are not determined by the state government. They depend on federal legislation, regulatory authorities, and grid operators. The reductions expected for 2026 vary across Germany and by region—in Saxony-Anhalt, approximately €100 for the entire year (around €8.33 per month)—but they are not solely a CDU achievement. Schulze presents the savings as though they came directly from his own pocket or from the Saxony-Anhalt state budget. This is a classic example of claiming credit for developments that were driven by others or by multiple actors.The Big Framing Exercise: We Have Substance, You Only Have Hype"One is about slogans; the other is about substance" is not a fact but a value judgment presented as objective truth. This is precisely the kind of manipulative rhetoric that the establishment parties accuse others of using whenever they themselves become the target of criticism. Selective presentation, oversimplified causality, false dilemmas—it's all there.The irony is impossible to ignore: the very politicians who portray "disinformation" as a hybrid threat and demand greater online control are themselves spreading campaign disinformation. When ordinary people seek the truth, they're expected to rely only on the "right" sources—that is, theirs. But criticism of their own side? Suddenly that's dismissed as "mere hype." Sven Schulze has once again been caught lying, once again demonstrating the familiar double standard.
