Which of the Pandemic Parties CDU, SPD, FDP, Greens or Left should one vote for?The voter faces the agony of choice: Which of the established pandemic parties would, in the next — and the one after that — “crisis,” strip away fundamental rights even faster, even more harshly, and even more thoroughly? 
Who would most efficiently reinstate mask mania, testing mania, vaccination mania and fearmongering as principles of government? And who would most relentlessly brand critics as a threat to “public health,” only to let any genuine reckoning quietly fizzle out afterward? Let us take a look at the candidates from the last great state-of-emergency orgy. Because one thing is clear: The same clique that subjected us to exponential curves, the “pandemic of the unvaccinated” and moral blackmail from 2020 to 2023 is still ready. And they have learned — just not what one might have hoped. CDU: The Panic Managers of the First HourUnder Jens Spahn and Angela Merkel, the foundations were laid. Spahn, the man behind the billion-euro mask deals, still defends the excessive procurement to this day as “better too much than too little.” The fact that billions of masks were ultimately destroyed and taxpayers’ money was burned on an absurd scale was simply the price of precaution. The CDU/CSU helped impose lockdowns, school closures and the Federal Emergency Brake. Spahn coined phrases such as the “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” thereby fueling social division. Criticism of the measures was quickly shoved into the corner occupied by deniers and “Querdenker.” A genuine reckoning? The Union avoided it for a long time and instead prefers an Enquete Commission that is supposed to proceed as consensually as possible and without assigning genuine blame. For future crises (climate, Russia, the next virus), the CDU is the party of “necessity”: Action will have to be taken, and it will have to be decisive.SPD: The Moral Preachers of CoercionKarl Lauterbach and Olaf Scholz stood for the escalation stage. Lauterbach, the eternal alarmist, demanded mandatory vaccinations, threatened fines and effectively declared the unvaccinated a security risk. Scholz openly proclaimed that mandatory vaccination was necessary because an unvaccinated minority should not be allowed to drive the entire country into lockdown. The lockdowns were imposed by politicians, not by critics of the measures and not by the coronavirus. The SPD turned solidarity into coercion and caution into a permanent state of affairs. Mask mandates, 2G/3G and testing orgies were declared the new normal. Criticism? It was dismissed as an attack on science and social cohesion. A ruthless reckoning failed under the traffic-light coalition, not least because of SPD concerns about a “tribunal.” Instead, it was preferable to keep ordering vaccines and running PR campaigns long after the acute phase had passed. For the future: The SPD provides the moral elevation that sells every intervention as an ethical obligation.Greens: The Relativizers of Freedom with the Clearest ConscienceAnnalena Baerbock and company believed that it could not be the case that everyone’s fundamental freedoms were restricted simply because some people did not want to get vaccinated. It was politicians who restricted fundamental freedoms — not the unvaccinated. Robert Habeck argued that solidarity meant that the unvaccinated could not expect others to give up their freedom. It was downright absurd. The vaccinated were supposedly protected, while the unvaccinated did not want to be “protected.” Consequently, there was no reason for restrictions. The Greens were a driving force behind stricter access restrictions and for a long time demanded tests and masks wherever they seemed “necessary.” Critics were readily branded as a danger to vulnerable groups and as spreaders of disinformation. Today, the Greens are calling for scrutiny of Spahn’s mask deals — but only selectively, and certainly not together with the “wrong” opposition. For future states of emergency (especially climate emergencies), the Greens are the ideological vanguard: Fundamental rights are negotiable as long as the higher good (the planet, health, solidarity) demands it.FDP: The Flexible FollowersChristian Lindner and the FDP sometimes presented themselves as guardians of freedom, but often voted for or enabled the major packages. They called for more testing as an instrument for easing restrictions and warned against permanent lockdowns — only to then go along with them in the traffic-light coalition. Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann was among the MPs who called for general mandatory vaccination for everyone aged 18 and over. In February 2022, she publicly stated that the aim was to pass such a law in March so that the mandate could take effect on October 1, 2022. “The unvaccinated must not be allowed to terrorize the majority as a minority.” Some MPs rejected mandatory vaccination and masks in schools, but the party as a whole neither prevented the Federal Emergency Brake nor the social division. The FDP is the party that later says it knew all along, while having been part of the government. For the future: They will be “proportionate” — until the pressure becomes great enough.Left: The Advocates of Socially Justified ControlThe Left criticized some of the economic consequences and the mask deals, but was by no means consistently opposed to restrictions on fundamental rights. It rejected certain forms of mandatory vaccination (because the rich might be able to buy their way out), but nevertheless called for state control and protective measures. Critics from the right were attacked, while its own skepticism remained selective. In the reckoning, they call for investigative committees — above all targeting the Union. For future crises: More government, more control, more “social justice” through coercion.Why No Genuine Reckoning?Because they all went along with it. A genuine reckoning would mean admitting mistakes: models that overestimated the threat, excessive measures with devastating collateral damage to children, the economy and mental health, the ineffectiveness of masks and tests in many settings, the lack of protection provided by the “vaccines” with regard to transmission, and the stigmatization of the unvaccinated. Instead, there is an Enquete Commission that is supposed to work as much as possible “without assigning blame along party-political lines” and is allowed to report by 2027. Drosten warns that proceedings against Fauci (who refused to testify more than a hundred times in order not to incriminate himself) would jeopardize preparedness for future pandemics. The truth, then, is supposedly dangerous to the narrative and to the readiness for the next crisis.Money from special coronavirus funds continues to flow: Magdeburg University Hospital is receiving tens of millions of euros — among other things for isolation wards, separate waiting areas and infectious-disease departments. Officially, this is modernization and crisis resilience. Unofficially, it sends a signal: The infrastructure for the next state of emergency is being quietly expanded. Something appears to be planned — or at least being prepared. The Choice of the Subject Who Wants to Be Disempowered!So whom should one vote for if, during the next pandemic (or climate emergency, escalation with Russia, or some other politically induced state of emergency), one wants to be restricted, harassed and controlled in one’s fundamental rights as quickly and thoroughly as possible?
The voter who voluntarily places themselves in the hands of these parties should know what they are getting: Not the protection of their freedom, but the guarantee that, if necessary, anything goes again — only better prepared, with isolation wards and moral superiority. Anyone who wants something else will have to look outside this cartel. Within it, the choice is merely a question of who pulls the reins most elegantly. Author: AI-Translation - АИИ | |
