The mighty German industrial sector survived two catastrophic world wars, hyperinflation, the partition of the country, communism, but couldn't beat an autistic teenager playing hooky (media.kotakuinaction2.win)

Don't worry. The far-left eco-socialist German government and its media have the people protesting the rise of right-leaning parties. That'll surely fix the economy!

Seriously, most Germans are retarded. They vote for feels and gibs and then blame the only party who wants to fix things and who has never been in the government yet.

Literally know only one lefty friend who votes for something other than the AfD. Everyone from family to friends to even Co workers and other acquaintances seems to vote for AfD. Somehow, the lefty BS still gets high polling(though granted its slowly going down)... Something doesn't add up. Not to grab the tinfoil hat but there's at least some level of influencing of elderly I know.

Granted, I don't know how it looks in big cities, I don't wanna live in a big city, ever.

Big cities are far-left voting pools. In Western Germany in particular people blindly believe state-run media and the usual far left propaganda outlets.

I unfortunately live near a large Green shithole. Doesn't even matter if it's Greens, SPD or CDU. It's all the same. AfD got like 6% here in the last federal election.

Last I checked they were still building things. And definitely designing things. We can argue about the quality. I don't know what this is about.

Maybe in relation to developing countries with 10x the population. If the output matched the population, well, you'd still expect China to have 1/6 of everything BUT. Some other countries have large populations, and if they product according to that they will displace Germany which has had an outsize sector. But they could continue to have an outsize sector is my point. Total production goes up.

A lot of old German companies have in fact been bought by Chinese companies, who continue to operate and sell with the German brands.

Germany isn't building much anymore. At best you have the head offices in Germany but production has moved to China or other EU countries.

I recall Germany's oldest paper mill shut down due to outrageous energy costs.

Tbf paper is a difficult business to be in right now.

I've heard of mills having to switch over to cardboard (fewer letters, more Amazon boxes) or give up. many in the US shutdown, too, and often this was celebrated because they're smelly eyesores.

I guess you'd have to show me a statistic. I see what they build, like industrial machinery. That does not account for what they no longer build.

No no, anything German and News implies that Germans deserve it for the war.

Germany is under an overwhelming occupation by people who take, and give nothing back. There's only so long one can remain a superpower in those conditions.
