Friedrich Merz, Germany's new chancellor: "The interference in the German elections by Elon Musk and Trump's Washington was no less radical and outrageous than that of Moscow." #GermanElections #CDU

Brilliant take on what’s going on. Most people I see voting the #fckafd have no connections to foreigners or economic concerns. It’s been a media 💩storm and I think I know who’s been feeding it. It’s more important than ever that #Merz takes the wind out of the #fckafd‘s sails from Day 1.
One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.
This isn’t some rant saying “Germany has learned nothing from its past” - the reality is more subtle than that. Middle-class Germans live and travel with an incredible amount of ease and comfort, and they just got…sleepy. Many of them dismissed the far-right’s rage as just another set of complaints.

Trump administration is completely consolidating all federal power in the executive. Do you think they ever have any intention of giving that power up ever again? There won't be free and fair elections ever again because they can't allow that kind of power to change hands and be used against them.

Wrote a little review for VISIONS magazine about one of the best albums by the fabulous @lsdunes.bsky.social. Kaspar, the Rock Beardie, approves.

Now - how to get tickets to their show when they’re all sold out and the local record co rep is a bit of a Fräulein?

I was interviewed about German politics this morning. Why would EM support the #fckafd when they are anti-American, was one of the questions asked. All these nerds and outcasts who were bullied getting their own back? Strength in numbers? Please enlighten me with your thoughts. Dankeschön.

Well, at least the German weekly Die Zeit (and the Germans know a thing or two about the Nazis) seems to have made up its mind👇

When you were growing up, what did you imagine you would do if nazis invaded your country? That is probably still your best guide for what you ought to do now.

Serious question.
Do you think Americans will get a chance to vote freely in three years and ten months?

I've been reading Adrian Edmondson's excellent autobiography Berserker!, and this observation on the writing process is something I think a lot of creatives will find highly relatable (in my case particularly the Fantasy Football bit).
