i didnt

CDU and SPD are hemorhaging seats in both federal and state government positions

And we go back to the same point....

if your freedoms can be taken from you effortlessly you don't have them. they are meaningless words on paper.

Our government isn't Merkel

there's hundreds of people

i was using merkel as an example

who have to act consciously and conspiratorially

for even the remotest erosion to our systems to happen

The only loophole of oppression they have is the EU

my point is you have no idea what might happen in the future, which is the point of having a citizenry-backed constitution.

as it supercedes many aspects of a country's legal system

and their actions in the EU

are causing them to lose support

hence why the AFD has become the second strongest party

i'll give you a more plausible example, its 2040, greece decides to cecede from the EU and the EU army invades. what now?

we unelect whatever party approved this and put an anti EU party in power

lol

this austism is

or we continue to elect the party that thought it was a good idea because we thought it was a good idea

its fairly obvious that a totally armed people are impossible to oppress without killing everyone which would defeat the purpose of occupying a territory.

other than resources

India and all the colonies got their independence just fine without toting guns

because it was given to them, dumbass.

That is because Britain isn't a dictatorship

I just find this idea of voting away the tyranny to absurd

Britain isn't a dictatorship yes

@Ϻ14ᛟ it wasn't , now I'm not so sure

but it didn't exactly get given to themn

there was nothing stopping the british from continuing to oppress the indians, they stopped for diplomatic reasons.

You know Gandhi said if it were any other nation in control of India they would have already put a bullet in his head for rallying against him

But British people were not like that, despite occupying the land

my point isn't that Britain was tyrannical

Britain isn't a dictatorship ~~yes~~ yet

because liberalism

@radeon It will never happen to us is the mindset wich gets you into the siad situation in the first place

my point is that there are other ways of achieving freedom than guns or elections

it's both wrong to state elections or guns are foolproof

you had to find a very niche case in which a country intentionally surrendered control

india didn't win their independence, they were granted it out of the kindness of the english.

Let's look at Spain and Catalonia... Spain now holds a political prisoner for allowing a referendum on independence.
