Why our enemies dislike Greens (and why we like them):
HTML https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2021/04/03/swedish-green-party-white-women-must-move-for-foreigners-to-take-power/
--- Quote ---
> Swedish Green Party spokeswoman Märta Stenevi has claimed that
in order for foreign minority women to get power in Sweden,
native-born white Swedish women must move aside.
>
> Stenevi made her statements during a podcast interview after
being asked about the differences between the voting patterns of
male and female voters in the country.
> ...
> When asked why so many women vote for the Greens compared to
men, Stenevi stated that power may be a factor and stated that
those with “privileges” may feel threatened over a new division
of power.
>
> Going even further, she stated that not only must Swedish men
give up on power, but native-born Swedish white women must do so
as well: “If foreign-born women are to gain power, white,
domestically born women will have to move.”
>
> Similar comments have been made in the past by members of the
Swedish Green Party, such as in 2018 when local Green Party
members in the town of Eslöv suggested that native Swedes who
had a problem with multiculturalism should just leave.
>
> “There is another party that wants to persuade immigrants to
relocate,” Lars Ahlfors, chairman of the local Greens, said,
referring to the anti-mass migration Sweden Democrats, and
added: “We think that if you do not enjoy multiculturalism,
there should be an opportunity to give a helping hand to move.”
> ...
> Last year, in the southern region of Skåne, the Greens made
headlines again after suggesting that in the wake of the
anti-mass migration, pro-family Polish government oversaw the
introduction of new restrictions on abortions, Swedish taxpayers
should foot the bill for Polish women to have abortion
procedures in Sweden.

Alternatively, Swedish taxpayers could pay for airstrikes on

membership applications as it shapes up to be a serious rival to
Angela Merkel's CDU in elections later this year.

> The increase, which comes a week after it was announced that
Annalena Baerbock will lead the party at the federal election in
September, represented the most membership applications the
party has ever received in a single week.

absolute record in party history," Greens Federal Managing
Director Michael Kellner told the German Press Agency on Sunday.
“Things are going well for us and that puts me in a good mood.”

significant chance of taking Germany’s top job for the first
time when Merkel’s 16-year reign ends this Autumn.

surprise announcement over favourite Robert Habeck. The pair
were selected as co-leaders three years ago, representing a
victory for the party’s pragmatic bloc over its radical flank.
>
> In the week after Baerbock’s announcement, the Greens received
2,159 membership applications – roughly 10 times the usual
number. It now has 107,300 members.
>
> Meanwhile, the rival CDU has been plagued by infighting in
recent months. Once unassailable under Merkel’s leadership, the
party has only just emerged from a bruising leadership battle
which has seen their standing in the polls fall by 10 points
since January. They now command just 27 per cent of popular
support, slightly ahead of the Greens on 23 per cent.

to bring together a coalition of centre-left and left-leaning
parties to form a government.

> Green politician Marquardt organizes his own Kabul charter
flights

> An initiative led by the Green politician Erik Marquardt wants
to bring people from Afghanistan to safety. A first evacuation
flight is being prepared in detail. Military experts speak of a
high-risk project.
>
> Activists involved in sea rescue in the Mediterranean are
planning donation-financed charter flights to evacuate people
from Kabul. The Civil Fleet Support association, headed by
33-year-old Green politician Erik Marquardt, claims to have
“chartered a plane that we will use to fly to Kabul.”
> ...
> According to its own information, the initiative for the
charter flights works closely with the situation center and the
operational command. “However, the bureaucratic processes of the
German bureaucracy prevent flexibility in many areas, which we
can ensure,” says the campaign website.
>
> In a video published on Twitter, the Green politician and
chairman of the Civil Fleet Support association speaks of the
fact that the charter flight to Kabul is “also in consultation
with the federal government.” It was not communicated in advance
because it should be ensured beforehand that the charter plane
can be used. “We want to fly to Kabul as often as possible,”
says the video message, which is linked to an appeal for
donations.
>
> In the short term, no further information was available from
the Green Party politician Marquardt, the Airlift Initiative or
the Bundeswehr Operations Command. “We are currently busy around
the clock with our evacuation flight to Kabul. Please understand
that we cannot give interviews at the moment because we simply
don’t have the time,” said the initiative.
>
> Marquardt was the spokesman for the Green Youth and has been a
member of the Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen party council since
November 2015. Since the European elections in 2019 he has been
a member of the European Parliament as part of the Greens / EFA
group. He is chairman of the Berlin association Civil Fleet
Support, which chartered rescue ships for civil sea rescue in
the Mediterranean through donations. The initiative of the Kabul
charter flights now announced by the association is supposedly
supported by around 100 initiatives and groups, as a list under
the call for donations shows.

> Germans will go to the polls on September 26 to vote in a
general election. Based on current polling numbers, Angela
Merkel’s party the CDU (Christian Democrats) and its Bavarian
sister party the CSU (Christian Social Union) are going to
suffer severe losses in the election, and a coalition government
of the Social Democrats (SPD) and the Greens will be the most
likely outcome.

I of course do not trust the SPD, as it is the party which
produced this piece of ****:
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thilo_Sarrazin
--- Quote ---
> The party leadership of the Social Democratic Party (SPD)
announced in August 2010 that it would investigate whether to
terminate Sarrazin's membership, because his theses could be
understood as diametrically opposed to basic social-democratic
values.[20] An arbitration committee, meeting in Berlin on 21
April 2011, decided that Sarrazin could remain a member of the
party.
--- End Quote ---
A Green-SPD must be Green-dominated if we want to get things
done. Therefore it is imperative that the Greens win not merely
enough seats to enter a coalition government, but win as many
seats as possible so that they have the loudest voice within any
coalition that might be formed.
