Just go the vote, and make sure your family and friends go to give their votes.
I’m not local, I cannot vote over here, but had seen multiple times in modern times voter suppression has been a big deal, it’s easier to make you not to bother to vote than change your mind who to vote.
I had worked brexit UK, where people voted it due they weren’t happy about the PM. As it was good time to vote against him. Without thinking what brexit actually was. So use your voice by voting. What do you wish the future of country will be in this new era.
I know German has issues, as every Europe union contries. If the problems are easy to solve they would have been solved already, don’t belive one tag line promises.
I’m just wanna say, as a fellow user. Just go to vote.
If you want to die on that hill, then I guess that’s your opinion.
But if someone emigrates to Switzerland or the US to make more money and pay less taxes and becomes a citizen there, I think it’s fair for them to return their German Citizenship and don’t have a say anymore in how this country is run
What is not fair in my opinion is making decisions without having to deal with the consequences
Comparing this with Remigration Plans is completely out of place in my opinion
Right, because there are a few rich people that probably don’t bother to vote anyways, we should strip a substantial part of the German citizens of their voting rights?
That’s the majority destination of Germans emigrating, according to the German Statistical Office
I wrote living abroad permanently. So yes, if you moved abroad permanently , and picked up another citizenship actively, yes I believe you shouldn’t be able to vote anymore in Germany.
The majority of German dual citizenship holders are not the ones that live abroad though. They are ones that actively picked up the German citizenship and live in Germany.
And as I said, this type of voter suppression primarily effects German citizen that temporarily live abroad and do not have any other nationality.
I never objected to them participating in German Elections. I objected to people voting in Elections where they don’t face the consequences.
But I still think they should renounce their old citizenship if possible (If your country doesn’t allow for it like Iran or Argentina then you obviously need an exception to this rule)
It is irrelevant to German citizenship and voting rights what other countries consider to do about their nationals living abroad. But most luckily agree that suppressing these votes is undemocratic and counter producive as these people usually still have a strong connection to their contry of origin and are directly involved with it in multiple ways.
