Greens now to the right Merkel on this. I'm making the Green-voting libs among my friends and family uncomfortable by pointing this out. The Greens have dropped every issue they ever pretended to care about. Main reason I hear for why people still want to vote for them is lesser-evil-ism or because they feel protective of them against far-right rhetoric. No matter that the Greens are also a nationalist, neoliberal, racist, imperialist, militarist, green-washed ghouls. Main difference between them and straight up conservatives is in rhetoric: the Greens will cry and moan about "having to do" this stuff, and how that's actually good for you. Except with the imperialism, they did the crying and moaning already during Kosovo, now they're on a straight up mission to spread freedom and democracy to the backwards people like they're channeling George W. Bush.
