China courts Germany's far-right populist AfD – DW – 08/11/2023

The far-right populist Alternative for Germany party rejects a values-based foreign policy, just as much as it rejects NATO and the US. That approach has attracted the attention of Beijing.

            Yes, they did. Until some alphabet agency agent co opt the protest, when it’s about inflation and economic crisis. Many Chinese peoples still piss at them till this days, at least learn about the country first before spouting shite

              Riiiight… the country that the CIA had famously failed to penetrate - right until it became convenient for tankies to pretend they actually did, eh?

        For their peer, they vote for the most competent to run the govt, not some snake oil sales man or senile old man that rely on pr popularity to run the damn country. Look at Nigeria, a drug lord successfully make peoples vote for him and now they’re in the brink of war even though peoples don’t like it,

          For their peer,

          Riiiight… I’m pretty sure Xi Jinping hangs with the over-worked factory people every night and does his share of the sewing.

          Tell me another fairy tale, tankie.
