German union parties accused of drifting to the far right
Original: Die # union hat sich von den Rechtsradikalen in ihren Reihen übernehmen lassen und sich nach dem Vorbild der Republikane
Commenters in Germany are accusing the union parties — the CDU and CSU — of being taken over by right-wing radical elements in their own ranks. They argue the parties have adopted the model of the US Republicans and Donald Trump, abandoning claims of pragmatic realpolitik in favour of culture war politics and authoritarian tendencies.
Why now: Debate over the union parties' perceived rightward shift mirrors ongoing controversy about mainstream conservative cooperation with or concessions to far-right positions in Germany.
