Deutschland schafft sich ab
Germany faces its greatest economic crisis since the Second World War, thanks to the unrelenting idiocy of our political and media classes.
For about a week now, gas has not been flowing through Nord Stream 1, the crucial pipeline from Russia to Germany. Officially, it’s down for scheduled maintenance, and we’ve even been treated to a minor farce, featuring Robert Habeck pleading with Canada to violate their own sanctions and return to Russia a pipeline turbine that had been shipped there for repairs. Unofficially, of course, we’re being squeezed, as an inducement to stop our war-prolonging material support to Ukraine, and for our imprudent bellicosity towards the country that keeps our lights on.
It turns out that Russia can do without German automobiles, but Germany can’t do without Russian gas.

Germany hasn't been known for smart Geopolitical decisions since Bismarck's day.
And that was more Prussian than German.

Germany has a long standing tradition of amazing accomplishments in science and craftsmanship and keeping a beautiful and beerful country running where pretty much everything works...
Not for long. Their skilled workforce is mass retiring, there isn't enough in the new generations to replace them and their industrial inputs and markets for their outputs will both be drying up in a world where globalization is going down the fucking drain (mainly in the form of collapse of secure shipping as well as market access).

I think it is already over. When I travelled in Germany circa 2010, it was a really nice country, enjoyed visit/beer/scenery/people a lot. In 2018 it was already fucked up, trains not departing on time, trash all over larger cities, a...

Wir stehen fest an der Seite der 🇺🇦. Aber wir müssen auch deutlich sagen: Das Festhalten an #Nordstream2 war als Antwort auf die Annexion der Krim aus heutiger Sicht der deutsche Beitrag zum Ausbruch des Krieges, so Bundesjustizminister @MarcoBuschmann bei #G7Justice. pic.twitter.com/LfiBTDouxT

We stand firmly by the side of the 🇺🇦. But we also have to say clearly: From today's perspective, sticking to #Nordstream2 as a response to the annexation of Crimea was Germany's contribution to the outbreak of war, according to Federal Minister of Justice @MarcoBuschmann at #G7Justice. pic.twitter.com/LfiBTDouxT

Germany is free to do trade with whomever they want and they should do so, their problem was never Nordstream 2, it was gutting all their own perfectly safe and reliable nuclear reactors and coal plants. The only reason for the Ukraine/Russia war is 3 corrupt regimes, the US, Russia, and the Ukraine, deciding the hell with diplomacy, let's just fight yet another unnecessary war.
