Politics will not succeed in rehabilitating the narrative of man-made, CO2-based climate change to suppress, once again, both the dialogue with the AfD and the critical debate on the Green Deal.
The Federal Republic is on an economic crash course. A return to a market economy seems impossible as long as an oversized party cartel rigidly defends the course of the green transformation. The relaxation of the moral contact ban with the AfD by the Association of Family Businesses could now expose the ideological devastation of this path.
Marie-Christine Ostermann has been president of the business association Die Familienunternehmer since 2023. In recent days, the 47-year-old entrepreneur has achieved something many observers of Germany’s economic decline have been waiting for: she has effectively abolished the contact ban against the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, a ban that the political-media establishment has enforced with iron discipline.
Return to Open Discourse
At its core, Ostermann decided something that should be self-evident in a parliamentary democracy: a return to open dialogue. In early October, she invited AfD parliamentarians for the first time to a parliamentary evening hosted by her association -- together with representatives of other parties.
This is how things normally work when an association claims political neutrality for itself. Ostermann justified this step by explaining that the strategy of total exclusion had not weakened the AfD. The party must now be confronted with arguments, not isolation.
This is actually a banality: the AfD -- especially in economic policy -- offers, alongside the radically socialist positions of the Left Party, the only order-policy counterposition to the eco-socialist course pursued by the federal government and its predecessor coalitions.
Criticism From Within
Reflexively, the large state chapter of North Rhine-Westphalia distanced itself from its president. Especially in Düsseldorf, a red-green ideological logjam prevails, embodied by CDU

The greens need to give up their goal of controlling the means of production.
It is amazing how the media in Germany tries to imply that any conservative party is “Far Right” just like the nazis. The only ones the nazis are to the right of is the communists.
“The greens need to give up their goal of controlling the means of production”
The greens, or a group just like them, will never give up their goal of controlling the means of production.
Haven't had a good one of those in years.
Bkmk
This. For Germany, perhaps too late.
The best way of controlling AfD would be to actually inviting them into coalition.
That will take some of the edge of them, made them little more mainstream. The true right wind coalition of AfD with CDU/CSU would be able to solve the immigrant problem and the Co2 problem, and made Germany a lot better.
But ...?
Hard for me to believe that they are still on that stupid “greenie” theology. There must be some slow learners over there....like the ones we have here.
Probably perfectly smart just evil. Green thought is a powerful leverage of control and exploitation.
I fully expect the globalists to start having AFd members killed if it starts to look like they might get into power in sufficient numbers.
German politicians death mystery: The string of deaths has fueled intense conspiracy theories online, particularly among AfD supporters. The debate escalated after AfD co-chair Alice Weidel amplified claims from retired economist Stefan Homburg, who argued the deaths were “statistically almost impossible.”

Not sure if it is still in business, but there was a coffee chain in Santa Barbara, called “Green Star” and of course, they preached environmental sustainability. The logo reminded me of the ones I saw in Moscow, and Leningrad, on the hats of the security men, when I was on a class trip, in the 70s. Curious, I dug in to the history of the company. Sure enough, they were formerly known as “Red Star”.
