GERMANY - The recent elections in East Germany reveal something far more profound than a shift in political allegiance – they signal the re-emergence of a deep-seated German spirit that refuses to bow to the decaying influence of Western liberalism. The success of the patriotic party AfD (Alternative for Germany) in the East is proof of the enduring divide between East and West Germany, a divide shaped by vastly different historical experiences and a clash of values.
East Germans have always been more conservative than their Western counterparts, and for good reason. After World War Two, West Germany was placed under the occupation of the Americans, who imposed their liberal ideology on the German people. Over the decades, this ideology has seeped into every corner of West German society, promoting concepts such as a nebulous “diversity,” multiculturalism, LGBT propaganda, and the insane trans cult. West Germany, inundated by American cultural imperialism, has lost touch with the very essence of what it means to be German, embracing ideologies that are alien to the German soul. It remains occupied in all but name, with numerous American military bases dotting its landscape – a constant reminder that it is not truly sovereign. West Germany’s blind loyalty to America has steered it towards a path of spiritual and cultural ruin.
In contrast, East Germany, under the German Democratic Republic (GDR), was part of the Soviet sphere of influence. Despite what many Western conservatives might believe, the Soviet Union was far from the “progressive” bastion it is often portrayed as. It re-criminalized homosexuality in 1934, dismissed modern art as decadent, and promoted traditional family values – everything that many genuine conservatives in the West today wish their societies would embrace once more. The GDR adopted many of these conservative principles, becoming the last truly German state – a state that preserved and revived the Prussian ideals of duty, discipline, and national pride. As a symbol of this continuity, the GDR re-erected the statue of the glorious populist leader Frederick the Great in East Berlin, reaffirming its connection to the Prussian legacy.
If Germany is to reclaim its identity and future, unity is essential among those who oppose the liberal agenda. Together, the AfD and BSW can become a formidable force that will stand up for the German people and German ideals. The AfD is not the problem – it is the solution. It is the spearhead of a new Germany, one that will rise from the ashes of the old, stronger than ever before.
