Dec 14, 2022 at 14:41 comment added nvoigt You seem to have a weird definition of "right wing" and "left wing". A German politician should be concerned first and foremost with the actions of Germany, no matter what their political leanings are.
Dec 14, 2022 at 13:38 comment added user27557 @PhilipKlöcking No, it IS populism. Example: He uses "profits" as an argument, when he clearly knows it's possible to support Ukraine without making profits. He He knows that. He uses this gaslighting pseudo-argument to form a public opinion (via the interview, that's the reason he's even giving this talk). He has been using this tactic quite often to talk down crimes of the GDR regime.
Dec 14, 2022 at 10:02 comment added user27557 @nvoigt that would be right for a nationalist, not for a left wing politician whose priority should be helping other nations
Dec 14, 2022 at 8:24 comment added nvoigt "He doesnt even see the people of Ukraine as the most important topic here, he's focussed on "correct behaviour" of Germany" - seems to be right for a German politician, asked about German policy on German Media.
Dec 13, 2022 at 21:59 comment added Philip Klöcking This has nothing to do with populism. Populism is about steering and using public opinion. Gysi is one of the few German politicians who is both well-read and articulate. He even admits in the last sentence that in this case, it might be rather due to sentiment than argument. So keep your own populism to yourself, please.
