  • I’ve been following the German election campaign very closely and the only time social media was even mentioned was when a young lady in one of the town hall formats asked if there were any plans to deal with the danger of social media in the context of impact on young people’s development. The question was put to Alice Weidel. Her answer was basically “No idea. I haven’t dealt with it yet”.

    That was it. Otherwise, the topic wasn’t even mentioned in any discussion round.

    But every single discussion round opened with “the topic that every German is talking about”: migration migration migration migration. Wonder why everybody is talking about that?

    I would like to emphasize this sentence from the article because it is simply true:

    What we do in these next few months will determine whether Europe’s liberal democracy survives or is lost for ever.

    Something has to happen NOW, but nobody is talking about it. It’s really exasperating.
