Democracy is not as much about everyone being able to vote, as it is about no one having an absolute power. An absolute power so often leads to some absolutely insane inhumane horrors. There is no law that could stop authoritarianism, but there are laws which could slow down the process for those who could prevent it from forming to have the time to react.
No, courts in Germany do not have the power to rule the country, they mediate conflicts and interpret the law. They share their part of the power pie. But in its core they are a tool of mediation. What you are talking about is nonsense. Let people decide “who”, but let the “how” be democratic and safeguarded by the principles outlined above.
Democracy needs protection from those who would misuse it to abolish it's very foundations. The separation of judicial, executive, and legislative power. These are actions taken so power cannot be held by a single branch alone. I'd say that's makes a lot of sense. Germany had it's first democracy abolished before, and I hope we all know, if not remember, how that went for the world.
@@lisilein2 They are literally trying to destroy the seperation of judical, executive and legislative powers in order to "defend" democracy. AfD is a legitimate party for now, yet they get disatvantages even when a court ruled in their favor. It is insane. The enemys of Democracy are already in the government. Our interior Minister tried to abuse the law to censor freedom of press. The Media tries to deliberatly not invite AfD even the people (voters) made them second strongest party. Nothing is fair here and all of this in injust. The only ones who can decide that AfD can be treated diffrently is the constitutional court. And with this so called new "Protection" they just secured that they can decide all of the judges themselves even though a Party gets 1/3 of all votes. It is ridiculous and everybody defending it has either no idea or doesn't support actual democracy just hypocracy
Here my comment, it is not just a no. Please disprove my arguments and explain objectivly how I'm wrong with what I'm saying. Because I would like to get back to dreamworld where everything is like the media says, it was so much easier then to actually think and see how they destroy our country: The real danger for democracy are people that destroy it in order to "save" it from the "wrong" opinion. They are literally trying to destroy the seperation of judical, executive and legislative powers in order to "defend" democracy.

And with this so called new "Protection" they just secured that they can decide all of the constitutional judges themselves even though a Party gets 1/3 of all votes. Before, a Party could also partake in that decision if enough people voted for them. They abolish this now. So how exactly is it Protection? It just portects the power for the old parties so nobody that is new can even reach enough votes to have an impact on this. It is ridiculous and everybody defending it has either no idea or doesn't support actual democracy just hypocracy. We already see what the did with the "Verfassungsschutz". it is highly politically instrumentalised against the opposition, has to follow orders from the government and is in now way objective. If they manage to do the same with the constitutional court, they can just forever ban every political opposition after they get to big. Nothing of this should be acceptable in a democracy. Yet the so called real democrats, do it all to stop the so called "far right anti democrats" from gaining power even though more and more people vote for them. Is it the people or the politicians that should have the power?

The question isn’t “why are German voting for the far right” Its “why is the government and other party so inept that the far right is the only option”
I strongly support this, but also at the same time we should add some protection from activist judges, often but not exclusively on the left who abuse their power to push ideological agendas by reinterpreting laws
@@aktob316 Our Supreme Court has already been taken over by the far-right. In addition, our far-right President-elect has delusions of authoritarianism and his entire proposed cabinet consists of far-right oligarchs.
Germany has had 25 ruling parties since 1945. Among them the CSU, CDU, SPD, Grünen, FDP and DP. With 9 different presidents at their top. So what in the world are you talking about?
the constitutional court needs protection from those who want to use it to get rid of political opponents. a certain guy with a funny beard would have been very proud of the currently ruling parties, he got rid of the opposition too
A step in the right direction. We must learn from the problems that Poland's constitutional court had during the PIS government. Now it won't be possible for whatever government to change the judges in the constitutional court within a single electoral cycle. So one mispick by the public won't cost Germany its democracy.
@@jerrygudknecht6066 The most good faith interpretation of the constitutional republic (that doesn't see it as just synonymous with democracy) is an oligarchy, and that's just what we have now anyway thanks to democracy so I don't see the appeal there.
Democracy is just a word. It means nothing. It was never supposed to mean anything. The only purpose it's ever served is to prop up the regime by rubberstamping its excesses, silencing its dissenters, and shutting down its opponents. Democracy is the biggest enemy of freedom in all of history. If the West is to regain its freedom it must cast off the shackles of democracy and once again take up the crown and scepter of monarchy.
The separation and peaceful transfer of powers. Basically, the opposit of giving one guy all the power (cuz that usually doesn't go well for everyone involved, especially once he dies, and there's no one to govern anymore). By having three different centres of power, judiciary, legislative and executive. You always have oversight through the other factions. And no faction can decide everything on their own. Plus limiting the peoples time in power means, that change can happen peacefully, by voting for it on a regular basis. It takes longer than dictatorship, but it's proven to be pretty nice for the economie and the lives of regular people.
Yes there is freedom of speech but you cannot be antisemitic as Germany tends to be more strict than other European countries on this. Also, recognising Israel's right to be a country is a criteria for German citizenship.
@gamerboyx8243 yeah.. I've heard that. But the word "antisemitic" is very vague. Netenyahu said it antisemitic to criticise israels war in gaza, and that the ICC is antisemitic, Ireland is antisemitic, and usually when an israeli breaks the law and is charged it is considered antisemitism. I just hope Germany will not oppress other people using the pretext of antisemitism
No you don't. You just need to have checks balances and limits to jurisdiction. Left-Boomeroid prattle about "intolerance" has no bearing on a constitutional discussion.
Al-Jolani, Zelensky, Biden, Macron, Scholz, Starmer, Trudeau, and Netanyahu are competing for the clown of the year award. It’s going to be a close contest this year.

They institutet that changes concerning i.e. the term lengths of judges and the retirement age need a two third majority. So you'd need two thirds of the parliament to vote "yes", if you wanted to extend the retirement age for judges for example. How is that biased exactly?
@@lisilein2 why would one assume that a mass of the judiciary is absolutely unbiased, infallible and resistant to charms of favours? Creating such strong and potent protections for the judiciary, be it their term limits or positions imperils a mass of the people under the purview of the judicial system's strong hand. Lets not be naive and believing that the judiciary, anywhere in the world, is operating as part of the larger establishment, which has nothing more than a veneer of pretense that it is standing for the democracy. The whole exercise in this case is a sham, and only seeks to secure every power of the establishment, for their own interests. We have seen what happened in the US, or rather what happens, when the president pardons every crook, thanks to his privileges, I mean Donnie Trump has done it, so has biden, and so has every other person to hold that office. Likewise, removing certain controls and checks that can server as deterrents and preventive controls, from the Judiciary is surely going to have unpleasant consequences. And only in order to stop a right-right party, from coming to power, such actions may in the long haul have some extreme consequences. People generally DO NOT like being constricted or dictated for long, especially when it s done under the guise of a democracy. The truth is, the world over, the left-liberal order is facing a serious risk of crumbling under the weight of its own recent excesses, the wokeness, inviting excess immigration, policies that cause the economies to founder, creating a huge wave of disenchantment, favouring the extreme right, or extreme left for that matter.
