I& #39;m going to use a purely hypothetical example to illustrate my point. Let& #39;s say an apocalyptic death cult is trying to conquer the Middle East and you& #39;re calling Berlin for some help to push back. Here& #39;s what you can expect https://twitter.com/marceldirsus/status/1390572741737254915">https://twitter.com/marceldir...

Christian Democrats: "This sounds bad. We& #39;d like to help and we don& #39;t want to be shouted at by our allies again so we can probably do a bit of reconnaissance or like refuelling maybe? Sorry we can& #39;t really do more than that."

Social Democrats: "You want us to make an actual contribution here? That& #39;s going to put us in a really awkward spot because we like shouting peace over and over again but we also want to be seen as responsible. We& #39;ll drag it out and agree to the least meaningful option possible."

Left Party: "Capitalism is evil and your attempt to save innocent women and children from being sold into slavery by an apocalyptic death cult is a prime example of American imperialism. Something something socialism, please don& #39;t contact us again."

Greens: "We are all about human rights and we really care about people not being overrun by apocalyptic death cults but you know there& #39;s just no basis in international law here. So we won& #39;t help but if you do, get ready for hours of lectures on our moral superiority. Talk soon!"

AfD: "As I was saying, the refugees are to blame and Merkel is a dictator using the fake pandemic to destroy the Fatherland. Patriots from around the world have to join forces to stop it. Bla bla bla racism is great and I& #39;m an idiot."

Free Democrats: At this point I have no idea what the FDP wants or doesn& #39;t want so they might help or they may propose a tax cut for the local hospitality industry to solve the problem. Could be either or, it& #39;s a bit of a wild card.
