Dass die FDP auf ihrer eigenen Webseite nun ihren, um im Duktus zu bleiben, Schlachtplan veröffentlicht hat, hat nichts mit Einsicht oder einem Anflug von Aufrichtigkeit zu tun, sondern mit einer Recherche von @bertpsch.bsky.social , der die FDP zuvorkommen wollte www.zeit.de/politik/2024...
FDP: In vier Phasen zum Regierungssturz

"Ja, Bluesky ist freundlich, voller netter Menschen und duftet nach nach Schokolade, aber was, wenn das auch von rechten Hasstruppen und von einem durchgeknallten Milliardär übernommen wird? Ich bleibe lieber bei X!", ist das Denkmuster, das die Haltbarkeit vieler toxischer Beziehungen erklärt.
