Yes, Boo-Boo, I know you sorely long for the old days.

@Thinkerbell Nah, they were on your side. As are the current Authoritarians in East Germany.

The clip shows what was in East Germany when the wall that you wish for was still up.
Goose-stepping communists, although I admit Gorbachev was looking somewhat bored.

@Thinkerbell Yes, the joke was that now that East Germany is full of Fascists, we need to rebuild the wall, this time to keep the Faschos out of West Germany, where I live. I was being a silly boy.

@Thinkerbell You mean in Germany?
Not much, and that's the problem. Germany's government never really integrated East Germany into the rest of the country. This meant there was a wealth gap between the two regions, which meant brain drain as educated East Germans kept moving to West Germany. The result is a lot of poverty in East Germany, which makes people vulnerable to fascist propaganda. That's how we end up with the AfD.
Thankfully, MAGA has failed to implement your ideology in America, and I think the same thing will happen in Germany.
