Germany wants to know who is willing to fight
dw.com
Summary
Germany’s government approved a draft law requiring young men to indicate their willingness to serve in the military, aiming to increase military participation without reintroducing conscription.
The survey will target around 300,000 18-year-old males in 2024, with young women given the option to participate. This initiative follows years of recruitment challenges since Germany ended compulsory service in 2011.
With a growing focus on defense in response to Russian aggression, Germany seeks to increase its military personnel from 180,000 to 203,000 by 2030.

Yes, Germany has a right-wing problem, but according to this poll, 74% would have voted for Harris and 11% for Trump.
Polls don't work any more.
Also we don't have a FPTP system, which might be a good thing as well (don't @ me about Erststimme, I know, but it doesn't change the overall point).
Canada says similar but it's looking like we'll vote in our own (more coherant) Trump anyway
I'm not entirely sure "more coherent" is a valuable trait here
No, honestly it's probably the opposite of a valuable trait in this case tbh
this is most likely from feeling let down by the liberal party. especially since they seem to push in a direction that only profits them
sadly, i don't see the ndp gaining any popular votes and people will flock to conservative nutcases hoping for change
That's just because they live in the 21st century.
