It is a real head-scratcher.
I'm just going to be stupidly optimistic after Mamdani's NYC primary victory. That is a huge upset. The NYT and BBC get a lot of flak for their reporting on Israel/Palestine, and rightfully so, but it is unmeasurably better than what German media is presenting. The Hasbara operation coming out of our state media is astonishing. As if they're a mouthpiece, not for Israel, but for the most extremist members of the Knesset. Literally the only reporting someone who reads our Independent news gets from that region is if a Hamas member gets killed, or Israel gets attacked.
US and UK media are doing a much better job, and it shows in the polls.
A person running for political office openly saying what Mamdami is saying would have absolutely no chance of winning any election in Germany or Austria, or the US just a couple of years ago. This is a massive shift. Housing is such an easy issue for the left to jump on. Erasing billionaires should not be a tough one to argue either.
