Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

add 100,000 active troops

Are they going to raise the retirement age to 100? Austerity measures and the EU are inseparable.

once they get to 200000 active troops they can pass the focus tree that lets them remilitarise the rhineland

West germany had a similar sized military. Contrary to whatever people believe there wasnt a demilitarization or any legal restrictions on germany's military.

There also wasn't a real denazification in West Germany

[–] redchert@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 day ago

That was tied to the "no demilitarization"

“100,00 troops” “massive”

yeah but they all grew up using toilets and washing machines, unlike the russians. so it'll work better than last time, i promise.

Wait, I've seen this before

allowing the adolfs to have their own country instead of 400 squabbling micro states was a huge mistake which humanity may never recover from. there is no space for "germany" in any rational society
