In this video, Yanis Varoufakis lays bare what’s really at stake in Germany’s upcoming election:

  • How the country’s economic collapse is deliberately engineered by its elites
  • Why this election is just a cosmetic reshuffling of the same failed policies
  • The deepening authoritarianism of the German state
  • Why MERA25 is the only real force fighting for change

Germany votes this Sunday—but don’t be fooled. A new chancellor will take office, but the playbook remains unchanged: austerity for the many, money printing for the few, and a relentless march toward deindustrialisation. At the same time, the state escalates its crackdown on dissent, silencing those who challenge the status quo—before the far-right AfD even gets close to “power.” The establishment parties will continue serving the oligarchy, tightening their grip while pretending to offer change. The system won’t fix itself. It’s up to us to overthrow it.
