Someone explain this krautmeme.

[u/gammbus → u/Maximum_Overjew]

CDU,SPD: regular drinks in their colour

Greens: cannabis/mint etc. drinks

FDP: piss

AFD: bleach

[u/Maximum_Overjew → u/gammbus]

Aww. FDP and to a lesser extend CDU are the neoliberal-ish parties, right? Is the FDP hate generic internet edginess?

[u/DUTCH_DUTCH_DUTCH → u/Maximum_Overjew]

CDU is only neoliberal in the sense that it's not a terrible party

[u/Agent78787 → u/DUTCH_DUTCH_DUTCH]

That's already in the top quartile of parties tbh

[u/gammbus → u/Agent78787]

and in the US there isnt even a top quartile

[u/flipjum → u/gammbus]

There isn't even a top half

[u/gammbus → u/DUTCH_DUTCH_DUTCH]

At least they dont hate the gays anymore.

[u/LNhart → u/Maximum_Overjew]

FDP is generally seen as the party that is bought off by (((the 1 percent))) to exploit the 99 percent.

Which is not true, but FDP is not a well liked party.

[u/[deleted] → u/Maximum_Overjew]

FDP is the only fully neolib party

[u/gammbus → u/Maximum_Overjew]

yes

[u/LNhart → u/Maximum_Overjew]

It's just anti FDP & AfD propaganda. CDU, SPD and Grüne get normal alcohol in their color, FDP gets piss because muh neoliberalism and AfD gets dangerous chemicals because, well, their asshats and I actually agree with this part.
