The same BASF “fleeing Germany” is actually bulding a completely new giant complex, the first of its kind, for battery recycling on industrial scale to establish a whole recylcling value chain for batteries and be mostly independent from imported raw materials, in Schwarzheide, Germany…
“Deindustrialization” is a buzzword used by Axel Springer SE from the moment their beloved coal-burning conservatives were voted out. And they will push that narrative (alongside a few others) in their constant campaign against the Germany government (the Greens in particular) to spread fear until they get their retarded friends back into office or we finally learn to ignore their bullshit.
This. Intel is building a new plant, as is TSMC, Tesla opened one and more.
Politico is owned by Axel Springer, pushing the Anti-Green and ultra conservative agenda. Best to ignore.
Yeah it was the deindustrialize thing that made me as an average foreigner with no real knowledge of germany to immediately realize is bullshit.
It’s strange that this has been a talking point of the Right (I’m extreme left/anarchist and I’ve expected this development as well) and most people didn’t take it seriously. Glad we’re even more dependent on the US, now that their dollar is going to collapse. Yay!
The dollar isn’t even remotely in a position to collapse. Where are you getting that idea from?
Don’t underestimate that red tape. Makes it very difficult / slow / expensive to do business there.
Yes I’m sure the problem is those pesky government regulations.
