2.) Are Peter Pilz' political views (and that's his real name - wow) comparable with Boris Palmer's or Oswald Metzger's?
2. Don't know about Palmer and Metzger's views really.
Palmer yesterday was a guest in the German talkshow hart aber fair, where he stated that Pilz was much more left-wing on welfare and economic issues than he (Palmer) himself.
Altogether I would say that Pilz is further to the left than Metzger and Palmer on most issues, particularly welfare/economy. But at the same time he managed to appeal to some "realo Green" voters better than the Greens because they could culturally identify better with him than with the original Greens.
Exactly. Palmer is regularly attacked by the Antifa. that terrorist organization even managed to have his FB shut down for a short time because he used the word
Mohrenkopf.
In May, he took a pic of a group of refugees waiting at a train station, who didn't buy a ticket. Later they were caught dodging the fare. Palmer uploaded the pic on FB, commenting with the words if it is racists to "describe that traveling by train has changed in the last years" and if it is "xenophobic to feel uneasy by doing so".
Link to focus.deHe also wrote a book called
We cannot help everybody, which was heavily criticized by his Green party colleagues, and just recently he wrote a commentary on
The European in which he stated that family reunification of refugees would lead to a decrease in quality of education and that that in return would lead to less acceptance of the welcoming culture among middle-class intellectuals.
