> Many people are simply controlled without realising it. I'm sure that's true in general, and you'll never know whether you did someone else's bidding without realizing it, unless they tell you (but would you believe them?) or you uncover some huge conspiracy (but then who says that's not fake to make you do something else?). I vaguely remember an interview that Adam Curtis made with some British economist for one of his movies concerning stagflation and the general direction of the economy and wages at that time, and he said something like "when I can't sleep, I sometimes wonder whether what we did was exactly what someone wanted and they knew what would happen". As for Die Linke, (the far-left wing of the) SPD and the Greens, I don't believe they're malicious. I believe they mean well, even though I probably disagree with them on most of their core issues.
