AfD support is definitely stronger in the East, but it is not exclusively an Eastern party, and (unfortunately) has very significant representation in the West as well -- and in fact more supporters in the West than in the East (though

No, social media does. It's smartphones + social media then. The main point is, before phones, SM didn't have nearly the reach and toxicity that it has now. Don't be so snarky.

To really understand and deal with it - the incident was a heavy-handed and botched government/police move against some "non-compliant" urban poor people. Who just happened to be black.

I wonder what the reason is Multiple factors, including transportation, land use, and yeah, what you're hinting at. The Guardian isn't especially anti-nuke these days, btw.

Shouldn't I also get special tall person seating and whatever with extra space? I don't see why not. Can I get a suv for the price of a compact car because I don't fit in one? Can we think of more orthogonal issues to inf

Maybe you should check the source data set yourself You understand that your simply closing your eyes and imagining that this data set must exist (and in the level of detail that you want it to have) doesn't make it so, right?

The only records they referred to were in regard to outputs (end-of-year profits, compensation for upper-tier employees). Not in regard to how federal moneys were spent.

At the very least - there should be some explicit accounting of where the money went. And some provision for ensuring that front-line workers are adequately protected and compensated.
