      As if we had enough workers in all sectors in Germany. I can’t afford to put my mother, who has dementia, in a nursing home because it’s simply too expensive, costing around €3,500 per month out of pocket. There are hardly any Germans left who want to work in the care sector. If someone comes to Germany and wants to and is able to work here, then they should do so. Instead of wasting energy here, we should have invested in training for refugees 10 years ago. Spurred on by the right wing, everything that isn’t German is condemned. Germans are stupid enough to go into that trap .. again

      The fast track was used by a negligeable number of people. It has extremely strict conditions, like having to volunteer for years, speaking C1 German, having a job, etc. Thus, showing you integrated well. This change is nothing but populistic posturing. It solves no real issue.

      Moronic move that does nothing other than hurt a tiny number of highly qualified people who applied for the conditions of fast track (C1 German, exceptional economic or academic achievements, volounteering). It literally just got removed because rightwingers called it “turbo” and fanning up images of illiterate Muslims mass applying for German citizenship in record time. When nobody remotely like that could have ever used it. A sane move would have been to keep the fast track to incentivise highly qualified and integrated people to stay and contribute to the country’s stagnating economy. While sharpening requirements on the normal, regular track used by 99.9% of people, if the argument is it needs sharpening to address fears fanning the far right. But no.

      Another genious move brought to you by Friedrich “i’ll halve AfD” Merz. Middle class expert Blackrock board chairman who doesn’t know what is an ETF but got elected a chancellor.

      What’s the difference between fast-track and slow-track?

      What’s the problem with giving people citizenship after 3 years if they meet your very strict demands? Not that i have a bone in this fight.

      This is just populist optics.

      In the time this “fast track” was signed into law, 195 people were naturalized. That’s 0,065% of all people who received the german citizenship during the same time.

      More people in Bundestag had to vote to change the law, than actual people took on the offer.

      To gain german citizenship you had to:

      – have lived and work here for at least 3 years (that’s now back to 5)

      – have higher education

      – engange in voluntary unpaid community work

      – Speak german on C1 level.

      Conservatives are ruining everything basicly. Instead of progression, they just make up populist problems and “Solve” them.

      They claim that the fast-track was some kind of “Cheap sellout” – when it clearly was a demanding process with higher standards.. and it was less then 200 people actually doing it.

      Jesus, they’re all idiots. They desperately try to appeal to AfD voters but the only thing they achieve with this is scaring away highly qualified immigrants while AfD voters keep voting the original.

      Aside from social media and foreign manipulation, social injustice is one of the main reasons for the swing to the right. You don’t fix that with useless symbolism but with actual good social and financial policies, investing in education and infrastructure and NOT by babbling about the 48h work week.
