Thanks for the clarification. I would even say that I mostly agree with the sentiment. Immigration has been a pointless discussion for years now and I think no party (except the AFD) actually profited from it. SPD and die Grünen have both failed to disspell the AFD narrative.

While I can only guess, I think he/she meant that all the stupid things the government has done so far should not have come as a surprise to anyone. They announced most of it and even the things they kept “quiet” were pretty obvious. So government employees could have searched for alternative jobs beforehand and kind of “brace for impact” and unions could have planned a coordinated response to bullshit firings. Lawsuits could have (and actually have) been prepared so that it would not take months to react to all the stupid stuff that’s happening now.

Or maybe I am completely wrong :)

Bold statement. Do you have any examples? I would disagree, but maybe I just don’t quite understand what you meant.
