Germany's self-destruction continues: The Green Party base wants to stop deportations and abolish “prosperity”
The social debate has changed. The Greens, with their fantasies of open borders, are no longer setting the tone. The Chancellor, a Social Democrat, recently announced deportations “on a large scale”. The green base is angry.
The 49th Green Party Congress starts in Karlsruhe on Thursday evening and could get heated. The party leadership is re-elected, the candidates for the European elections are determined and an associated election program is agreed. There are already over 1,600 amendment requests for this.
The party leadership wrote in the main motion: “We want returns to be carried out in accordance with the rule of law. Not everyone who comes to Germany can stay.” A no-go for the base. “There are no humane deportations!” says one application. They are always violent and should therefore be rejected.
“No person is illegal” instead of “repatriations”
Even the creation of the word “repatriation” instead of “deportation” would not change this. Rather, one must oppose the “progressive shift to the right”. The human right to asylum and the human right to freedom of movement – probably intended as a synonym for open borders – should not be restricted. “What we should fight for is a change in how we deal with migrants and refugees – towards fighting for every single person to be able to lead a new life here.”
Another amendment is directed against the phrase “humanity and order”. Instead it should say “No person is illegal”. Because people are not illegal, only their behavior can be illegal. For the green base, unauthorized entry into Germany does not seem to be illegal.

Greens want to abolish “prosperity”
The green base wants to say goodbye to the word “prosperity”. The party leadership named an entire chapter after it: “What Protects Prosperity”. The applicants argue that the term is outdated. As a synonym for material standards and goals, it is incompatible with the election program.
Rather, the term “quality of life” should be introduced. Because the new wording contains much more than just material standards. “Healthy nature and food, external, internal and social security” is what the Greens stand for and also the new term quality of life. “It’s also a sign that the goals have to change.”
Germany should no longer “assert itself” in the future. Simply “being able to meet the international partner at least on an equal level” must be enough. This is what another motion from the party base would like to see. After all, the climate crisis must be solved together. Whoever stays on the sidelines is irrelevant.
