Germany's New Leaders Shockingly Reject Merkel's Request For 2-Week Covid Lockdown
Obviously what Germany does carries great weight throughout Europe and the Globalist world, and a rejection of the draconian repression that Merkel and others have been calling for could mark a break in what has been fairly solid front of the Global Covid Regime. Have the demonstrations made an impact?
According to Bild, which is a tabloid so take it with a mountain of salt, Germany's incoming government has turned down a request by Merkel to impose a two-week "lockdown for all" immediately following her departure.

The plea was rejected by representatives from the Social Democrats, Greens and fiscally conservative NFP who met with Merkel Tuesday evening in the chancellery, presumably after giving the Chancellor the signal that negotiations were just about to wrap up after more than 5 weeks of talks.
…
Demonstrations against new virus restrictions were observed in Austria, Croatia, Italy, Northern Ireland, the UK, France, Germany, and the Netherlands over the weekend.
The thing I don't get is why Merkel, on her way out, as her very last act, wants to shut down the economy of the country and all freedoms of its citizens even after she is gone. Is that the legacy she wants? Why would she care so much about shutting things down? Why wouldn't she leave that decision to her successor and retire gracefully? Has someone or some organization pressured her to do this?
I sure don't get these lockdowns. Its like some people get power and the immediately go for the throat. They have zero control over themselves and think of nothing better than throwing all their people in to detention. I have a full control let me show you by forcing you into detention. Now grovel before me and beg for each small freedom.
