Ines Schwerdtner is the newly elected cochair of German left-wing party Die Linke. In an interview with Jacobin, she explains how she wants to reconnect the party with a working-class base.

Feel like this is not enough, ngl. their defense on abstaining over redefining anti-semitism is weak, their nord-stream position is kinda true but like - chemical industry is fucked without cheap gas, not auto industry. But hopefully they could figure their reconnection to workers out, because spd is even more shit

    There hasn't been a working class party in Germany for almost 100 years. This sounds like a fantasy, the modern German state, like before, will crush any genuine attempts.

    I do wish one would exist though, I'm not sure if comardes have any sway with the working people in Germany though.
