^^Try watching 3sat and Arte, for example. They are originally Austrian and French, but you will be able to understand it, since it's mostly in german. You don't have to watch RTL all day.
How do you value freedom of speech, human rights etc?
The discussion has not been one-sided, it mentioned all the same facts that other reputable channels and papers gave. Though, if you still think the CDU is as right wing as the AfD in Germany, it's quite obvious how much you like to read rainbow-press and other sources of incitement of the people.
You said you really liked the "counterpunch.org"-link, and that says a lot about your attraction to news on Bildzeitung-level (german rainbow-press).
Btw, I wholeheartedly hate the CDU, and I did not vote them, not that you get me wrong, but you seem to lack a greater breadth of understanding, regarding how to value news, and how to differ important, meaningful information and facts from pure propaganda and polemic nonsense
(I quote counterpuch "one guy was nearly strangled to death", which could mean about anything, and clearly shows the what kind of news-site that is. No serious press would spread such vague nonsense to get tha Ahh's and Ohh's of the readers, and no intelligent person would take this site as a source for serious information)
Maybe you want to try reading the "Die Zeit" , "Die Welt" "The Guardian" or maybe the "New York Times", instead of counterpunch, RTL and/or whatever else polemic nonsense.
May I ask you what your political preference is, and if you are old enough to vote already, and where did your parents/grandparents come from?
