In just over eight months, Berlin will hold its 20th state election since 1946. While its well known East West divide in voting behaviour is often attributed to the city’s former split into capitalist and socialist halves, these differences existed even before the city’s division. A thread. 🧵

Is meritocratic ideology an "opium of the masses" of sorts that tames redistributive demands? Not for lower income strata. The myriad mechanisms through which the rich exert disproportionate influence are probably better explanations of why we do not observe higher redistribution. Check it out!😊👇
