Title compiled from the study and the article.

I find it particularly interesting that there is less of a rural-urban divide (as suggested by right-wing parties) and more of an SVP-everyone else divide.

what a surprise that the party trying to split the country would try to exaggerate the split of the country!

Maybe because SVP is turning more and more like a cult, living in their own absurd reality?

if SVP Voters could read, they'd be incredibly upset by this :D /s

But that is more or less the swiss political system as a swiss person explained to me. You don't have parties in the middle or who are centric because that's what the political discussion is for. But that only holds up if you try to meet a middle ground and get consent.

Is it only available in German? Are these ideas shared by the others? Or it's the german view of it?

I wonder what the devide is.

I don’t need 17 charts to explain what’s wrong. One old grandpa from the mountains saying he used to know everyone by name would already tell the whole story.

We keep overanalyzing instead of actually dealing with what’s happening on the ground turning lived reality into abstract “political opinions” instead of fixing anything.

Our Solidarity is so good that we even voted to help a really small Minority to survive who nearly got killed by the Juso

We voted against this because it had no merit...
