It looks as if the left has at least understood that they have to change something. There have been quite a few campaigns to attract attention so far.
Also, about 20% of the current members joined after Wagenknecht left. The new members are mainly young people who obviously don’t like Wagenknecht.
I think the pro-Ukraine wing in the party has become much stronger as a result, but they are holding back because they don’t want to have a fight during the election campaign.
I have always struggled with what I would vote if I were a German voter. I haven’t liked the SPD since they followed Blair down the drain and Lafontaine left, I couldn’t vote for die Linke knowing it was a safe haven for the Wagenknechts out there, and don’t get me started on the Greens.
So for the first time since I became aware of German politics, I’m eyeing an opening where I could possibly have voted in good conscience in a German election. So that gives me some hope out of all this madness.

Of course, I cannot vote anyway, so blah.
