Liberal parties have a serious strategic problem: '''By achieving their objectives, they hollow out themselves - faster than any other party.''' Genuine liberalism is characterized by the struggle for personal liberties and civil rights. These freedoms are usually won once and then exist for a long time without further action. Fighting for additional freedoms or expanding existing freedoms is becoming increasingly difficult to practically impossible. As a consequence, these parties are shrinking and tend to take up substitute objectives. Constitutional liberal objectives keep flaring up, but they only have a niche existence next to economic liberalism. The economy is strongly patriarchal (male-dominated), so that feminists and left-wing identities (themes of sex and gender, diversity, rights for minorities, wokeness) have increasingly been taken up by the Greens and the Left. | Liberal parties have a serious strategic problem: '''By achieving their objectives, they hollow out themselves - faster than any other party.'''

This disregard and the economically liberal focus repeatedly brings the liberals close to the 5% hurdle and makes them vulnerable to lobbying and ''mercenarism''. Sometimes one favors the other. -- Against large donations the industry and economy expect a radical market economy policy or a policy that is exactly tailored to the respective donor. In part, this can have a reactionary, an anti-progressive and a paradoxical effect: new technologies are prevented in order to protect existing business models and prevent the dynamics of a free market. In this way, anti-liberal policies is done by the liberals themselves. -- Free thinking and acting of the liberals [https:// | This disregard and the economically liberal focus repeatedly brings the liberals close to the 5% hurdle and makes them vulnerable to lobbying and ''mercenarism''.
