Following the dissolution of Germany’s Ampel coalition, social media is awash with misinformation, manipulated images, and exaggerated claims. Amidst humorous memes, serious conspiracy theories have emerged, particularly around newly appointed Finance Minister Jörg Kukies. Allegations link him to a pre-planned role at the World Economic Forum, although official announcements confirm his appointment just a day prior. Experts warn that significant political events often fuel conspiracy theories, which thrive on exaggerated claims of secretive power dynamics and manipulation. Misconceptions about Kukies’ banking background further stoke distrust, highlighting the impact of misinformation in the digital age.
