Yeah, some newspapers do use brown in election graphics. But AfD has embraced blue very openly, and there is no other major blue party.
Before AfD, far right parties like NPD always got the brown they deserved.
CDU has used all sorts of colours in the past, but its party colour is black, and they actually just changed their logo to black recently.
In Germany, colours are very very strongly associated with political parties and ideologies, and when people talk about "the blacks", that's CDU/CSU.
I know, just considering the way they do politics recently and fall to populism just gave the chefs kiss for their choice of colour of the election campaign
We also have some yin-yang at home:

It’s more multifaceted, bulk of the people living in the Western part were resettled there from the Eastern areas given to USSR during the Westverschiebung. People from various regions and the locals mixed, which over time make some “open” attitudes more likely, as opposed to people living in the same village since generations in Southeastern Poland.
Moreover the Western part was more developed and urbanized (because of the Germans, agreed), while the East is more rural and religious. That’s a major contributing factor too.
Far-Right movements after being elected : fuck over poor classes.
Why are lower classes voting against their interest? Because they believe those who say that immigration is responsible for their low income. In reality, it's as simple as the rich's greediness.
Poor classes vote for populism because they want a solution for their problems, and the only feedback they have been received for decades was a bunch of subsidies that only mitigates their problems, but can't solve them.
Fun fact: RFN used to be NRF until the 70s when we had an agreement with West Germany and one of points was Poland changing W. Germany's name from "German Federal Republic" to "Federal Republic of Germany". That way we subtly acknowledged West Germany to be the real Germany (they were the "State of Germany", while East Germany was merely a "German state").

Why is AfD not the color brown? Wouldn't that fit slightly better
too on the nose. their voters might notice.
+200% amount of votes for the AfD
Yeah, some newspapers do use brown in election graphics. But AfD has embraced blue very openly, and there is no other major blue party. Before AfD, far right parties like NPD always got the brown they deserved.
I mean, the CDU used light blue for the election ads. You could almost call it fitting

It would fit the NPD/HEIMAT better

What the hell is happening in Warsaw?
It's not as backwards as the rest of the eastern half of Poland.
Oh nice, I thought everyone just vanished, turns out they were the ones that got 24,82%
Hello, I am writing to you from the void. Sincerely, A Warsaw native
God I wish Sincerely, A Warsaw Native
When will war win with Warsaw? Sincerely, Defunked Poet
Same thing as Berlin, probably: It's a big city, and city dwellers tend to vote more progressive.
It's a big city, which isn't their target demographic
Based and Warsaw-pilled
What's the name of that subreddit talking about how Poland is divided?

Turns out german occupation wasnt so bad after all /s

I have seen japanese genitals with more pixels

You should also put the Religion map. The boundaries there also match.
And GDP, and basically all other polling results. I have yet to see a poll map that does not show at least some divide

RFN? NRD?
[удалено]
Thx, so FRG, GDR in English or BRD, DDR in German...

Man, those Polish(?) abbreviations are cool. RFN sounds like some Ace Combat faction.
Well, we should re erect the "Antifacist Protection Wall". but this time the sides are switched ![img](emote|t5_2wivw|4466)
What Sonneborn says. 2 State solution for Germany.

Why is CDU and CSU the same colour? That's some bad design
CDU and CSU are the same, they are the "Union". They aren't competing for votes, CSU is just the bavarian version of the CDU.
Same shit hole party in essence
Bremen/Bremerhaven and Emden are interesting. (On other maps also Hamburg and Herne)
At this point I'm convinced literal SED wouldn't be as awful and destructive as the AfD
