Here is further proof the education system is failing, in Europe too...
Annalena Baerbock Proposes a Solution to the Energy Crisis
Posted on July 19, 2022 by Baron Bodissey
The German politician Annalena Baerbock is a member of the political party Alliance 90/The Greens, and currently serves as Minister for Foreign Affairs in the “traffic light”* coalition government. The following video highlights Ms. Baerbock’s considerable intellectual skills as she explains the physics of the electrical grid to a less-gifted audience.
Many thanks to Hellequin GB for the translation. The translator includes this exegesis of Ms. Baerbock’s profundities:
This clip was only 30-odd seconds, but those were longest seconds in my life.
Annalena Baerbock is definitely the prime living example of a desolate education system in Germany. She supposedly attended the University of Hamburg and the London School of Economics and Political Science — two places that should be avoided like a pest house if Annalena is a product thereof. I have met many uneducated people in my life, especially from universities, but this woman surpasses them all by an extremely wide margin. And such a person has become foreign minister in Germany, which only shows how low Germany has sunk. I don’t believe that even the Mariana Trench is sufficient in depth for that kind of stupidity.
What she’s saying is that as an example, if you turn your freezer down by 2°, you save power in the overall electrical grid, and that power can then be used at a later stage. She claims that through this action, large power-consumers become power-suppliers. And that is utter rubbish.
The problem I have with translating her ramblings is that she doesn’t even speak a proper and cohesive German. A bloody Afghan speaks a better and more cohesive German, for that matter. Following her train of thought is extremely painful, but I cannot, while translating it, make her sound better for the subtitles, because that would defy the whole purpose in holding up the mirror for others to see.
Thanks also to Vlad Tepes and RAIR Foundation for the subtitling:

Video transcript:
| 00:00 | | And we have, and this is new; this is also interesting for startups and companies | | 00:05 | | such as data centers, large supermarkets, which then just enter the market as energy producers. | | 00:10 | | And if a cooling system, for example, at a large producer, | | 00:14 | | from -22°C to 20°C in the future, | | 00:18 | | cools down to -20°C, the chicken is then still cold, | | 00:22 | | but we can then use the base load of the network, and that was my point, | | 00:25 | | to stabilize the network, in which the different actors balance each other out. | | 00:30 | | In short, yes the network will be in the future, you roll your eyes, | | 00:34 | | but that’s how it is. In the future the network will also play a role in storage.
