Wondering what reasons may anyone have to down vote this

Merkel is pretty unpopular among the German left. There’s a lot of things she did wrong, but the big one is that she was a big reason for why Germany was dependent on Russian Gas for heating and electricity until the next government cut off the pipelines after they invaded the Ukraine.

Of course, there are also a lot of things she did right and she was probably a major factor in keeping Germany stable during the 16 years in which she was leading the country, but these kind of memes still seem a bit ignorant about her.
