It for sure is not. Germany is a social democracy. One of the most advanced in Europe.
Therefore Germany is heavily left leaning.
I don’t know what you would call the left at this point… Communism?
But the population and therefore our government which get voted from them is more conservative. And that’s not even calculating the swing to the right. And the established far right networks our executive like police, military and intelligent services doesn’t give a picture of a left leaning country. Germany had a good foundation, I give you that, but we have now decades of conservative governments who slowly undermined it.
So maybe left leaning if you compare it to an absolute monarchy, but if you differentiate and look closer, Germany is far from an left leaning country.

Not quite sure, are we talking about Germany now? Because SPD and Grüne is definitely not konservative. And the AfD, considering the sei g to the right, is actually more left leaning than the CDU and FDP considering the economical standpoints.

If we are still talking about Germany, Germany has reduced the Police and the Military over the last decades further and further. We currently have real issues now. No wonder that overworking policemen are leaning further to the right, to parties that would eventually enlarge the policeforce.

We should not forget that the SPD and CDU were once both considered the conservative parties. And most of the foundations you mention were build under their lead. It’s been a recent development that CDU and SPD became rather left leaning in their appearance, but simultaneously messing up the systems.
So maybe left leaning if you compare it to an absolute monarchy, but if you differentiate and look closer, Germany is far from an left leaning country.
And here we drastically disagree. Germany is a heavily left leaning European country. And by European standard this also means globally.
At least 20% wants to vote fascist the next election and another 27% like to vote for the right leaning conservative party CDU/CSU. Germany is definitely not left leaning.
