*Pulls up soapbox*
A little bit of background might be in order:
AfD is the strongest party in all of the former GDR states, including SA where yesterdays’ elections were held. They stand for unbridled, neoliberal capitalism, garnished with lots of anti-immigration rhetoric. Their boss worked for Goldman-Sachs and that’s saying it all, really.
SA - one state out of 16 - has 2.1 million inhabitants, out of Germany’s 83.5 million. They do have an outsized influence on the 2nd chamber of parliament, though. As of now, it looks like they will form a coalition government and rule SA.
In the whole of Germany, AfD currently polls at 27-28%; runner-up is the conservative CDU which is currently leading the federal government, at 20-21%. AfD polls especially high in places where the previous, notorious right-wing party, NPD, did; and before them, the NSDAP. They poll especially high among blue-collar workers, first-time (young) voters and previous non-voters.
In the EU parliament, AfD has 15 of ESN’s 27 seats. Judging from the seating in the parliament, and from who wants to form a coalition with the AfD, it becomes clear that they are significantly farther right-wing than the likes of Orbán, Le Pen, Fico, Meloni, Salvini or any of the EU-wide known names, really.
I recommend this free 2024 study to assess the immense danger democracy in Germany is facing. Trans people, women, feminists, Jews, immigrants, social Darwinism - far-right wing voters poll approximately 1.5-3x as high in “hate” values than right-wing voters.
The long and short is: Don’t come to Germany, especially not Eastern Germany, and especially not if you don’t have lily-white skin. This is my honest, sober advice for you.
I swear to God you people are so fucking stupid. Lookup what words mean. You are destroying EVERYTHING WITH YOUR STUPIDITY
WE HAVE TOLERATED THE STUPID TOO MUCH. STUPID PEOPLE NEED TO BE SHOUTED DOWN AND TREATED APPROPRIATELY.
NAZIS NEED TO NOT EXIST. WE LET THEM GO BEFORE AND LOOK WHAT THEY DID.
PEDOPHILIC, AUTHORITARIAN FACSISTS ARE INFECTING EVERYWHERE AND WE ALL KNOWTHE FEW BEHIND IT. WE ALL KNOW WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN TO THEM. WE ALL KNOW WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN TO PEDOPHILIC TRAITORS.
Ah right. Trump had a “Radical” idea to build a wall to keep people out. GDR built a wall to KEEP PEOPLE IN, so they can’t escape. Totally not radical idea. Of corse it was in the name of “enlightened” socialism.
*Pulls up soapbox* A little bit of background might be in order:
Misread it initially as Sturmabteilung, not Saxony-Anhalt. In any case, it’s now a hostile state.
The correct abbreviation would be ST, not SA, but considering the AfD is now close to an absolute majority the latter fits better.
Who could’ve predicted that people who spent half a century under radical socialism, will be right wing and pro capitalism
They didn’t live under “radical socialism”
