German Court Allows Intelligence Monitoring of Conservative AfD Party Over ‘Threat to Democracy,’ Could Ban It Altogether

A court in Germany has approved the intelligence monitoring of the Alternative for Germany (AFD) political party on the grounds that it poses a “threat to democracy.”

As the party’s popularity continues to rise as Germans rise up against the globalist regime that rules them, particulary over the issue of mass immigration, the government has now found an excuse to monitor them by classifying them as an extremist organization.

Meanwhile, Chancellor Olaf Scholz celebrated the ruling, saying it proves that Germany has a “resilient democracy” and that the state protects it “against threats from within.”

There is that "our democracy"™ theme again....

[MRadtke]

I see. “resilient democracy” = dictatorship.

[Mount Athos]

maybe the German court is the real threat to Democracy, if it would like to ban a party that a huge percentage of the country would like to vote for?

[Bob434]

The world sure is going all out on tyranny these days

[George J. Jetso]

Anybody that is dissatisfied with their rulers and dictators is a threat to democracy.

[Alas Babylon!]

Nothing says “Democracy” like banning your opposition party.

[Sicon]

Sounds a lot like “Dangerous for our democracy…” Hmmm, where have I heard that before?

Extremely dangerous for our democracy

"Our democracy" = If you won't vote the way we want you too, we won't let you vote.

The irony in Germany is that they blame the German people for voting in the Nazis when in fact Hitler would never have become chancellor without the assistance of established players in the German political elite like Franz von Pappen, Schleicher and Hindenburg.

It's the latest elite that broke German law to allow "asylum seekers" into the country and that constantly forms new governing coalitions among the top parties to strangle any genuine reform in the interests of German workers and any punishment for criminal migrants who are raping and terrorizing the native population.

Sieg Heil!

Adolf would be proud of you Olaf! You are certainly following in his footsteps!

“Lesseee...lesseee.. how do I prove that Germany is a democracy?

“Oh! I know! I’ll ban a political party and refuse to let people vote for it!

“That will show I am ALL IN on Democracy!”

"We have to pass the bill in order to find out what's in it".

More wisdom from our liberal friends. Liberal logic is more twisted than a pretzel.

Germany was either going to go Nazi or Communist.

[pierrem15]

An authoritarian conservative government was also a possibility as in Austria. But they would have needed to change the constitution and needed the army to suppress the Communists as had been done after WWI. There probably still would have been another war, as the Weimar government had already been secretly testing subs with Sweden, aircraft in Holland, and armored warfare with the Soviets.

yes... “their democracy”... not yours.
