Re: “A big victory for the right in Germany.”

I don't understand why AfD gets a “Right” wing label.

I do understand that nationalism and anti-immigrant policies are traditionally assigned to the Right.

On the other hand, most of AfD’s voters grew up in Communist East Germany (Yes, I know, Merkel did too, but only because her Lutheran Minister father moved the family there).

To my eye, it seems like “National Socialist” would be a more accurate label for the AfD.

Please point out the AfD's socialist positions.
