Germany’s domestic spy agency is monitoring anti-lockdown protesters, claiming they are potentially involved in a plot to subvert the country.
According to a Reuters report, the BfV spy agency is concerned that the demonstrations are being used as a cover for far-right extremists and people who believe in “conspiracy theories” about COVID-19 to incite violence.
“Authorities fear that far-right extremists and conspiracy theorists who either deny the existence of Covid or downplay its threat to public health are exploiting lockdown frustrations to stir anger against politicians and state institutions five months before a general election,” states the report.
While the government asserts that the movement has been radicalized, the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party characterized the surveillance as government overreach.
“Organisers of demonstrations which are mainly led by protagonists of the Querdenker movement have an agenda that goes beyond protesting against the state’s measures against the coronavirus,” said a BfV spokesperson.
Earlier this month, a judge in Weimar, Germany who ruled that two schools should be prevented from enforcing face mask mandates was subjected to a police raid of his home and had his cellphone confiscated.
As we highlighted earlier this year, German authorities revealed that they would be incarcerating COVID rulebreakers in detainment camps usually reserved for refugees.
AfD MP Joana Cotar reacted to the plan by accusing authorities of “reading too much Orwell.” The state asserts it has the right to detain those who break quarantine under the Disease Protection Act.
German authorities appear to be far more worried about the threat posted by right-wingers, despite the fact that the country has a strong and notoriously vicious Antifa presence, members of which routinely engage in violent political attacks

The “weeds” have infiltrated everything.
So the Germans have re-imagined the Gestapo.

Unfortunately, Germany isn't the ONLY country invoking the spirit of Goebbels to spread the 'bravo sierra'. Here in Alberta, I am expecting the Minister of Hell, er, Health, to start shutting down even MORE churches, all to 'stop the spread. This, from a party calling itself 'United Conservative'. (More like 'Divided CON-servative', yes, especially the CON.)
See France. This chaos is truly Global.
Angela Merkle learn her trade in East Germany
Look at what Bonney Henry has pulled next door here in BC.
Yep, the surveillance state is going global. Did you know our FBI shares the info it gathers on gun purchasers with Interpol?
Hey! Just like our US Postal Service!
Angela Merkle graduated from the University of Karx Marx with a close friend of mine..
They renamed it the the University of Leipzig in 1991.
NOTHING coming out of d'Ottawa, Montréal or the gubmint du Quebec surprises me. What DOES surprise me is that so-called 'conservatives' like Doug 'the Thug' Ford in ON and Jason 'Commie' Kenney in AB act just as bad as the lefties. I guess, just like the US, there really is only ONE party, the 'uniparty'. A separatist party for me, come next election! 'Commie' Kenney can KMA!
When I was in Germany in the early seventies, the subject of “Wiederholbarkeit” (repeatability)—as in, “can the Nazi era be repeated?—sometimes came up as a topic of discussion. At the time, a repeat of the Nazi era seemed ridiculous; now it doesn’t seem so.
So when Germany unification occurred, did the government chose to name the combined organization the Gestapo or the Stasi?
Ach so! Die guten alten Zeiten sind zuruck!
