Ironically, banning the AfD is what Hitler would have done.
Dems would do it here in a moment.
They tried to do it by engaging in lawfare against Trump. That was no different than what the EU and France did against Marine Le Pen.
Germany slipping back into a sort of totalitarianism.
This time it’s not military autocracy, communism (almost happened) or Nazism. It’s this new weird system I don’t even know what to call:
Western radical Liberal/Deep state/mass media/ socialistic/ repressively WOKE/ open border/internationalism…
can we just call it New Marxism?
They are prepared to defend mass migration at any cost.
They already tried. They named their operation Crossfire Hurricane.
You just call something or someone “extremist” and Bomm!they suddenly don’t have any rights.
Say, what exactly is the definition of “extremist”? Is wanting to cut off the genitals of children “extremist?” How about marrying 10-year-olds? Marxism? What about banning political parties or candidates which or who have a lot of popular support? Is that “extremist”?
Full sanctions vs Germany if they do this. Trump has to be ready to bring the hammer down on these tyrants.
Another country down. That should be grounds to kick them out of NATO, since they are no longer a democracy.
It’s ‘democracy’, as long as we’re winning.
Germany being Germany - yet another reason we need to wash our hands of Europe.
The migrant ganga are to be the democRAT's storm troopers, along with ANTIFA and BLM.
Hmmmm….. a 21st Century ‘ENABLING ACT’. What could possibly go wrong.
Still this false assertion abounds, that National Socialist German Workers Party was somehow a “right-wing” party. In truth, it was always only slightly to the “right” of International Socialism, the kind of Communism represented by the Soviet Union.
There was and still is a lot of internecine competition between various flavors of socialism, but they are all on the same wavelength - a command-and-control economy, with a militaristic hierarchy structure of government, not subject to elections of popular opinion.
The AfD is NOT a “neoNazi” organization, as they still maintain the position of elective politics, and representation on the national level of a set of sound fiscal and moral beliefs.
How very fascist of them.
Don’t like your political opponents? Just ban them.
Easy peasy.

You knew this was the next step. Now that its the most popular party in the country, the corrupt Establishment can’t allow it to exist. It might win elections! So in the name of democracy it must be banned - because nothing says “Democracy” like censoring, banning and imprisoning your political opponents.
There are 4 curious things playing out:
1. The entire report is reportedly under lock-and-key (meaning it’s confidential and limited to who can read it). As of yesterday...the Interior Minister (who is leaving her job in 2 days)...admitted she had not read it. The new guy...has yet to read it.
If they were to vote or carry out the ban...they’d have to allow all members to read the report.
If you ask me...there’s likely a executive summary of 20 pages, but the full report is a minimum of 200 pages. I doubt that any of the Bundestag members want to volunteer to read the whole thing.
2. A discussion has started up...within the police, federal employees, and military....if you are a AfD member, you may have to be let go. Considering 25-percent are now polling as supporting AfD...there’s to be problems if you suddenly dismiss 300,000 fed employees.
3. The Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, who wrote the report...seems to have a lot of information. It begs the question, did they have a secret-agent or two infiltrate AfD? If so...it would sound a lot like the Bavarian Secret Police of 1919 who hired Hitler to infiltrate the Nazi Party as a secret agent for them.
It would be silly to suggest this, but it begs the question....where did they get their data/info...for the report?
4. AfD says they will take this to court....so judges will drag this out and any banning action...probably can’t take place for at least six months. But the judges will ask...where did you get the information/data?
Straight from the horse’s mouth:
“According to the idea of the NSDAP [Nazi party], we are the German left. Nothing is more hateful to us than the right-wing national ownership block.” - Josef Goebbels
The Left: “We love Democracy and must protect it by refusing to permit citizens to vote for our opponents! We deserve freedom from opposition!”
