It’s frightening enough to see full-blown totalitarianism return in Germany, but worse is knowing that it’s happening across the West, including in America.
Germany’s Bundestag police commissioner, Uli Grötsch, is trying his best to rid his police force of members of the conservative Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. Grötsch, himself a member of the left-leaning Social Democratic Party (SPD), is tasked with overseeing police misconduct, but instead is using his position specifically to target supporters of the AfD to disqualify them from serving in law enforcement.
Speaking to the Rheinische Post, Grötsch flatly stated: “AfD membership and work as a police officer are not compatible,” and noted that the BfV, Germany’s intelligence agency, has labeled the AfD as a “right-wing extremist” party. This is much the same thing as the Obama-Biden FBI having branded certain Catholics and parents who dared question school boards as “domestic extremists” and put them on potential “domestic terror group” watchlists.
The AfD is facing mounting lawfare across Germany, lawfare designed to force its members out of civil service roles and into irrelevance. “Democratic” and socialist parties everywhere, including the United States, are ramping up their efforts to take permanent control of their nations by silencing dissent and attempting to ban political opposition. Incredibly, preposterously, they are doing this under the guise of protecting democracy. You see, protecting our democracy is such a noble goal that any resistance simply cannot be tolerated. Sieg heil!
My God, it’s happening again! The unthinkable is occurring today in Germany. Government authorities are trying to ban political opposition. And they may well succeed. Again.
Note to the people of Germany (and England, France, Canada, Sweden, et. al.): Those who tell you that decency and inclusiveness demand that unfettered immigration be allowed to continue in perpetuity

Watch what happens in Europe. The left is trying to do the same thing here, but is a few steps behind.

The expected devolution/slippery slope of ALL “hate speech” laws, which are government controlled speech laws, and WILL always see that power extended to control to whatever speech those in power want to use it call “illegal”.

It’s Germany..who cares
The national socialists in Germany are at it again!
As free citizens we believe in direct democracy, the separation of powers, the rule of law, social market economics, subsidiarity, federalism, family values, and German cultural heritage, as democracy and freedom are vested in our cultural values and historical tradition. The recollection of the two revolutions of 1848 and 1989 drive our civil protest and the determination to complete our national unity in freedom, and create a Europe of sovereign and democratic nation states, united in peace, self-determination and good-neighborliness.JFTR, AfD are not what we call “conservative”.
— AfD party platform, preamble
Minimum wages and the social market economy are closely connected. Minimum wages adjust the remunerative position of low-income workers as weak market players with respect to the interests of employers as strong market players. They also safeguard low-income workers against wage pressure caused by recent mass-immigration. Minimum wages enable an existence above the poverty line, and at least guarantee a humble pension, which otherwise would have to be paid for by society in the form of state support. Minimum wages thus prevent the privatization of profits while costs are socialized. It is for this reason that the AfD supports the retention of minimum wages.
