WATCH: German Far-Left Chant Antifa Slogans as They Enter Parliament
Breitbart ^ | 02/25/2025 | Kurt Zindulka

Posted on 02/25/2025 10:54:46 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Riding high off a surprisingly strong result in Germany’s federal elections on Sunday, members of the far-left Die Linke party chanted Antifa slogans as they entered the Bundestag parliament in Berlin on Tuesday.

After facing the prospect of near-complete political irrelevance just several weeks ago, Die Linke (The Left) saw a late surge in the federal election campaign that netted the party around 8.8 per cent of the vote, over double where the radical party was polling just a couple months ago.

Apparently emboldened by their strong showing, MPs gathered with Left leaders Jan van Aken and Ines Schwerdtner and former chancellor candidate Heidi Reichinnek for a group Bundestag photo in which they chanted the Antifa slogan “alerta, alerta, antifascista!”

The phrase — “attention, attention, anti-fascists” — originated in 1920s Italy among leftist opponents of the Mussolini regime before being picked up in the Weimar Republic by the German leftist-extremist Antifascist Action group, the predecessor of the modern Antifa movement. The phrase is often heard at Antifa rallies worldwide to this day.

Die Linke used to be the Socialist Unity Party (SED), East Germany's ruling party. Here is their theme song:

Das Lied der Partei (the song of the party)--Ernst Busch with the Berlin Opera Company (1950)

"The Party is always right, and comrades, that always shall be."

"Inspired by Lenin, welded by Stalin, the Party, the Party, the Party!"

They should not be permitted to demonstrate within the parliament building, nor have their own flags. Fist thrusts in the air are openly violent threats. The term “antifascist” is a call to violence meaning “if you oppose us we will attack you.” Those flags and symbols are simply the swastikas of the left.

Immediate arrest amd rigorous imprisonment of all Communists should be absolutely mandatory. A civilized society simply cannot tolerate the enemy kf al rights and freedoms.

1. Flag high, ranks closed,
The S.A. marches with silent solid steps.
Comrades shot by the Red Front and reaction
March in spirit with us in our ranks.

2. The street free for the brown battalions,
The street free for the Storm Troopers.
Millions, full of hope, look up at the swastika;
The day breaks for freedom and for bread.

3. For the last time the call will now be blown;
For the struggle now we all stand ready.
Soon will fly Hitler-flags over every street;
Slavery will last only a short time longer

4. Flag high, ranks closed,
The S.A. marches with silent solid steps.
Comrades shot by the Red Front and reaction
March in spirit with us in our ranks.

Remember, Antifa is a spin off of the German Red Army Faction from the ‘70s.
They too called everyone a “fascist” who didn’t agree with their militant agenda.
Both are highly dangerous.

Das Marschlied von Horst Wessel (the Horst Wessel marching song)

This Nazi anthem, attributed to a Nazi activist named Horst Wessel, was apparently an old Communist or Socialist song with some of the words changed around.
