leading members had attended a covert meeting at which a “masterplan” for mass deportations of foreigners and German passport holders was discussed, with a view to the party implementing the plans if it came to power.
Weidel called the exposé “scandalous” and said it had misrepresented her party, which only wanted to use the law to repatriate people who had no right to remain in Germany.
What’s the fundamental difference between “mass deportation of foreigners” and “repatriation of people who the AfD denies the right to remain in Germany”?
The AfD and their supporters want to get rid of everyone who “doesn’t fit” into Germany according to their views. Legal status and German citizenship don’t matter to them at all, nor does it matter to them what happens to the deported afterwards. And everyone knows that’s what they mean.
But they can’t openly say it because that’s unconstitutional. So they use vague language about people “who have no right to be in Germany”. That way, their supporters know exactly what type of people they mean, but if an inquiry is started, they can pretend they were only talking about illegal immigrants.
Check twice before you use the term Aryan. The ‘real’ Aryans were not those blue-eyed, blond-haired viking type ‘old’ germans. The Aryan type originally was used for central asian people plus … PLUS … the 1st scripts bout those were from indish vedes. So most not only german pre and post WW2 Aryans are simply barbARYANs. ;-P
She’s a walking contradiction. She’s a lesbian, lives together with her partner from Sri Lanka, adopted two sons, employed a Syrian refugee as a cleaning lady…but is a leading figure in a far-right party that is against all of those things.
Simply not true, historically. Switzerland has long been a cultural and ethnic crossroads between France, Italy, and Germany, which is why their official languages are French, Italian, German, and Romansh (a regional language).
This lie was, however, commonly repeated by the Nazis to try and justify an invasion on nationalist grounds.
Never said you were, but there are quite a few of their propaganda efforts that simply became accepted “truth.” Calling blonde haired and blue eyed people Aryan or German, for example, even though we have plenty of evidence those traits exist in non-Germanic peoples.
Maybe this campaign shows all german voters how ‘beautiful and fair’ a AfD on top of their nation will be. Brexit pro leaders in Great Britain left stage and get paid millions of dollars from (far) right parties, oligarchs and old aristocratic billionaires for their efforts in misleading the democratic societies.
There’s a KGB strategy from 90s iirc that shows a plan of push to divide the UK from Europe, then the US from Europe, then Germany from Europe, then California from the US. I’ve got it downloaded somewhere
You might be thinking of the 1997 book Foundations of Geopolitics by the Russian ultranationalist and neofascist Aleksandr Dugin.
There have been many reports over the years that it’s popular amongst those close to Putin - and there are definitely comparisons to be drawn between the book and actually occurring events.
A significant proportion of the AfD’s supporters are explicitly Putinist. In the 90s, Germany gave citizenship to hundreds of thousands of Russian immigrants who had German ancestry (being descended from Volga Germans who migrated to Russia during Catherine the Great’s reign and subsequent waves). Most of these new Germans didn’t even speak German, let alone have any familiarity with post-1989 German democratic society. Nowadays they get their news from Russian state sources and form a far-right anti-liberal voting bloc that’s solidly AfD.
I feel like every time I look back over my shoulder at Germany the AfD has achieved some new level of Mask Off
It’s like the institutional-racism-supporter version of shooting your load before the other one’s even finished getting their pants off, like bro you’re still in an official quarantine by literally all the other parties, like they’re not even considered for grand coalition.
They have to take it slowly and they somewhat know that. They have to slowly (depending on the context) expand the border of what’s sayable. Sadly the other parties in Germany mostly don’t work against that but (maybe just because their just plainly too stupid to see what’s happening) play in their cards legitimizing their shifting discourse🫨🫨🫨🤬
It’s because: 1- their racist shit doesn’t seem to be hurting their polling, and 2- the assumption is the other parties will work with them once election day comes, if they keep their 30%
Not only that, if there is one country that is most essential to the EU and where the EU is most essential to its success, it’s got to be Germany. The whole idea of Gexit makes no sense and is entirely carried by fee-fees.
Only if you assume the plan is meant to benefit the country. If you assume that they want to profit from the suffering it makes more sense. Irrational, cult-like mindsets are easier to peddle when people are miserable.
I think they are definitely malicious, but I don’t think they are capable of such cunning planning. They yearn for the Germany of the 50s and 60s and that means, among other things, no EU.
I don’t think they yearn for any time that actually existed in the past. They yearn for a simpler world, one where people all have the same skin colour, sexual orientation, religion, life goals,… and where good things happen to people like them and bad things happen to people who are different.
They don’t want it to work well. The worse the situation is for the average citizen the easier they are to be influenced by propaganda as most people tend to look for a strong leader in times of need.
A previous spokesman of the AfD is on record saying that “the worse the situation for Germany the better it is for the AfD”…
