Trump administration officials have condemned the move by Germany’s domestic intelligence agency to designate the far-right AfD party an extremist group, setting off a diplomatic row between the two NATO allies.

The USA needs to fuck off
Fash support fash.
trump never met a nazi he didn’t like.
Not just Trump.
The US government has never had a problem with nazis. They are very right-wing country and what they hate most is anything left, especially communism. Also the fascists prefered system is corporatism. A wet dream for the ultra-capitalist US. They have a lot in common.And just look at their track record:
They intervened in WW2 purely out of self-interest.
Not to fight the nazis or liberate us.There was plenty of fascist sentiment in the US at that time. The US helped 1000’s of the worst nazis escape in WW2 trough the so-called ratlines and left most of the leaders and important collaborators in Europe unbothered. General Patton “we fight the wrong enemy” was put in charge of denazification of which he unsurprisingly said he didn’t see the purpose. Also they organised fascist ‘stay behind’ armies in many countries, e.g. Project Aerodynamic. And made nazis like Heusinger chairman of the NATO Military Committee, or Hans Speidel Commander in Chief of the Allied Forces of Central Europe.
Later the US also saw nothing wrong with incorporating 100% fascist regimes like Spain, Portugal or Greece in NATO, in fact they were good friends and heavily involved in keeping them in power. Dissent in those countries was crushed by American tanks and guns. in November 1973, students spontaneously occupied Greece’s most prestigious university, the Athens Polytechnic. On the walls they mostly wrote 2 slogans: OUT USA and OUT NATO. That’s how important they were for the junta.
And don’t get me started on South America. Plenty of fascist regimes put in power there by the US. Supporting them militarily, training death squads and more , if not actually fighting for them covertly.

I could go on.>
Well, no surprise there.
Looking at the broken state of the USA it’s totally in character to comment the dumbest possible response
Nazis complaining about a real government calling Nazis, well, Nazis.
Would be interesting if Germany will do the same mistakes like America.
Looking at the last decades: yes they will do!
But I don’t hope so.
Remember when Taliban endorsed Trump?
People have started not to care who or what the US criticise. Its actually more of s good thing, if the US does not like something…
Trump needs them for his global fascist revolution (jk there’s no way he’s thinking that far ahead).
Note to the world, if Trump or his cronies condemn you for something, you’re doing the right thing.
THEY ARE! WTF!
Why am I yelling to people who already know?
And sponsored by Nike? Not adidas?
Zionazis criticizing Zionazis for labeling Zionazis as Nazis.
We live in the most absurd timeline.
US citizens right now:
Oh, we’re well aware. If you look at leftists specifically, we’ve known since at least the Vietnam War.
Who’s well aware?
All the Dems and libs complaining now were perfectly fine with imperialistic wars, children in cages and racism.
As long as it didn’t inconvenience them personally in their bubble of pretend democracy.
That would imply a thought goes through their head.
The U.S. government does not speak for the majority of its citizens. It speaks for one man and his handlers.
That’s not how democracy works. yoie goverment is indeed a representative of the majority.
More people should have realised that voting is not a right. It is a commitment and a responsibility
You are right in that’s not how democracy works. Unfortunately, due to gerrymandering and Citizens United, it’s how the U.S.’s bastardized version of it “works.” Thanks to gerrymandering in my state (which is a test bed for much of the nonsense we’re now seeing at the federal level), I have absolutely no voice in our state legislature, which has recently decided to neuter the other two (actually democratically elected) branches of government here.
So it’s game over?
The government is not a representative of the majority, he is elected by a majority to be a representative of the whole. That’s how democracy works.
You are right - this is what i meant.
We no longer have one. Our elected leader is gone rogue.
Besides, our current leader has never received the majority of the popular vote, and our voting turnout has never been as much as half the populace. In my lifetime, no president has ever received so much as 60% of the popular vote.
The theory is good, but any idea that any President is representative of what the US people want is sunny not true, verging on impossible.
- the voters
- the people accepting and just watching the shut show. Well maybe peacefully Protest… No Riots yet…
100% American Accept this
Fascists defends fascists? What a surprise…
