    Weimar was a small civil war between soldiers who returned from WW1. That’s why both the left and the right had fighters. Where should the fighters who shoot the bullets come from now?

    The fascists came to power because the elite feared that the communists could win. Otherwise, despite massive manipulation, the fascists never got an absolute majority.

    There are many issues that other parties simply ignore. There would be far less voteres for the AfD if the other parties would listen. The AfD started with the demand that the rules about euro stability shouldn’t be ignored. That’s not a fascist position.

      The other parties are not taking up AfDs made up causes because they are made up.

      For example:

      A sack of potatoes falls.

      AfD: Foreigners are causing the sacks to fall! We must gas them! And the jews!

      Other parties: This is so stupid it doesn’t even warrant a response.

      General public: but the foreigners!!111!1!!!11 and the potatoes!!1! I am outraged!!!111!!!

        I don’t think that you make a good point if you yourself make up your point. Please quote the AfD to avoid all doubt.

              But it isn’t false. They are literal nazis and say literal nazi things.

              Several offices for the protection of the constitution of the German Länder (they are a kind of anti-extremist intelligence services, in case you don’t know) have found them to be “assuredly right-wing-extremists”, which is the worst possible classification the law recognises.

              Again. Literal, actual, nazis.

                Yes. That’s why you should quote what they literally say. It’s not a quote if you write what you think they say.

                    Thanks, I would have looked differently at your comment if you had directly added that source.

                    it’s very likley

                    Then it is still not a quote.

                    In general, if somebody can proof something easily but does not, then I assume that it is wrong. If others think like me, you create the opposite message of what you want.
