    Ah yes, Germany is in those early stages where the nazis deny being nazis. Just look to the US for a glimpse of the future. Next step will be to try to take the meaning out of the word, then they’ll slip nazi rhetoric into their propaganda in small deniable ways, and eventually they just drop the facade and start saying “What’s wrong with being a nazi?”

      We are way past that. Björn Höcke, AfD führer-in-spe, went to court to test what he could say. He got away with a wrist slap.

      Nazi is already a term for “i dislike your opinion”. Also, the AfD is using a lot of NS rrethoric.Björn Höcke is going to court for like the fifth time because he used NS speech.
