    As long as it is a political party it is entitled to double digit millions every year in state party financing.

    If it is forbidden, it cannot be refounded with the same people and ideology and their wealth is seized.

    It ia not comparable to “terrorist” organizations, that dont need to abide by some rules of the dominant order in order to be active.

    The democratic system should not actively finance and aid those who want to destroy it.

    Finally the ideology is legitimised every time it can be voted for legally, as it shows the ideology to be considered part of the acceptable political plurality
