Learning from history is about more than just lip service,” he added, in what appeared to be a reference to the Nazi dictatorship, which made race ideology, ostracism and the deportation of Jews, Roma and Sinti, gay people and many others the cornerstone of its politics. Scholz continued: “Democrats must stand together.”

    If he would be committed to more than lip service he would initiate the process to ban them

      process to ban them.

      What do you mean?

      Many Afd extremiss are arrested, like this one german official arrested and these ones

      Am not sure if you can ban a democratic elected party (even if it was mostly on Provincial level). There should be rules against anti-democratic parties, but I don’t know how that works. IIRC, it only happens in extreme cases. This should be considered one of them. But, it’s up to the legislature to do that, not a politician.

        Yes you can ban anti-democratic parties. But the process has to be started from the government or parliament. It’s already established that multiple subdivisions on federal states like Thuringia are Right-wing extremist, then this disgusting meeting, multiple disgusting statements, so I don’t know what else they will need before they start the process

            Both, they fear it will be politically advantageous for them. Like all Right-wing-loosers they love to play the victim card. And in 100 years, every kid in the history lessons will ask, why nobody tried to forbid them

              That’s it, what they forget is, the price for not trying to ban them is the end of our democracy. I also don’t think that our BVG would decide that the AfD is still democratic. Thousands of statements that are against our constitution, planing mass deportations, mostly right extremists, multiple regional partys are flagged as right wing extremists. I think at this point it’s pretty sure it’s not about if, but about when they will get banned(as long as someone starts the process)

    So what is the plan? How should it be done? Did they put in the work to come up with feasible ways of deporting lots of people? How specific and detailed are these plans?

      It was a strategic plan, conquering some area in Africa to then deport people there. First all refugees,then all people livingin Germany with a residency permit and finally all Germans who are deemed to not be of german blood or hold the wrong political opinion.

      The aim of the meeting was to organize funding to further this idea and to inroduce it in the political parties and society.

      When asked about the legality of deporting Germans,the speaker said to devise “tailored laws” for that.

      So it is not a specifically thought out plan, but to get people together and define the overal intent and organize towards it. Think of it like a kick-off meeting. Just that representatives from supposedely democratic parties, one of the far right and one that used to be conservative came together.

      It is expression of acute risk of a replay of the 1920s where the “conservatives” helped the fascists into power.

        precisely the drivel that nazis fancy of course. their mental facilities are too poor to really think it through so they first get in power and then legally force the not incapable part of the population to figure it out.
