    The most nazi thing in the links you provided were the government banning certain slogans.

    What is your definition of nazi as that will probably explain a few things.

    You had use of a banned slogan. A nazi accusation, party memeber leaving due to claims of right wing infiltration.

    None of that is evidence of them being nazi’s. Sus for sure but pretty weak.

    I just did another quick google search regarding the somewhat recent arrests from that attempted coup. Albeit they were former members of the party so i guess too extreme for the AFD. And well not very competent or numerous.

    But thats kinda something.

      They are against immigrants, want to suppress freedom, want to separate kids with disabilities from other kids in schools, etc. They not just tolerate but supports Nazis like Höcke, who btw. told an inteviewer once that once he’s in power, the interviewer will regret asking those questions.

      I mean sure, we can pretend that they are not as bad as the NSDAP was back then and do the same thing we did with the NSDAP: giving them power. But then we will just end up with the next Nazi government like last time. I would prefer not to.

        They are against immigrants,

        Not a nazi thing. Lot of governments are. While not the most economically beneficial it is a countries right to want them or not.

        want to suppress freedom,

        They have a government that banns slogans/free speech.

        Is the current german government nazi’s?/facist?

        By all means it can make them tyrannical or authotarian but doesnt make them nazi’s unless said limitation of freedom is based

        On control of everything inside the state Nothing aganist the state And nothing outside the state.

        Then yeah thats Grade A nazi’s

        want to separate kids with disabilities from other kids in schools,

        If they are coming at it from an ubermensch angle then yeah sure. Depending on the disability there is plenty of valid reasons to want seperate classes. Personal example is that we have a special ed class for kids that are on the spectrum that makes them incompatible with other students or larger classes. But im guessing its not something reasonable like that.

        etc. They not just tolerate but supports Nazis like Höcke, who btw. told an inteviewer once that once he’s in power, the interviewer will regret asking those questions

        As scum of the earrh journalists can be. Not a good choice of words as a politician.

          Sure, you can relativize each individual point and completely ignore the big picture. Just remember that even the NSDAP didn’t advertise themselves with “vote for us so we can slaughter 6 million people and start a world war”. If you want to ignore that the AfD shows the same signs as the NSDAP did before they got control, sure. But don’t cry when we end up with the next piece of shit Nazi government in Germany that starts to errode democracy until it has full power.
