Summary

Alternative for Germany (AfD), a far-right party founded in 2013, is poised for its strongest national election result yet in Germany.

Initially focused on eurozone bailouts, AfD shifted its focus to migration, gaining significant support and entering parliament in 2017.

The party, now advocating for large-scale deportations and opposing support for Ukraine, has become a significant political force, particularly in eastern Germany, and is under observation for suspected right-wing extremism.

    Every time someone pointed out problems caused by migrants, legal and illegal, they got downvoted. Now I’m sure that the left and those infected by the woke virus really hate their country. No one in their right mind would ignore damages done to their own country.

      Every time someone pointed out they hate groups of people, in arbitrary subcategories, they got downvoted.

      There, I fixed that for you.

        Every time someone pointed out the truth, they got downvoted.

        Nah. This version is more precise and concise.

      Every time people try to blame immigrants for problems they don’t cause they get downvoted.

      Fixed that for you.

          " I don’t have any valid claims to make or evidenced arguments to cite, so I’m just gonna say ‘woke virus’ a few times to dismiss everyone else’s position. I’m so edgy and smart."

              Imagine acting like white American citizens don’t do things that horrible or so.much worse literally every fucking day. This is nothing but racist propaganda by a braindead parrot taught only enough to repeat the words his master trained him on. If that wasn’t an illegal immigrant, you never would have heard her name unless you lived in that specific local community, because mental illness and human atrocities are everywhere and immigration has nothing to do with the incident.

                Really, where? Be honest, we don’t see that kind of news every day. Because it’s not real. You just made that up.

                  There were 52.7 homicides every day in the US in 2023, most committed by US citizens. As a follower of true crime podcasts, I assure you, every week there’s a new twisted, horrific murder straight out of a horror movie. Again, the vast majority of which are by US citizens. Pretending violence is an immigration issue an not a human issue is, at best, woefully ignorant, or worst, deliberately xenophobic and harmful.

            Syrian asylum seeker smile after stabbing girl

            The bastard even smiled after stabbing a girl. You know what nationality he is? People like you are the one enabling the crimes perpetuated by those people.

              Yes let’s bag all people from that country together because of one douchebag.

              Where are you from, so that I can mark everyone from that country as racists?
