    The dumbest comment ever.

    Still not untrue! The Number of AfD- Supporters is rising and rising in Germany.

    But it is not just a phenomenon in Germany, in fact it is found in many western countries.

    It kinda compares to the MAGA-Movement in the US - people are very disappointed with the current german government and the inflation just taking its toll on the families with low income.

      To be clear. I’m not implying Germany is better or worse than the US. We clearly need to clean up our room too.

        Oh I agree that we’re worse.

        This political situation we’re in here in Germany with our history… Noone would have believed it being possible a decade ago. Now our right-wing party AfD is placing 20% in our current political surveys (Question: if elections were next Sunday what party would you vote for?)…

        And let me make it very clear: many of those right-wing voters can’t understand why Trump is so popular in the US.

        It is frightening, ridiculous and maniac at the same time.
