Protests held at about 100 locations over party’s meeting with neo-Nazis to discuss deporting those it deems have failed to integrate, including German citizens
It’s almost literally a reenactment by the AFD of what happened around the 1930s. It’s so fucked up.
But this is 2024 , so people should be more aware, and are protesting massively.
Unfortunately, the resurgence of (forms of) fascism is a worldwide trend, and not an isolated phenomena.
Add: many people seem to be calling Fascistist “Nazis” nowadays.
That’s so confusing to me, as if they don’t know that Nazism is a particular form of Fascism.
While Fascism in all its varieties and guises should be the true denominator for trouble, and is the enemy of democracy.

The AfD has been taken over by literal Neo-Nazis that see themselves in the tradition of the NSDAP though, calling them that is correct.
It’s about the extreme violent racism of the Fascism in Israel.
At least in Europe, none of the variants of Fascism other than Nazisim ever engaged in the kind of widespread massacre of civilians from another etnic group whilst talking about them as untermenschen that you see being done in Israel (which before all this was already deeply racist about Palestinians and Arabs in general, but now went full-on Genocidal).
Whilst Netanyahu and his government haven’t gotten quite to the level of the original Nazis yet, they use similar propaganda techniques, display extreme racism towards Palestinians (calling them “human animals”, saying that “Palestinians are violent” - not Hamas, Palestinians - frequently claiming to want to expel or eliminate them and even suggesting nuking Gaza) and have already exceeded all other variants of Fascism in their violence in general and certainly in violence very specifically against civilians of another etnic group.
Saying Nazi instead of fascist is a distinction without a difference. All Nazis are fascist, but not all fascists are Nazis. Most people don’t even know fascism originated in Italy or got the name from the fasces Roman lictors carried while escorting senators and dictators. I think it’s ok if people are only able to recognize fascism as Nazism, because it all gets to the same idea, they are bad organizations that want to rule you and take away rights.

For sure, they have been taken over by Neo Nazis.
But they aren’t the only ones being called Nazis nowadays. For example, the other day someone called Nentanyahu ( Israel) a “Nazi” .
That’s just confusing, considering what happened in WW2. If they’d brand him Fascist, it would be more correct .
Calling Netanyahu a Nazi is mostly about pointing out the hypocrisy so it makes sense
