    My first thought when I saw the headline!

    BTW, the AfD immediately complained to JD Vance and asked him to do something. That’s going to backfire hard.

      I don’t know if they understand that their close association with Trump & Musk made the classification extremely easy, politically.

      They are historically unpopular and they are dragging all their allies down with them.

        I’m desperately hoping for these things:

        1. the AfD gets disbanded as soon as possible. If Germany keeps dragging its feet it just gives them more ammunition. The legality is clear on this. And I know, there will be protest from their constituency, and ranting and raving and pulling of hairs, but it just needs to be done.
        2. the - some - other parties figure out how to use social media properly. Die Linke seems to have it down rn. I’m not sure if this requires bringing “cool” people to the front while “uncool” people do the actual work / hold the actual power in the back, but if it does, just make it so! Because it certainly would be better than uncool people like Merz being the populist face of the party while at the same time making policy that seems to aim more at saving face than actual policy.

      Can we just fucking pass the “I’m rubber you’re glue” law already which would make any stupid fucker instantly shot out of a cannon directly into whichever capitol building near them if they ever tried to enact any overtly obvious bigoted law?

      I would say that we should deport them, but I would rather we not run the risk.
