Democrat Party "activists" in the U.S. are not only willing but eager to ban the Republican Party and any others who obstruct their paths to power. They've already accomplished that on many campuses and in certain West Coast cities. In some cities, they have assembled violent fascist bands to enforce their bans. It's KKK redux.

The only difference with the Klan is the Antifa thugs wear black.

Funny how "right wing" equals "National Socialist;" the true political spectrum is not right versus left, or liberal versus conservative, it's liberty versus tyranny. In Germany's case, the tyrants are already in charge.

I have never doubted that the objective of the Democrats is to create a one-party state such as they have in Germany. (In Germany, as you can see, they don't even need to win a majority to accomplish this). Here the idea of bringing into millions of migrants was to create a whole new mass of Democrat voters. This explains why we have to expel as many as possible.

Can Germany ever be a proper republic without coercion or imposed partition? If they had won either World War, they'd still be a monarchy or dictatorship.

Arme Deutschland--historically stuck in the middle of Europe, pulled this way by the perfidious French and that way by the barbaric Russians. Going all the way back to the Holy Roman Empire, the Germans have been unable to establish a successful polity that can both defend itself from the ever-present pincers and promote a liberal culture. It seems that they have decided they can only have either an authoritarian state or a liberal order. Sadly, in spite of all their Hegels and Marxes, Adenauers and Merkels, they still can't figure out how to create a defendable liberal polity.

Just a thought. Maybe its time for Germany to go back to pre 1860, before it got Unified by Prussia.

What I have "learnt" from history, is that Germans seem to favor totalitarianism.

Been writing abut this from my viewpoint, immersed in the story of a Jewish family who took out visas in 1924 and left Germany in 1933..https://dianamarahenry.substack.com/p/facing-the-next-holocaust?r=ras46

Think this is oh too true. Thank you .

The German Left is claiming that they are preventing Nazism while actually becoming Nazis.

I thought I misread it at first, CSU Socialist. I thought socialist described the Greens and SPD. Oh, how times change.

Do you think that the people in the polls that "favor banning the AfD" are afraid to say anything else? That would explain the discrepancy between the polling and the voting. Kind of like the 2024 election here.

If extremism requires the German establishment to take action, why do they also not also investigate Die Linke party, which also holds seats in the German Parliament? It's a direct descendant of the E. German Communist party and the precursor Communist movement in Germany is a major factor that lead to the reactionary rise of the Nazis.

Too bad Sec. Rubio didn't ask the German Foreign Office.
