Unfortunately, it also shows very clearly that even legal victories are no proof of a properly functioning constitutional state.” He observed that the far-right AfD party has by now become “more respectable” than Jewish Voice.
Germany has entered extraordinarily dangerous territory and the rest of the world needs to wake up to how close it is to repeating the worst of its history, but this time by violently cracking down on Jews for speaking out against a genocide… ostensibly to protect Jews, which is actually probably an even dumber rationalization than the last time Germany decided to start conducting state violence against Jews.
Time for the meek centrists of Germany to rise and shine, there is ZERO space for complacency of spirit here, it doesn’t matter if the majority of your country doesn’t support this, that doesn’t mean that fascism won’t take over, that is NOT how fascism gains power… YOU are how fascism takes power when you let this go on and keep telling yourself “Oh that is bad, but we are going to be ok, their moment will surely pass! They are unpopular with most!”.
Note that the biggest Irony here is that fears around the Ukraine War have supercharged dangerous far right politics in Europe and yet the ONLY way russia can regain its political legitimacy enough to keep from crumbling apart is if Europe descends into righwing extremism and fascism to the extent that lazy russian narratives about the “Nazification” of Europe turn out to be accidentally true or more rather like turn out to be fruitful results from russian coordination with far right european political parties.
Let us not forget, it is a fact that russia’s allies in Europe and across the world are on the FAR RIGHT, thus ceding power to far right movements in your country DIRECTLY makes you less safe from russian aggression.
