    Deport Foreigners, Less taxes for the rich, Less social programms, more “pride in the nation”, less rights for minorities. The usual right wing asshole playbook.

    They want to stop immigration, especially Muslim immigration to Germany

    Well from their website, which is in German so few Americans have probably read it. But I’ll hit some of their points.

    They are against German troops being used as oeacekeepers. They want Germany to restart conscription for their armed services. They oppose Turkey entering the EU. They want a reestablishment of a German border guard. They want an annual security policy debate to be had in an open forum in the Bundestag.

    They want to regulate German companies that would prevent them from selling off “knowledge built up in our country over generations”. They wish to restore economic ties to Russia. At the same time they want the opening of German markets to developing nations rather than Germany simply paying those developing nations with cash aid.

    They are against the Euro zone because they feel it’s basic tenet of no liability of debts of other countries and no national debt exceeding 60 percent have been ignored.

    These are just some of the things on their website.

    They are German nationalists and primarily are concerned with the issue of immigration. It’s hard to he objective and generous with the description, so I’ll just leave the objectivity and generosity.

    Basically they are German ethnonationalists. It’s hard to play this fucking game with them “wanting to restrict immigration”. The truth is they are what is known as blood and soil ethnonationalists. They belive Germany belongs to the German people and ONLY the German people. They want to “restrict” immigration insofar as they want to close the country to immigrants and expel all i.migrants within the country. This is like identical shit to the nazis, like Germany first, Germany for Germans type shit. They are racists and they want to use the full force of the German government to make their racism into law. They also support all the typical fascist stuff, they think women should be home making, subservient baby making machines and they want young men to all be soldiers and make babies with the subservient women. There’s no room for gay people or non German people in their vision of Germany or independent women. They are just nazis.

    They want Germany to be the test ground for networks of city states. It’s the perfect set up. They also want pretty much anything the heritage foundation wants. And they want to do all this so as to essentially break Europe as a concept and usher in something else. Some, not sure how much, would link all this to servers on the moon/ AI monitored humanity and security for the 1% in space. Plus eugenics and AI improved people and forms of immortality. It gets weirder the further out you travel. There’s some areas where there’s more concrete consensus though. Subjugated women. End of democracy. End/ inconsequence of nation state. Slavery/ things that look like it. End of global health. No common humanity. An unsustainable planet requiring the death of billions so order may be restored is probably an unspoken consensus? Harder to be sure. Maybe because it’s both outrageous and also demonstrably false.

    Here are some quotes:

    “Anyone who openly lives out homosexuality faces prison time… We should do the same in Germany!”
    [Andreas Gehlmann, member of the far-right AfD party, advocating for laws similar to those in authoritarian or theocratic regimes where homosexuality is criminalized]

    “We should form an SA and clean things up!”
    [Andreas Geithe, AfD, referring to the SA (Sturmabteilung), the Nazi Party’s paramilitary group known for street violence and suppressing political opponents in the 1930s]

    “The big problem is that Hitler is portrayed as the absolute evil.”
    [Björn Höcke, prominent AfD leader known for historical revisionism and minimizing Nazi crimes; this quote suggests relativizing Hitler’s role in history]

    “Shoot the scum or beat them back to Africa.”
    [Dieter Görnert, AfD, expressing violently racist views likely directed at African migrants or Black Germans]

    “At least we now have so many foreigners in the country that another Holocaust would be worth it.”
    [From leaked chat logs attributed to Marcel Grauf, who worked for AfD politicians; the quote invokes genocide as a desirable solution to immigration]

    “Deport Antifa to Buchenwald.”
    [Mirko Welsch, AfD, referring to Buchenwald, a Nazi concentration camp; calling for political opponents (Antifa activists) to be sent to a site of mass murder]

    “It’s right to continue calling people with black skin the N-word.”
    [Thomas Seitz, AfD, defending the use of a racial slur that is widely recognized as dehumanizing and offensive]
