MODERATORS
Always remember, the AfD is made up of only personalities with integrity.
The AfD didn't just ban their candidate number 1 (Maximilian Krah) from campaign events but candidate number 2 (Petr Bystron) as well. He's been accused of accepting bribes from Russia. Meanwhile, one of Krah's staffers has been arrested for spying for the People's Republic of China.
Krah, in a weekend interview with Italian newspaper La Repubblica, said that someone who had been a member of the SS paramilitary force in Nazi Germany was "not automatically a criminal".
Totally-not-a-nazi ^TM^
That sounds like a violation of the constitution, as I understand it?
I thought calling somebody "not-a-nazi" would be okay, but guess I just gotta try to be better. Sorry, didn't want to mess with the Grundgesetz.
I think you misunderstand me - surely being a member of an SS paramilitary group is a violation of the constitution?
Yeah, it was just a dumb joke. I'll try harder next time.
No that's impossible. The (there only ever was the SS, not an number of them) SS was the paramilitary arm of the NSDAP, the political party of Hitler. And it was dissolved with the Third Reich before the Grundgesetz was adopted.
It sounds like the constitution defines Nazism in narrower terms than I expected. That's a shame.
No, there is no definition of Nazism in the Grundgesetz.
You seem to be misunderstanding both the quote and the comment! No offense, i can see how it could be confusing.
What Krah said was meant in a historical context. Kind of a "not all SS-members were criminals", basically downplaying the Nazis crimes.
The commenter sarcastically called him "totally not a nazi" for that statement.
vote for us. Our lead candidate is... We don't talk about him. But vote for him anyway.
Nazi. The missing word is Nazi, in case anyone is wondering. And people know and that is exactly why they vote for those fucks.
In the AfD they all are, the difference is that this one said the quiet part out loud.
Totally vote for us. We're a bunch of na... Uhm, we don't talk about that either. But vote for us anyway.
