as much as i hate AfD and the far right, i think banning them will just put fuel on the fire and it gives them easy propaganda material, where they can pose as the victims here
it’s a really hard situation and banning feels like the bad move to me tbh
The problem is that they are being promoted and funded by our enemies. There is nothing democratic about the ways parties like the AfD are catching wind in the sails.
Banning a political party leads to a loss of funding and they’re not allowed to get back together in the same or similar constellation. It would set them back for at least a decade and destroys all of the work they put into their Nazi projects. It absolutely helps and it’s absolutely vital that this ban happens.
except it’s a bad analogy because you don’t get rid of the relatively big following of the far right this way, quite the opposite and it will just fuel them more and it annihilates this group from the democratic process, which leads to even harder radicalization
Good, fuck them and their anti-democratic brethren.

Take it from us in the USA, do not fuck around with these types of groups
Tolerance paradox.

Such as? Genuine question. I’m Dutch-Frankian, but I don’t pay that much attention to German politics. I have my own to worry about.
banning them just leads to some other even more radical party to rise up as the voter base who supports them won’t disappear
But to build up the infrastructure, the network, the funding takes years. That’s the main reason behind the ban.
Amputation is a valid course of treatment while the cancer or infection is spreading. Leaving the limb alone can lead to dead much more quickly.

Not seeing any alternatives presented here…
Solve the problems that the voterbase is experiencing. Those problems are real even if what they believe the cause is is wrong.
To be fair, we really should be trying to solve our problems anyway. Lol
Dealing leniently with their predecessor just gave him time to write his manifesto.
