He probably wants to do worse, but can’t say it out load yet. He’s a fucking Nazi.
Yup! So much so that even members of a party under investigation for being a nazi front tried to expel him.
This is beautiful, though:
After Höcke’s “monument of shame” comment, the Center for Political Beauty, a Berlin-based art collective, erected a full-scale replica of one section of the Holocaust memorial in Berlin within viewing distance of Höcke’s home in Bornhagen as a reminder of German history.
Why would you leave out Bernd Höcke’s first name? ^^
I didn’t, the source I quoted did. Would be pretty weird for me to make a point of adding it as if it makes him any more or less of a nazi scumbag to have that very common in Germany name 🤷
it’s a running gag on “heute show”, never mind.
Yeah, people always seem to think the AfD is one united front.
But they span the whole gamut from Tucker Carlson ultra-right-wing-but-also-no-grasp-on-factual-reality to literally-a-fucking-nazi-wanting-to-burn-jews-themselves-in-their-own-oven.
They’re abhorrend as a party, and the fact that so much of the shit media in Germany low-key supports them hard and pushes people towards voting for them (namely and chiefly the Axel Springer media landscape which is sadly huge) and as a result they get quite a significant number of votes is… “worrying” to put it mildly. As a German in particular, I have genuine plans how and where to move if shit hits the fan, which at the present rate it will. >.> (Ireland, probably)

Come to Austria everything is so much better here /s
(I’m not sure if there is a country where there isn’t a drift towards stupi… ehh “right-wing conservative politics”)
That’s a kinda dumb assumption of them though. Faschism is a highly state-controlled system. If the government doesn’t like you, you and your property are gone.
Yes, it is dumb, but but it is in fact what they are doing.
Same story is playing out across much of europe - the conservatives and right liberals are building coalitions with the fascists, because without them the left would win, and that is apparently less acceptable to them than enabling authoritarians.
Pretty alarming, honestly.
It’s the capitalist’s short sightedness. They don’t care for what happens in 10 years, or even in two years. If they can make money/gain power right now, all is fair game.
ironically like with the Nazis, the capitalists who are pushing this shit, do so because they have a very real chance of being the state, it is not highly state controlled, because fascism is a modern day barbarism, the state just being an organizational cover and legitimization of an elite aristocracy to do what they want.
remember when the Nazis took power they privatized almost all public works of the Weimar, and privatized it into their own ownership.
Conservatism is a plague of oppression, sickness and death. It always has been.
History has shown that conservatism cannot be defeated by pacifism.
George Orwell wrote in 1942, during the war:
"Pacifism is objectively pro-fascist. This is elementary common sense. If you hamper the war effort of one side, you automatically help out that of the other.“
With that said conservatism is not fascism, but one enables the other.
We’re talking about AfD. They don’t even hide the fact that they are nazis. People who vote for them never really learned from history.
I hate the AFD so much. Me and lots of other Germans try so hard to show the World that Germany is a modern inclusive and liberal Democracy from its deepest core and then POS like Höcke comes along and does shit like this. And I really can’t understand how anyone at all will believe anything that anyone from this shit show of a political party says. They are willing to sell out Germany to Russia, the have shown that they don’t care about anyone and everything they are interested in is spreading hate and getting in Power. I hate them so much.
Like all right-wing parties they lack any actual real agenda. That is, they’re not interested in running the currently existing state, they want their fascist WW3 Nazi Germany with them at the helm. Rather, their entire political “argument” right now is “Current stuff is SHIT!”. That’s how they get all their votes, from people being angry and disappointed.
But, much as I like to ramble about current politicians (since you can’t call the AfD fuckers “politicians”), things can be shit outside of the control of anyone in particular. As if Höcke could have handled COVID. Imagine what a disaster it would have been if he had any say in it. Imagine how even the nascent efforts at climate would be worse. Inclusion, Russia, education, health, there’s not a single topic the AfD would improve if they got power. And they were openly do not intend to improve anything. They’re completely open about it.
but then again …germans. they pretend to be open minded and inclusive. but the deeper you look, there more you see it is a fake. you pin this in afd but seem to have forgotten CDU/CSU, SPD and the other crooks. germans just do not acknowledge it and thereby just feed to it.
example: https://blog.till-westermayer.de/index.php/2017/08/08/rechtsruck-im-political-compass-ernsthaft/
so in 2017 germans wrote blogs there wouldnt be a rise in facism. numbers today say: there is a rise and it did not stop.
what did you do to stop it but bitch?
…personally
We should kick Höcke out of politics first. He has already left humanity long ago.-
Fascist. You can call Höcke a fascist, courts said so
Actually, you can also straight up call him a Nazi in public by now! ;)
funny I’d like to kick him…
Later added: "They need special care, we need to withdraw them from our normal schools and build camps to keep them together, preferably with easy rail access.
Höck approves of this message!
I know a person who has worked as an individual assistant of special needs pupils for many years and he thinks that specialized schools can provide better and more adequate care than the inclusive approach in common schools. Criticism of our education system is necessary and important but what Bernd Höcke has to say about it is of course irrelevant. Even if a part of his criticism might be accidentally valid, he -as always- is criticizing these things for the wrong reasons because of his neonazi background. Has this guy even worked with special needs pupils? From what I know he was just a generic history teacher before he went into right-wing populism so his competence in the matter is questionable at best.

Just like Ellen DeGeneres
This was my first thought - like man, maybe this dude is horrible because he’s looked like that his whole life
Looks like Kenneth Copeland.
Jesus, this world man. It seems I read dumb horrible shit every couple days. I always thing, nahh can’t top that and then a couple days later some even more dumb horrible shit is posted.
It’s always been like this. It’s just now we hear about it more. But in a way it’s good. It shows we as a society collectively cringe more at this than condone it. Perhaps keeping it public and reminding people why they are stupid and ignorant through public scrutiny and outrage is one way to combat it.
Welp, this sounds familiar.
