I think I’m OOTL. An ant-fascist statement from them is wonderful, but what is their association to the Potsdam incident referenced in the statement?

Edit: is it just that they are a German company?

Illecors,

Probably. Germany is having a bit of a fever with a fsr right party.

haui_lemmy,

In a little more detail: germany has tried to conquer europe and used industrialized genocide against marginalized groups under fascist leadership.

The party in question has evidently planned to start deporting immigrants, immigrant decendants and sympathizers.

That is pretty much how it started the last time.

No plans really. They (members of party AfD) “JUST” had a meeting, in November, with a guy (Sellner) to make such plans. This was leaked in a journalistic research by Correctiv. Shameful and concerning as it is, they are two different things. Hopefully that Sellner is banned to enter Germany again (he’s been revoked visa to US and other countries already because of such talks). Now, my concern (personal opinion) is that other zealots (CSU, CDU) distance themselves as a ‘better’ alternative still being right extremists themselves…

Edit: To clarify, the “just” in quotes is to denote sarcasm because even if there’s a difference between planning, having a plan or implementing it, the matter at hand is very important indeed. Of course, it can’t be taken lightly. Still, is a relief that we are living the first, and not the second or third scenarios mentioned.

Chewy7324,

I disagree with calling CDU right extremist, because the majority isn’t. Calling all conservatives right extremist erodes the meaning of the term. Now we know that parts of the CDU are (likely) right extremist, but I’d say it’s a small minority.

haui_lemmy,

They‘re not just talks but thanks for clarifying. I know most of this but others might not.

Hitler did the same. They just „talked“ in the beer halls back then. This ideology needs to be banned from holding german office ever again. Even the idea to deport people based on their heritage (not their immigration status) needs to disqualify from holding public office. Actually, using heritage, blood, genes or anything to distinguish between people that can be used this way needs to be outlawed immediately.

Also, the cdu has reighned over this country for decades and although I‘m not a fan, making them the same as the fascist party (afd) is very counterproductive.

Every party needs to reflect on this and try to reach their members who are in danger of becoming fascists and educate them and definitely need to make rules that fascist ideology can never be part of any party or the government.

As they say „never again, is now.“
