MODERATORS
The article creates the impression, this is about the AfD, a far-right party that is gaining seats in parliaments nation-wide, but it's not. The recent 'scandal' is actually about non-AfD politicians conspiring with far-right movements.
Yes, it's a loud and colorful movement against neo-fascism, but this is also clear statement to the ruling parties not to give in to pressure from the right. And it's definitely against people who are moderate on the surface and brown behind the scenes.
This is about the majority to unite and stands against the Nazis. This is about us. You don't change a Nazi by shouting at their house. you change a bystander by encouraging them to join the march.
It's not just about the afd, but also about them and the need to destroy them.
