Not entirely correct. Their economic views actually align quite closely to those of the FDP and CDU, both of which can also sometimes be pragmatic on foreign policy (except in regards to Russia where Blackrock Merz is just an unhinged warmongering lunatic). They are very neoliberal for the most part. They are only contrarian on certain foreign policy positions, like the Ukraine war, and some aspects of the EU, and even there they are not always so. For example they are also pro-American and rabidly pro-Israel, same as the rest of the mainstream parties. Their biggest disagreement is probably with the Greens who are fanatically pro-deindustrialization and pro war with Russia, while AfD is much more populist in rhetoric on these issues. Otherwise they are really not that different from the other mainstream parties, especially now that the AfD's anti-immigrant platform has essentially been adopted by the CDU.

German politics is really just 90% fascists at this point, the other 10% are basically just Die Linke and BSW, and these are just socdems at best.
