-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline

- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

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.
German business elites tried to sell out Germany to Russia tho
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?
Did you comb your Hair with a Hammer today? Or did just took a big swig out of a Jug of paint?
No?
Then let me deconstruct your Comment.
At first you start with generalisation. You've never met all Germans, you've never get to know them good enough to say what is deep down in them. So this entire paragraph is completely irrelevant and says nothing except for "I have no Argument but I want to say something".
Then a healthy pinch of "What-about-ism". We are talking about the AFD not about the shortcomings of other political Partys. No one said they did everything right and no one said it's only the fault of the AFD. You just made that one up!
And then you present one example which has a relevance close to nothing. If you can't follow why here are two things that literally changed Europe if not the World and happend after 2017:
-Corona Pandemic 2020 -Escalation of the Ukraine Conflict to full scale War 2022.
These events and especially the political followup were not predictable in 2017. So what you are proving is widespread common Knowledge: The world was different in 2017. Congratulations that you realised this now. Better late than never.
And to put the Cherry on top a personal insult which bears again no significance to anything. But I will answer your question anyway. Since I'm a civilized Citizen of Germany and not some violence ridden fashist I will go and vote and call out fashism and disinformation everywhere were I see it.
All in all your debating skills are on the level of 4 Year old. You present facts which are outdated and are irrelevant. You try to steer the debate away from its original topic. You set up Strawmen. And you get insulting if you have nothing else to say.
If you have the mental capacity to do so, work on that. Until then I have nothing else to say to you.
I wish you a terrible Day!
I have a suspicion they're an AfD supporter.
PS. "Did you comb your hair with a hammer" won the internet today.
but hurt much? i am not going to read that wall of text. call me a fouryear old or learn how to write facism....dont care.
Ich hab das mal korrigiert du Leuchte, allerdings nicht für dich, sondern nur um dich bloßzustellen :D
