Summary
Support for Germany’s far-right AfD is surging among young men, driven by concerns over immigration, conservative values, and distrust of mainstream politics.
A Pew study found 26% of German men view AfD positively, compared to 11% of women.
Social media, particularly TikTok, has helped spread its message. Some young supporters reject accusations of extremism, while others openly embrace far-right views.
Analysts warn that if mainstream parties ease their opposition to the AfD, it could become Germany’s dominant right-wing party.
Hate speech doesn’t exist. If someone issues a direct threat, like “kill that person” then that is a crime.
You’re not answering my question.
Without this censorship, in your idea, far right groups wouldn’t exist.
Do you agree?
There numbers would be dwindling without censorship, not growing. They’d be easier to identify, but also easier to talk to & listen to your perspective. You don’t win people over through violence.
