This is the New Left's answer to everything and everyone that doesn't
share their "progressive" beliefs: declare it as extreme and ban it.
Small wonder there was a recent planned putsch in the country. What a
pity it failed!

 The funny thing is, the people who are trying to ban the AFD are the CDU!
They are equivalent to the Conservative Party in the UK and have become
essentially a *fake* right-wing party.

Not as lunatic right wing as Cursitor Dooom Would like.

Both the CDU and the CP in Britain
have been slowly sliding further to the Left in recent times, hoping that
no one would notice.

Not from the point of view of anybody remotely sane, which Cursitor Doom isn't.

It's left a glaring great hole on the political Right
so traditional conservatives had no representation. But nature abhors a
vacuum so the AFD arose in Germany and the Reform Party in the UK.

There are always enough lunatics around - Cursitor Doom is an example - to support a small lunatic right party.

The Reform Party can expect similar treatment in due course I would guess (if
they too become a threat to the status quo - which seemingly they suddenly
have....)

Will the lunatics get to run the asylum? Four years of Trump mainly lead to many avoidable US Covid-19 deaths. His supporters still haven't realised it.
