BERLIN (Reuters) - Support for the Alternative for Germany (AfD) dropped slightly in two polls published on Tuesday after 10 days of nationwide protests against the far-right party, although it remained firmly in second place.
Support for the AfD dropped 2 percentage points to 20% in a Forsa poll, the lowest level in four months. The party remained behind the opposition conservatives on 31% but still well ahead of all the three parties in Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s centre-left coalition, who together were polling 32%.
The AfD dropped 1.5 percentage points on the week to 21.5% in the poll by the German Institute for New Social Answers (INSA), behind the conservatives on 30.5% and the ruling coalition on 31%.
“The demonstrations against the AfD are supported by 37% of Germans and they are showing an impact,” INSA chief Hermann Binkert said.
It blows my mind that fascism is on the rise in fucking 21th century. IN WESTERN DEMOCRATIC COUNTRIES.
Those fucks promise easy solutions for hard problems, and the best thing, you don’t have to change and only need to vote for them. Fuckers thrive on Chaos and other people trying to explain hard topics

Been living in Germany for a few years now, I’m absolutely not surprised. Germans may have learned that throwing people in ovens is bad, but they never learned that they are not übermenschen. Which eventually means the former creeps back in

When people go ad hominem like you just did, they reveal their insecurity and inability to form a rebuttal.
That’s because everyone hung up their hats and rested on their laurels starting right after WWII. Now that the promise of that time turned out to be a lie, people are angry and looking for a place to project their malaise.
