Theory 2 doesn’t explain the bias for the AfD.

Their economic plans are backwards and their immigration politics are unrealistic.

As Weidel was asked how she thinks how the federal police could implement the AfD plans, although much more personnel would be needed for this, she said: Don’t ask me, I‘m a politician.


>their immigration politics are unrealistic

If you give middle finger to ECHR they are totally realistic.


As someone observing this phenomon on my country and my adoption country for the last 20 years.

People may be sick, but just like folks are now finding out in US, putting these people in power is not the solution.

So far Trump hasn't done that much to hurt his folks. He mostly extracts shrieks from what Nate Silver refers as purple blob. So he may dismantle the administrative state and make the elites feeling ashamed of being US citizens, but in four years his voters may still be better off.


My parents and many family members knew quite close what PIDE/DGS and colonial war meant, so excuse me if I remain sceptical how it goes from here.

I am from Eastern Europe. You Latin people call it oppression, we call it slow Tuesday. Compared to the communist regimes Franco and Salazar were just talented amateurs.

Might be, and I don't wish for any of them, regardless of the variant.

1921: People are sick of 15 years of economic stagnation and Jews.

1. Economic problems.

2. Do not address the problem.

3. Find others who you can blame. Address the emotions of the people.

Economic stagnation is the result of Germany not being innovative and refusing to change. Even France has it better. Oh, and many East Germans broken by communism are still not back to normal.


Economic stagnation is happening because the rich have been stealing everything that isn't nailed down for decades now, and "unrestricted migration" is the convenient scapegoat they have settled on (for the moment).
