      AFD is stronger on anti-immigration and also more favored by the US tech oligarchy

        I wouldn’t even say they’re stronger on immigration anymore. The CDU proposals for the next coalition agreement could have been written by the AfD.

      No, there isn’t.

      There’s no fundamental difference between the “mainstream” parties (CDU/CSU, SPD, and Greens) and the AfD. The mainstream parties are structurally and systemically incapable of turning left, and they think they’re losing voters to the right, so they adopt the policies if not the rhetoric of the right.

      What everybody missed last year with the secret AfD party meeting exposé was that they were gloating about precisely that. They recognize that they don’t need electoral representation to achieve their agenda, they just need to pull the parties in power on to their side, and they’ve been wildly successful.

      I don’t think so, especially now with Merz. The guy is straight up a representative of finance capital. He is going to pave the way for AfD for sure.
