    Who are those 50.000 that went from green party to afd? What kind of reason could there possibly be for that?

    Not to speculate too much but according to court records, Beate Zschäpe browsed Greenpeace news before setting the camper ablaze.

    The German far-right has never been anti-environmentalist as such, much to the contrary: On the first Green party convention there were a lot of people who were of the opinion that not enough is being done for the German forest. Until they got kicked out with prejudice. It’s the centre-right which likes to bury nuclear waste in leaky barrels in leaky salt mines.

      Where the fuck did you get that nonsense?

      This is also bullshit. The AfD literally does not believe in climate change and wants to get the coal industry running again. The Greens are pretty much the number 1 enemy of the far right in Germany and everyone caring for the environment is seen as a menace, because the whole topic kinda became a left leaning political topic somehow (likely due to US politics).

        Public TV. Some documentary about the whole insanity that happened that day.

        The AfD literally does not believe in climate change and wants to get the coal industry running again.

        I never said anything to the contrary… well I guess I should’ve been more specific: Nazis were never anti-environmentalist as such. I think AfD climate denialism roots in their neoliberal history, when Nazis took over they didn’t change it because they’re not planning on doing anything in their programme once in power, anyway, and it’s politically convenient.

            Germany. Greenpeace was quite prominent in her browser history. She’s a murderous fascist assclown doesn’t mean she doesn’t care about the whales, and whatever. Hitler loved dogs. How is this surprising or unbelievable to you.

            …and, ok, fine, I’ll get you a source. Not the original documentary (probably depublished), have a taz article:

            1. November 2011: Uwe Mundlos und Uwe Böhnhardt liegen tot in einem Wohnmobil in Eisenach. Das Ende der Terrorzelle NSU, nach dreizehn Jahren. 181 Kilometer östlich, in der Frühlingsstraße 26 in Zwickau-Weißenborn, sucht die Benutzerin „Liese“ am Computer nach Nachrichten. „Liese“ ist einer der Alias-Namen von Beate Zschäpe. Wie sie vom Tod ihrer Kumpanen erfährt, ist immer noch unklar. Aber irgendwie muss sie es mitbekommen haben. Nun flieht sie. Kurz vorher tippt „Liese“ noch einen Satz in das Suchfeld des Internetbrowsers: „wohin kann ich sicher spenden“. Sie geht auf Seiten der Diakonie, eines Tierheims, von Greenpeace.

            She set her apartment ablaze, not the camper with the other two dead Nazis inside, I misremembered that one.

              lmao So we went from “browsing Greenpeace news” to “she was visiting a website of an animal shelter”. And no, Hitler did not love dogs. You’re just continuing to spew far right propaganda bullshit here to push a narrative.

              Blondi played a role in Nazi propaganda by portraying Hitler as an animal lover. Dogs like Blondi were coveted as “germanische Urhunde”, being close to the wolf, and became very fashionable during the Nazi era. On 29 April 1945, one day before his death, Hitler expressed doubts about the cyanide capsules he had received through Heinrich Himmler’s SS. To verify the capsules’ potency, Hitler ordered Dr. Werner Haase to test one on Blondi, who died as a result.

      Yeah but the green party is like the official antagonist for the AfD

      Of all the parties there are their favourite target to delegitimize at any possiblity
