The Christian Democratic Union and the allied Christian Social Union secured the largest share of votes in the German federal election on Sunday, according to exit polls from German broadcaster ZDF.
Hopefully, the new government will clamp down on propaganda and disinformation platforms. As well as new laws to charge and remove any party or individuals associated with white supremacist or Nazi groups.
That being said, the discontent associated with the rise of the AfD should be addressed.
I think the trend is worrying, because he lost now because he supported too little, but in four years it may be another 1933, or even sooner. Elon is a dangerous man. No one on earth should have the power he has now. From his POTUS to his constellations of satellites, rockets and the ability to spy.
Our country is divided, the line is the former border to east germany. Blue are the districts where the far right won. West Germany pumped billions into east infrastructure, yet they are pro Russians fascist.
They pretended that they want to throw Höcke out of his party, forbid his "Flügel" (the right wing of that right-wing organization) - and elected him as leader of their branch in Thüringen (Thuringia).

Another problem is that CDU is under 30% -- trouble is brewing for Friedrich Merz
The new generation does not remember and does not read :-(
My adult children didn’t vote in November, even though both of their grandfathers served in WWII.
Incredibly disappointing.

~+9% for the AfD Nazis is devastating!
Antifascism is a good start. Remind Americans please.
Somebody tell the former East Germany.
No rest for the weary.
Pour Musk 🖕🖕🖕
20% right wing sucks though. Allegedly they got rid of the most extreme Nazis, but I don't trust them one bit.
They might be able to deconstruct themselves now though. People will watch their moves.
