Summary
Germany’s far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party announced it is expelling three members linked to the “Saxonian Separatists,” a militant group aiming to establish a Nazi-inspired state in eastern Germany.
The group, believed to consist of 15-20 individuals, planned to exploit societal collapse to seize control of areas in Saxony, with intentions of enforcing ethnic cleansing. Police recently arrested eight suspected members in coordinated raids.
There has been an even worse version of it. Kalbitz was kicked out of the Party because he lied about his “former” connection to neo-nazi groups when he joined the party. Höcke just admitted them, so he could stay.
So not just, “you can be Nazis, but you have to do it at home,” but also, “you can hang out with the other Nazis as long as they’re our Nazis.”
More like “its okay to be a Nazi if you are honest about it and you don’t currently plan to overthrow democracy before we are ready.”
That’s Landolf Ladig umm Mister Höcke for you.
