Protests held at about 100 locations over party’s meeting with neo-Nazis to discuss deporting those it deems have failed to integrate, including German citizens
More than 100,000 people turned out across Germany on Saturday in protest against the far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party, which sparked an outcry after it emerged that the party’s members discussed mass deportation plans at a meeting of extremists.
In Frankfurt, about 35,000 people joined a call under the banner “Defend democracy – Frankfurt against the AfD”, marching in the financial heart of Germany. A similar number, some carrying posters like “Nazis out”, turned up in the northern city of Hanover.
Protests were also held in cities including Braunschweig, Erfurt and Kassel and many smaller towns, mirroring mobilisation every day over the past week. In all, demonstrations have been called in about 100 locations across Germany from Friday through the weekend, including in Berlin on Sunday.
Politicians, churches and Bundesliga coaches have all urged people to stand up against the AfD.
You have no idea what nazi is and what they done, comparing AfD to nazi, sounds like left populism. And don't tell me anymore this ideology shit because my family was literally fighting against nazi in ww2 your a...hole!
Your family must be so proud how you defend their history of fighting Nazis by defending the AfD.
You have no idea what you are talking about.
Nazis committed a literal assassination of a conservative (!) politician because he was not an anti immigration Hardliner and AfD politicians visit secret meetings with said Nazis.
Now provide me link to original AfD statement " refugee children should be shot at the border" I want to hear it from them, not you spreading some populistic shit
Alternative for Germany (AfD) leader Frauke Petry triggered outrage last week by suggesting police should have the right to shoot illegal migrants at the border "if necessary."
The idea was echoed by her deputy Beatrix von Storch. When she was asked on her Facebook page on Saturday whether German border guards should use weapons against illegal female refugees with children, she answered with a clear "yes."
Lol, there are government paragraphs that are quoted, no AfD sentence "kill children". So an example of how quasi facts spread and misleading. In that case people should protest against law and that paragraph not only AfD. I am laughing so hard now about your pseudo arguments, 😂😂😂😂

Deporting german citizens because they don't align with your right-wing extremism is very nazi. Sorry to break it to you. It's even sadder that you ancestors fought exactly against the kind of people whose side you're taking right now. My ancestors were also persecuted by the nazis.
