I'm not fully following on what your point is; My post was primarily intended to be informative of political actions on the other side of extremism.
Also, banning a political party is quite a big hammer, regardless of how important the party itself is.
- dtornabene 9y agoDo you have any awareness about the laws governing the history of violent extremism in Germany? Theres a reason right wing and far right wing parties face legal scrutiny.
- mikejb 9y agoTechnically speaking, there's no law governing any history; There's laws governing behavior in the present that arose from events in history. I live in Germany for 12 years by now; I can't claim a lawyer-level knowledge of e.g. §130 StGB, but I have a basic understanding. What I'm having trouble following is the logic of "the violent extremism on the other side is less bad, because it hasn't led to similarly horrible effects yet".
