Great question! There certainly is a connection to homeopathy and the wider context of alternative spiritual beliefs, some of which were invented and/or have deep roots in Germany. But there is a recent study (German only, sorry) [1] which investigated precisely this hypothesis and came up with a more nuanced view: - There is a synergy between valuing opposition for opposition's sake and alternative spiritual beliefs - Those beliefs include fringe christian sects, radical anthroposophic believers, oppositional well-off citizens and traditional political opposition So there is an amalgam of all of these, and they're currently linked by a shared opposition against a perceived over-bearing state.
