Summary

Thousands of Germans protested the CDU/CSU party for collaborating with the far-right AfD to pass anti-immigration legislation.

The move, seen as a breach of a post-war taboo against extremist parties, sparked outrage and accusations of making AfD extremism socially acceptable.

The CDU/CSU argues the legislation is necessary due to concerns about immigration and recent attacks by individuals who should have been deported.

      There are a lot of old people who vote CDU because “that’s what we have always done”. Many people don’t bother to read what the parties actually stand for. If they are told, they often don’t believe it. Same with protest voters choosing the fascist AfD “to show those corrupt politicians on top”. Meanwhile AfD is the most corrupt party of all, by far.

        This is like a wife who is beaten by her husband. Instead of leaving, they tell themselves “I can change him”
