    Funny thing is that the AFD has been labeled as a “suspected” extremist group by our intelligence service and are still allowed to be active… Sometimes I don’t understand how my own country works…

      Not as an extremist group, but as a suspected extremist group, that’s a difference. Therefore they also can’t use surveillance measures against them yet.

        Tbf they only avoided banning due to them being irrelevant and the judged agreed that banning them would likely give them more popularity.
