Haven't we had this same discussion before?
The reality is that something between 20-40% voted for them. While there are problematic elements in the AFD, and they're lying populists, they're ultimately just morally bankrupt profiteers. Basically the same as linke and greens, just targeting different demographics. You're probably just the target demographic of those parties, hence your frankly insane view that banning the most popular single party would be a good idea. It would not. It would massively exaggerate the issue and further alienate even bigger chunks of the population.
The issues the AFD are raising need to be resolved. That's the only way to calm things down, but the established parties seem to inept to deliver on that, hence the increasingly problematic situation.
57% of Germans approve looking into a ban. That's the majority, simple as that. https://volksverpetzer.de/aktuelles/umfrage-mehrheit-afd-ver...
That's precisely the reason why it's so hard to interface with people like you seem to be. You've completely lost touch with reality.
The next time you're interacting with someone on the lower income percentage ask them if they think it should be banned.
You probably know the answer, just aren't willing to admit to it.
The AFD Party members don't even believe the BS they're talking about themselves. They just say whatever they think their voters want to hear. Just look at what weidel etc is doing vs what she's preaching.
So if you spend any amount of time thinking about that fact you should be able to realize that what the AFD is running on is something a big chunk of the population desires. And alienating those by removing whom theyre voting for will end in a complete disaster.
Claiming the opposite is just putting your head into the sand because you cannot face reality, like so many on the left continue to do...
