The dDanger of the right eRightwing Extremisim in gGermany

A few days ago, Björn Höcke, head of the AfD in Thuringia was interviewed by the MDR, a gGerman tvTV channel.

In theire so -called "summer interviews," the MDR interviews each party-chefad of all relevant parties in the state of Thuringia.

It wasn't even sure ifwhy it happened.

The AfD scorearned around 25% of the vote in the last election in Thuringia.

Höcke is known to be a rightwing extremist.

Höcke is known for his qouotes about the jewishHolocaust memorial calling it a "memorial of shame"."

Religions and adjectives derived from them should always be capitalized, so it should be "Jewish memorial." I changed it to "Holocaust memorial" because I think that is more widely used.

Some of his party members couldn't distinguish qouotes from his onebook (or: quotes from one of his books) with qouotes from Hitler's "<i>Mein Kampf"</i>.

I'm not sure if HTML works on this website, but titles of books are generally italicized, not put in quotes.

Höcke also once canceledwalked out of an interview because he didn't like the reporter asking him about about the language he uses.

"Walked out of an interview" is an idiomatic way to describe leaving an interview while it's happening

You're officially allowed to can definitely call him a Ffascist.

"Officially allowed" sounds a bit odd in this context. I only capitalize "fascist" if it's referring to the Fascist Party of Italy in the 1920/40s; otherwise, the lowercase is fine. (But this usage isn't universal)

Why would a serious tvTV channel invite a rightwing extremist for an interview?

Those questions are good, yetbut the answer is simple;: because he represents a lot of voters.

They win in the eEast, but loose in the wWest.

In order to understand the problems of people living in eastern gGermany, we need to take a look into our history book.

After World War 2, gGermany was divided into two states;:

East Germany, a cCommunistic dictatorship and

West Germany, a democratic, capitalistic country.

After the reunification of gGermany in 1990, there were a lot of problems in the Eeastern part.

There's a lot to be said about this topic, but since iI'm not that familliar with that period and this text is just a practise for me, iI'm just gonna tell you this;:

Tthe people of eastern gGermany were and still are unsatisified with their treatment after the Reunification.

This anger was dissolvamplified during the refugee crisis in 2015.

"Dissolved" implies it went away/disappeared.

And now we hehere we are, 7 years after their foundation, the AfD threatens to become the second -biggest party in all gGermany (even though they lostare losing votes according to polls during the Ccorona-Cvirus crisis).

So should we give them their space in tvTV and media?

My answer to that is a clear "no"."

MThe medias can influence people in different shapeways.

If we let guys such as Höcke influence the younger generation, we're guilty for allwhat theiry doing, once in power.

The others are correct as well; I just thought I'd give you a different phrasing.

In other words;, if we let anti-democrats have their space, we doaren't protecting our democracy and therefore our democracy is vulnerable.

Democracy is, of course also, that you can vote for who or what you want, but it's also that wealso we have to ban those, who want to destroy our beloved republic.

Moliere once said;, "It is not only what we do, but also what we do not do, for which we are accountable," and iI find that very fitting.

Little side-note;: I don't want a political discussion here.

The danger of the right-wing extremisim in gGermany

In theire so called "summer interviews", the MDR interviews each party-chef of all relevant parties in the state of Thuringia.

It wasn't even sure if itmay not have even happened.

I'm not completely sure if this keeps the original meaning, but this makes more sense to me. On its own, "It may not have even happened" is still not ideal, because it sounds like the interview may have been fabricated though.

Höcke is known to be a right-wing extremist.

Höcke is known for his qouotes about the jJewish memorial, calling it a "memorial of shame".

Some of his party members couldn't distinguish qouotes from his one book with qoufrom quotes from Hitler's "Mein Kampf".

Why would a serious tvTV channel invite a right-wing extremist for an interview?

Those questions are good, yet simple;easy to answer: because he represents a lot of voters.

They win in the eEast, but loose in the wWest.

I would replace "they" with "the AfD" for clarity.

In order to understand the problems of people living in eEastern gGermany, we need to take a look into our history book.

After World War 2, gGermany was divided into two states;:

East Germany, a communistic dictatorship and

West Germany, a democratic capitalistic country.

After the reunification of gGermany in 1990, there were a lot of problems in the Eastern part.

There's a lot to be said about this topic, but since iI'm not that familliar with period and this text is just a practisce for me, iI'm just gonna tell you this;:

The noun is always "practice," although British English will use "practise" for the verb.

Tthe people of eEastern gGermany were and still are unsatisified with their treatment after the Rreunification.

This anger was dissolvebrought to a head during the refugee crisis in 2015.

"Dissolved" does not make sense, because it would mean that it disappeared.

The AfD used this anger in order to gain votes.

"In order" sounds pleonastic here, because the phrase is typically "use something [to v.]" anyway.

And now we here, 7, seven years after their foundation, the AfD threatens to become the second biggest party in all gGermany (even though they lost votes according to polls during the Corona-Crisis).

Small numbers are generally written out unless you need to emphasize quantity, for example in a math problem. What exactly defines "small" is debatable, but numbers less than ten definitely count.

So should we give them their space ion tvTV and in media?

Medias can influence people in different shapeways.

"Media" is already plural.

If we let guys such as Höcke influence the younger generation, we're guilty for all their doing, oncat they do, once they are in power.

In other words;, if we letallow anti-democrats their space, we don't protect our democracy and therefore our democracy is vulnerable.

You can "allow" someone something, but you can't "let" it to them (outside of the sense of renting).

Democracy ialso means of course also that you can vote for who or what you want, but it's also means that we ban those, who want to destroy our beloved republic.

Molieère once said;, "It is not only what we do, but also what we do not do, for which we are accountable," and iI find that very fitting.
