Germany’s far right is winning over the young (www.politico.eu)

Online campaigns like these have helped radicalize a broad swath of Germany’s youth, making extreme-right ideas that were once relegated to the margins of German political discourse increasingly mainstream. The Young Alternative, the AfD youth organization that put out the dance video, has been classified by Germany’s domestic intelligence agency as an extremist group since last year.

What is the solution here in your opinion?

Have you tried NOT hating children, and teaching them that they are everything which is wrong with the world?

Because I'd personally start there, before worrying about anything else.

Ok, we’re already not doing that, what’s next!

Have you tried tying a carrot to a stick and dangling it in front of their faces?

You know how we can tell that your comment is nothing more than far-right propaganda? By how oblivious it is to any group outside of "young straight white men".

Your cuddly, caring far-right routinely and deliberately tries to teach children that they're "everything wrong with the world", just not the white male ones. .

They try and bully trans kids into suicide. They gleefully hurl slurs at black kids and gay kids. They teach little girls that their value lies in being a servant with a low "body count". They accuse them of ruining everything from video games to dating and relationships.

But it's not bad when you do it huh?
