So called nazi slogans are horrible left wing framing

edit

Mr Hoecke used the term Alles fur Deutschland which was not known to be used as a nazi slogan and hardly used by them at all. Also the verdict has been reached at a lower court and has been appealed by Hoecke. 62.226.94.158 (talk) 23:33, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

"Since World War II" semantics

edit

The wording "The AfD became the first far-right party in Germany since World War II to win a plurality of seats in a state election" implies that state elections were held during World War II, which they were not (elections as a whole did not exist in Nazi Germany, and the federal system was replaced by the Gaue). 1933 is possibly the most previous time a far-right party won a state election as Template:Hesse state elections shows a state election in 1933 without an article (which I couldn't find further information on in English), but there are otherwise the 1932 Prussian state election and 1932 Thuringian state election to show a possible 1932 date. Until a 1933 date can be verified, perhaps it should be reworded to say:

Wrong. National socialists were socialists and left wingers on economic issues and therefore not far right. Within the AFD socialist is a smear term and the party is clearly pro free market. 62.226.87.152 (talk) 22:38, 4 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
