What’s Behind Germany’s Far-Right AfD Win?

- It's the biggest far right win since WWII- but what does it really mean for Germany? Though unlikely to form a government, the AfD's historic win in the state of Thuringin shows the far right is a political force to be reckoned with. But what's driving Germans to vote for the extremes that brought them so much trauma in the past?

In Europe, there's a growing sense of neglect towards the younger generation. They face lower salaries, longer work hours, and increased responsibilities while witnessing a surge in billionaires, particularly in countries like Germany.
The housing market adds to their woes, as property prices soar, making it difficult to afford homes, let alone start families. To compensate, cheap labor from abroad is often favored, leading to frustration among the youth, who feel betrayed.
People aren't inherently racist, but this frustration arises when governments prioritize external labor over addressing domestic issues. It's high time politicians acknowledge and tackle these pressing concerns rather than resorting to distractions. The younger generation deserves meaningful change.
instead of singling out the younger generation, i think it's more those who are on the lower income brackets (which includes the younger generation) that are being ignored/silenced in france, england, germany and usa.
@@ZHaunDK If there were an option for a blank vote to serve as a form of protest, and if over 50% of voters chose it, leading to the dissolution of power and political parties, I believe the far-right movement might never have started. But this would never happen because politicians thrive on maintaining their power, and the people who control them wouldn't know how to handle such volatility in the public's will.
@@josepedrosantiagosilva9625 i'm not convinced politicians care how few votes they get, as long as it's more than the competition. i'm also convinced the label "far-right" is kinda of a fear mongering label. extremists are easy to idenify when they speak, and dont let others tell you who is extremists or not.
@@ZHaunDKIt's happening in Canada as well.
"Turkiye" is already run by far right and m.b.
This from TRT run by the Turkish government... 😂
Turkish Jihadi TV 😂
Exactly! Hilarious.
Yes, AKP is the farthest right.
@@thomasphilip2892 jews go home !
When Islamic Turkey gonna Recognise about Armenian Genocide?
Almanya Almanların, Türkiye Türklerin.
So what's so extreme about AfD, exactly?
Nothing, there just conservative at most. Media lies endlessly
extremely anticommunist
Anti cult of death
It has been cofirmed by courts!
@@bribg423 Uh,oh!
Please America, follow suit!!
Korktun mu yahudi?
America is no for anyone. At least the native Americans are not crying. It’s a free land with people calling themselves Americans now had their forefathers migrating there. USA is different and special due to their diversity.
Comes around goes around Israel soooon
Israel is already Nazi
Victim Card rests firmly with Izlam.
Not one person from the AFD to even comment
if they comment on it, they give the story credit.
some liberal blithering doesn't deserve a response or lending it any credence at all.
AKP is the farthest right.
Yes, it has been confirmed by German courts!
Forgot to mention the recent closure of many mosques due to Islamic extremists
What about the far right Islamist dictatorial ruling party in Türkiye???
Collective Stockholm syndrome.
Hey Turkish Allies, we come back.
Afd not have a majority. Like le pen😂😂😂. When should be applied the laws that not permitted them to applied to elections?
Thanks god that common sense wins 💪
You a nazi ?
Not sure how the AfD compares to the NSDAP. Seems a major stretch to me
Hahaha😂 Deutsche Volke bravo
Wouldn't it be a hoot if the East Germans voted to secede?😂😂
Björn Höcke is less obsessed about Israel it seems.
I am so pleased. This is why I love the Germans. They are not stupid idiots like the British
Brits are the most cunning of the entire lot.
Awesome. Now The World Jewish Congress is going to go Bezerk. SO WHAT!!!!
Greetings from Germany.
The World Jewish Congress should mind its own business,
why aren't the critisizing the far right people in the Israeli government?
Am I hearing complaints about Ukraine immigrants? No? No? Why? Poland has no migration? Well, millions of Ukrainian are not migration now? Or maybe they don't have one specific type of migration?
I was a former US Army Officer stationed in Germany. Germany is an American Colony. One day, may the Germans gain their independence.
Can you give practical examples of direct US involvement in our countries affairs in the last years? Greetings from Germany🤗
@@karlheven8328 Greetings from your Master, keep learning English like a little school boy.
@@DavidBaumblatt-Terebinth Thank you but can you please give some examples please?
@@karlheven8328 I just did, in Germany, students must learn English, it is mandatory. In America, we do not have to learn German.
You don't even know what a colony is. Any american beating/killing us germans like it happened to the black populations in africa or imported to the US?
In 30 years I never even saw an american soldier.
BTW I can go whereever I please, I was in US as well.
And regarding english in schools: it was common for centurys to learn foreign languages. French was franca lingua even centuarys prior to napoleon, spanish is common, latin and old greek were common previously. It's regarded a sign of high education like many other things like geography and art. And it has more to do because of nearby england, its former empire and it's ongoing importance in international trade - which is highly important for germany. Especially in europe with it's fragmented languages you need some common denominator. And english is easy to learn for germans, it has so much commonality unlike scandinavian, french, italian and slavic languages
Turkish,! Take care of your people, who illegal come to Germany. AfD is a democratic voted Party. Most people love it. German must defend Germany. Turkish,!! You better keep your illegal Foreigners in Istanbul. Thankyou Madam.
Most people love it? That's definitely wrong! Nearly 33% of the voters in the small Federal State of
Thuringia voted for the far right party AfD. They got fewer votes in other Federal States so far. About 67% of voters don't want an extremely right (cofirmed by courts!) MP, Björn Höcke, in Thuringia!
Let them go back and build that wall again
