The short interesting history of German's far right AfD party. It did not start as a racist nazi party, but anti-EUR party. However it was hijacked by more anti-immigration and nazi fans in 2015. https://www.politico.eu/article/german-election-2025-results-alice-weidel-afd-moment/?utm_source=email&utm_medium=alert&utm_campaign=Alice%20Weidel%20took%20the%20German%20far-right%20to%20new%20heights.%20Here%E2%80%99s%20how%20she%20did%20it

It started with anti-EU as the main topic, but had Nazis like Björn Höcke as early founding members already in 2013

And there’s a pretty big overlap between anti-EU nationalism and anti-migration rhetoric, plus assorted other forms of populism. Offering simple solutions for complex problems is a vote-winning strategy but not something that has ever created stable and successful governments (or societies for that matter).
