Driven by the grand coalition of CDU and SPD, open authoritarianism has become acceptable again in recent years. The racist negotiation of migration movements in Europe (…), abolition of the right to strike by the Collective Bargaining Act passed under the applause of the unions are just some examples of it. The illegal undermining of fundamental rights during the G20 summit in Hamburg under the supervision of a red-green Senate, as well as the subsequent staging of a closed “popular front” against “left-wing extremism” was used to legitimize state repression. The increasingly repressive nation-state policy with its particularly violent claim to domination and exploitation, and the deadly force of German foreign policy between border regimes and expansion are, in addition to many others, an expression of the current authoritarian escalation. The AfD and its party congress are a symbol and symptom, but their success is also the product of those majority-capable conditions that are responsible for this state and its fans and are currently still managed by the Union and the SPD. We therefore take the party convention of the AfD as an opportunity to protest against this situation. (Source: Antifa Infamous)
