After the end of World War II, Germany spent a long time. Through various memories of politics, "opposing racial cleaning" as a historical lesson, deeply engraved in national memory.In Germany, as long as a company staff involves racial discrimination, it is likely to fell in the face.Therefore, Potsdam's conspiracy actually challenged the moral bottom line of the Germans.
Germany is a country that recognizes the deepest crimes of World War II after the war, and has established a set of mechanisms called "Defensive Democracy (combat democracy) to preventThe possibility of extreme forces coming back. This "defensive democracy" mechanism absorbs the historical lessons of the Nazi Nazi, and does not allow "democratic enemies to try to subvert the democratic system itself with democracy."The other party's alternative selection of the party (AFD) participated in the "Potsdam conspiracy", intending to migrate about 2 million German immigrants to North Africa.Defense -type democratic mechanisms to ban alternative selection parties, but it is sincere.
The Patstein conspiracy was revealed by the German investigation and reporting the media "Correctiv" on January 10.In November last year, a total of 15 extreme rights gathered in a villa in the Potsdam region near Berlin, Germany. The "overall plan" mentioned above discussed the 2 million immigrants including German citizens, including Germany.Move to a country in North Africa.Interestingly, the location of the Potsdam conspiracy this time was less than eight kilometers away from the "Wanhu Conference" where the Nazi high -level agreed racial Jews in 1942; maybe it is a historical coincidence, and some people believe that it is a "history of history.Tribute to the "ceremony.
Political contradictions that have been resentful
In recent years, the comparison of the organization of the other party and the "anti -alternative party" has become a controversial point for German politics. Even without this Potsdam conspiracy, the confrontation and contradictions between the two factions will be sooner or later.The problem.But this time the Potsdan conspiracy finally chose the party to choose the party with a "racial cleaning" plan, thus stimulating the general strong opposition of the German people.
After the end of World War II, Germany spent a long time. Through various memory politics education, "opposing racial cleaning" was used as a historical lesson, and he was deeply engraved in national memory.In Germany, as long as a company staff involves racial discrimination, it is likely to fell in the face.Therefore, Potsdam's conspiracy actually challenged the moral bottom line of the Germans. From January 19th to 21st, Germany was full of demonstrations.According to statistics, 300,000 people in Germany participated in this series of anti -polar rights, and played slogans such as "opposing hatred", "defending democracy" and "not that era".
The remarks of the alternative selection of the party and the relevant right -right people have been violated Article 3, 16, and Article 21 of the German Basic Law; more than 25 members of the Social Democratic Party have jointly called for the alternative party to ban the alternative party in accordance with the German Basic Law.The German defense democracy itself has the "anti -constitutional party forbidden mechanism", which indicates that "the purpose of the party's purpose or the party's behavior intentionally destroys or overthrows the basic order of freedom and democracy, or intentionally endangers the survival of the German Federal Republic.The political party is judged by the Federal Constitution Court. "The Federal Constitution Court also banned the German Socialist Empire and the Communist Party of Germany in 1952 and 1956.However, in recent years, German officials have been very restrained on the use of "banning political parties".
Alternative Selection Party is no longer a small party
In 2017, the Democratic Party of the German Right Political Party (now known as the "Motherland") has always been hostile to the German Basic Law and has a close relationship with the Naziism.In the end, the Constitution Court rejected the ban on the grounds that "not enough to pose a threat to democratic constitutional government".
Different from the National Democratic Party, the alternative selection of the party has the possibility of governing and is no longer a small party on the edge.In December last year, the other party gave birth to the first mayor, and received about 22%of the support in the poll of the second half of last year, second only to the CDU.According to the current development trend, another choice party may gain a governing position in the future, which truly threatens Germany's democratic constitutional order.
Karl Popper, a famous philosopher born in Austria, had a well -known Paradox of Tolerance. If you want to maintain the tolerance of society, you cannot tolerate those who are not tolerant, otherwise there will be no way toKeep a tolerance and open society.Later American political philosopher Rose also believed that in order to ensure the tolerance of society and to protect themselves, he could also ban uncomfortable remarks and behaviors.
The Potsdam conspiracy of the other party and political allies has been within the scope of defense democracy, but the alternative selection of the party's rise has deep social contexts, such as the contradictions of West Germany and East Germany, the society brought by immigrants brought about by immigrants.The problem, and some German grassroots became losers in the global wave.None of these are solved by parties.Thorsten Frei, a member of the CDU, said: "The polls such as the other party will be so high, and there must be a reason for insulting voters." He believes that the German government wants to solve the root cause of the problem and formulate it.Really good policy.
