Okay, so you know how to copy and paste.Björn Höcke referred to Berlin’s Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe (the Holocaust memorial) as a “monument of shame” (“Denkmal der Schande”).
In a January 17, 2017 speech to the AfD’s youth organization (Junge Alternative) in Dresden, the AfD politician and Thuringia state leader said: “We Germans—that is, our people—are the only people in the world who have planted a monument of shame in the heart of their capital.” He linked this to broader criticism of Germany’s postwar “remembrance culture” (Erinnerungskultur), calling the focus on Nazi crimes a “stupid/laughable policy of coming to terms with the past” that “cripples” the country, leaves Germans with the “mentality of a totally defeated people,” and makes German history look “rotten and ridiculous.” He demanded a “180-degree turnaround in the politics of remembrance,” arguing for more emphasis on German achievements, inventors, philosophers, and victims rather than primarily on Nazi crimes and atonement.
The phrase is ambiguous in German: it can mean a memorial to a shame (the Holocaust as a national shame) or a shameful/disgraceful monument itself. Höcke later claimed in a personal statement that he meant the former—that he was calling the Holocaust itself a shame for the German people and that the memorial commemorated that—and expressed surprise at the reaction. Critics across the political spectrum, Jewish organizations (including the Central Council of Jews in Germany), and some within the AfD rejected this as disingenuous or insufficient, viewing the remark (in context of the full speech) as an attack on Germany’s established culture of acknowledging Nazi crimes, relativizing the Holocaust, and promoting historical revisionism or whitewashing. The speech triggered widespread condemnation, calls for his expulsion from the AfD (which ultimately failed), and later artistic protests, such as a replica of the memorial erected near his home.
This fits Höcke’s longer pattern of challenging mainstream German historical memory of the Nazi era, which he and his supporters frame as excessive self-flagellation that undermines national pride and identity. Mainstream German politics and society have treated the Holocaust memorial and the broader duty of remembrance as foundational to the postwar democratic consensus.
It's right there. He backtracked. What did he really mean? You tell me, mind reader.Okay, so you know how to copy and paste.
Again, What do you think he meant and I’ll correct you if you somehow don’t get it right.
Time to stop apologizing for something no one alive had anything to do with.It's right there. He backtracked. What did he really mean? You tell me, mind reader.
I understand that and agree. Perhaps he should have chosen better words.Time to stop apologizing for something no one alive had anything to do with.
Very well in the old East. Very different in the old West.How is the afD doing in the other areas of Germany?

Brian?Before you dismiss out of hand what Brian says he has gathered a lot of evidence for his continuity of agenda theory.....he has been right a lot on various subjects.
Nazi-Era Language: Individual AfD figures have faced heavy criticism for using terminology or rhetoric echoing the Nazi era. For example, senior politician Björn Höcke criticized Berlin's Holocaust memorial as a "monument of shame," and other members have used banned nationalist slogans or phrases.
Symbolic Timing and Pushback: Critics have pointed out provocative coincidences, such as national party events coinciding with historical anniversaries tied to Hitler's consolidation of power, which the party routinely dismisses as artificial controve.
Domestic intelligence services in Germany monitor parts of the AfD, classifying state chapters or the national party structure with varying degrees of extremist categorization. Investigations have highlighted connections between certain regional candidates and former neo-Nazi networks.
They stated more than once it is shameful to teach about the holocaust in german schools, look it up dummy
The far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party routinely challenges Germany's post-war consensus on Holocaust remembrance, with top figures downplaying Nazi crimes and criticizing the country's national atonement.
The Epstein Class does not know what to do in the face of this rebellion.This is fucking scary.
