EXPOSED: THE NEO-NAZI THREAT IN GERMANY
Summary
Tashi Holler discusses the rise of Germany’s far-right AfD, attributing its surge to decades of austerity and foreign interference from Russia and the US. He highlights the Merz government’s controversial ties to Project 2025 and the failure of centrist parties to address economic precarity. The conversation also covers the stalled efforts to ban the AfD, the suppression of anti-war speech, and the urgent need for independent media networks to counter mainstream bias in Europe.
