First of all I agree wholeheartedly that the racist hooligans that instigated violence before the game and the slogans they chanted are absolutely despicable.

However the attacks against the Fans were not even indiscriminately against all fans (not just the hoolingans) but they were explicitly against Jewish people. Multiple reports from the situation after the game state how people were explicitly attacked for being Jewish. I don’t know how else to frame this than as an antisemitic attack.

The last time they tried to ban a party in Germany was the NPD (another Nazi party) and at the end the Supreme Court decided the reason not to ban them, even though they were clearly unconstitutional , was because they were to few/insignificant (in the end they banned them from receiving party funding which still has a massive effect).

So you couldnt ban them because they were to small and you can’t ban the AfD because they’re to big? Just because enough people vote for a party doesn’t mean they’re not unconstitutional.

Like I stated in another comment banning them won’t be a solution but it will harm them and the fascist movement (just cutting their funding will do a lot).

But yes there’s a bigger problem with the growing right-wing tendencies in the society that needs more than this to be addressed

Most of your points were already correctly dismantled. But I’d just like to ad to

In a democracy where some 30% vote nazi, banning them won’t solve anything. Anything.

Is a sentiment I often feel too. I believe that we have to do so much more to fight against Fascists than just Vote and “use the democratic system correctly”. (I.e. fight fascism in the streets, offer actual political solutions to peoples problems…). But to say this won’t do anything is a huge understatement.

Banning the AfD will:

1. Disband the party leaving them in shambles to reorganize
2. Stop the money flow which is going to the AfD (and in turn to other right wing groups
3. Finally delegitimize the AfD and their main actors in a Democratic setting

A ban would be an amazing feat but it would just be a little breather in the fight against fascism.

If it’s suspended I usually open my laptop. If its just locked/screen off I put in my password and press enter because GDM doesn’t need to be first “woken up” before entering the password.

So it’s “the first letter in my password” which is …
