Its a really concerning development. AfD at 20% is only 13 % less what the NSDAP needed to overturn democracy and peace in Germany

Far harder these days. Folk know about dangers of fascism and seems the 20% is about the peak these parties get.

In Finland minister from right wing coalition government had to resign only week in. He turned out to have written and spread literal nazi memes/jokes and attended neonazi events in recent past. The out rage was enough for him to quit even after he got confidence vote due to the coalition.
