The AfD WON/Strongest in former DDR, why?

(Pictured – AfD & SED Logos)

By: elDiablo

Editor’s Note: It is important for the Reader to note that this article is NOT an endorsement of the former East Germany (DDR), nor East German Communism.  In fact East Germany did NOT have a Communist Party.  The official Party in East Germany was the SED (Socialist Unity Party), a unification of the Social Democrats & the Communist Party

For Reference:

Afd = Alternative for Germany Party

CDU = Christian Democratic Union – Party of Angela Merkel

SPD = Social Democrat Party

SED = Socialist Unity Party (former Party of East Germany)

NSDAP = National Socialists

East Germany = DDR

Germany = FRG

 

The AfD

The AfD is hardly a reincarnation of the National Socialist German Workers Party. It was founded by a group of disgruntled members of the CDU who opposed the Euro and wanted to preserve the Deutsche Mark and never gained any traction on that issue.

In fact, the AfD has a lot in common with the SED of East Germany and has been the benefactor of the SED AND the 40 years of East Germany DDR, which ironically preserved the last vestiges of “Old Germany”

Unlike the East German SED, the  AfD is a Party that embraces Jews, Homosexuality, and everything decedent that the Western Allies did to West Germany, emphasis, everything decedent that the Western Allies did to West Germany. The AfD is stuck with German Federal Law on these issues, but it places homosexuals into its leadership.

Only when the AfD became a very vocal opponent of immigration did it become a “player” in German politics, first regionally where it hold 158 Seats in State Parliaments in the Regions comprising the former DDR  (East Germany), then in most recently in German Federal Elections when it won 92 Seats in the German Bundestag (Federal Parliament) the former Reichstag, all most exclusively based on overwhelming support, AGAIN from Regions in the former DDR. The AfD also has 1 Seat in the European Parliament.

WHY…… DDR was a preservation/continuation of “Pre 1945 Germany”

The answer to this is quite simple:

During the (Western Allied) Occupation, meaning U.S., British, & French Occupation of what was West Germany, they employed a comprehensive Policy of Cultural Genocide wherein all aspects of “German Social Cohesion” was obliterated under the auspices of “Denazification”.

Every decedent aspect (particularly American)  was imported into West Germany on a scale that made the old Weimar Republic look like a bastion of morality.

In West Germany, German’s ceased to exist and “Europeans” took their place.

Germans LOST their Cultural & Ethnic Identities in West Germany.

In the most overt act of Cultural Genocide, even the ancient German State of Prussia  (which predated those “evil” Nazis by Centuries) was abolished by order of an American Occupation Governor, NEVER to be reestablished by the West Germans OR Federal Republic of Germany.

After the formal end of the Allied Occupation, subsequent “West German Governments” carried on the Western Allied policies. West Germany and today’s Federal Republic of Germany has NO Constitution (Weimar Republic  DID and was in force throughout the National Socialist Government).  Germany today is governed by “Basic Law” which replaced the prior Weimar Constitution.  It must be noted Adolf Hitler and the National Socialists never suspended or voided the Weimar Constitution, the Western Allies did so in 1945. It should also be noted that the DDR also had an actual Constitution from 1948 until it was absorbed into today’s Federal Republic of Germany and its Constitution abolished.

Contrast West Germany & East Germany and you fully understand the AfD’s success

In the Soviet Zone, which became the DDR, there was no attack on German Culture & Identity.

FORMER NATIONAL SOCIALISTS: The Soviets & East Germans had an Association of former National Socialists which integrated former National Socialists into DDR Society.  Contrast that with the draconian “Denazification” process which purged all aspects of “Germanism” in the West.  Many former National Socialists, including those who had fought such as Vincenz Muller (one of many), former high ranking Wehrmacht Officers AND NSDAP Members who rose up the ranks in the East German People’s Army (General) and eventually to the Volkskammer (East German Parliament)

The U.S. CIA was even “concerned” at how ‘well” former NSDAP Party Members, Wehrmacht Officers & SS Officers were living in the DDR.

GERMAN IDENTITY & SOCIAL COHESION:  was encouraged under BOTH Soviet occupation & in the DDR.  Part of this has to do with the long tradition of Socialism in Germany. The first TWO General Orders implemented in the Soviet Zone in 1945/46 was to install GERMANS into Civil Positions, (YES Communists BUT also SPD Members as well) but GERMANS and Reopened Libraries (and unlike the Western Allies, did not destroy ALL books and replace them with Western Books), Schools (the prior Teachers in the East returned to work in most cases).  Theaters, and other Arts Facilities were reopened expeditiously and all administered by Germans.

CHRISTIANITY:  the DDR, embraced traditional German Christendom.  In fact, in the late 1980’s, the DDR even opened the doors to the “American” Mormon Church, a move this author considers a gross mistake.  Christmas was huge in the DDR and in fact the DDR manufactured what is today very collectable wooden Christmas toys.  Contrast this with the assault on Christianity in West Germany and today’s Federal Republic of Germany where the religion is “Secular-Humanism”.

Traditional “Christian” Holidays were ALL State Holidays in the DDR.

DDR WAS NEVER MULTI-CULTURAL: Unlike the Cultural Genocide which was being perpetrated in West Germany, which included the introduction of Multicultural Poison, no such indoctrination took place in the DDR.  In fact, the DDR was Anti-Semitic, the Stazi routinely issued Reports warning that Jews were the greatest threat to the East German Experiment, the DDR was very protective of its “Germaness”.  Unlike the mass importation of Turks which was taking place in West Germany in the 1950’s, the DDR attempted to do what National Socialist Germany had attempted in the 1930’s and achieve total self-sufficiency.

CONCLUSION:

The AfD is only a powerhouse in the former DDR Region because that Region of present day Germany that once comprised the former DDR is in reality a continuation of historical Pre-1945 Germany, relatively uninterrupted.  The fact that West Germany/ the Federal Republic of Germany largely ignored and neglected the former DDR Region since the 1991 “Reunification of “East Germany” & “West Germany” is a huge advantage and may well present the ONLY salvation to preserving “Germany”.

By “continuation”, I specifically mean, Germany having gone through the following Stages:

Confederation Pre-1871

German 1871-1918

Weimar 1918-1934

National Socialist Period 1934-1945

       (Occupied West Germany FRG) 1945-Present – Culturally Cleansed

DDR & Post DDR Region 1945 -Present

In the natural political and social progression and or history a Nation, it may experience differing forms of governance or cycles, as we see in the case of Germany.  However it is almost always exclusively done so on their terms and along some sort of their own progression.   The Weimar Republic was even done so by Germans and was never successfully overthrown. Yes, the WWI Victor’s called for the abdication of the Kaiser, but made no such demands beyond Wilhelm II and there had in fact been a head of steam building in Germany for some form of Republic for years.  Chancellor Otto von Bismark’s social programs ( in the 1880’s) were attempts to stave these efforts off.    The National Socialists achieved electoral victory by way of the Weimar Constitutional System.

1945 was the first time where outsiders discarded a Nation’s Cultural & Social DNA, as the Western Allies did in West Germany, and completely hardwired a Nation’s Cultural, Social and Ethnic Norms.

Today’s AfD are NOT the National Socialist’s of yesterday, in fact they are far closer to the SED (Socialist Unity Party) of the DDR.  Both were proud Germans, both were anti-multi-cultural and both embraced German traditions.
