What an embarassing and also simultaneously scary threshold for Germany to pass.

It's like they saw everything that's happened with Trump, and said "That's what I'm talking about!"

I do wonder how many of the voters are true Nazis and how many are just disillusioned and blindly harbouring faith in an alternative

That's why it worked the first time.

All of them. A nazi does not need to label themselves a nazi to be a nazi.

You also don't have to be Himmler to be a nazi. Nazi starts way earlier.

Just do what Denmark did and rhe AfD will lose almost all their support. It's pretty obvious.

Germany was never denazified, they just stayed hidden.

Yep, people do not realize how true that is. The only thing that kept the illusion up is that it was culturally not acceptable. Now that it is again, they can blandly support the thing (NSDAP, AfD, …) again.
