German Government Moves To Ban Dissent - Haven't They Been Here Before?

 

Germany's coalition government is in deep trouble, as we reported a couple of weeks ago. Polls, for what they're worth, show that chancellor Olaf Scholz’s ‘traffic light’ coalition of the Social Democrats, Greens and Free Democrats – is the least-popular government since surveys began in 1997. Given that a staggering 76 per cent of Germans polled say they are dissatisfied with its performance, it might well be the least-popular administration since the Second World War.

It is not difficult to understand why the coalition of opponents is failing. With German industry is in  decline, communities are being bankrupted by their obligation to provide for thousands of illegal immigrants, and there has been a disproportionate increase in violent crime against women, Jews and gay people, which we have also reported in the past. Life for the average German is getting worse, although it is only fair to point out that the previous administration, led by Angela Merkel, left things in a mess and the coalition has mererly continued the policies that increased the debt burden and made German voters turn against the once unasssailable Merkel.

Widespread discontent with the current administration reached a climax in January this year, when German farmers took to the streets and hundreds of slow moving tractors and agricultural vehicles  brought the centre of capital city Berlin to a standstill in protest against tax hikes and unworkable green regulations on agriculture. The government, backed by far left sections of news media, did its best to groundlessly tarnish these protests as vehicles for the ‘far right’ but this backfired because Germans recognise the difference between common sense and ideology. Government attempts to smear the protesters and the AfD (Alternative for Deutschland), now the largest 'right of centre' party, and serious suggestions that AfD should be banned as a threat to democracy only reinforced the sense of popular anger.

Then, in late January a scandal broke involving members of the populist AfD party. Investigative journalists at Correctiv magazine revealed that senior AfD aides attended a ‘secret meeting’ with various (unnamed) figures from the so-called new right. Attendees allegedly discussed, among other things, proposals for mass deportations of migrants including people born in Germany who are descendents of migrants.

Members of the two far - left parties in the coalition, The Social Democrats and The Greens were quick to call for the AfD to be declared a threat to democracy and banned from political activity in Germany, thus proving it is they who are a threat to democracy and instead of being discredited by the smears, AfD became more popular.

 The AfD had quickly distanced itself from these proposals and sacked the few low ranking aides in attendance. Since then, the story has largely unravelled. New evidence suggests that Correctiv’s claims about the deportation ‘plot’ were an least an exaggeration and more likely a fabrication. 

However, the governing coalition, supported by mainstream media, was determined not to let this scandal fade away. The idea of banning the populist, centre - right party in  the name of combatting right-wing extremism was just too appealingto parties that have alienated the electorate by pursuing globalist policies such as 'nat zero' to the detriment of Germany's prosperity. Anti-AfD rallies were held across Germany, with one in Potsdam near Berlin even attended by Scholz himself. Several government figures, cheered on by the mainstream media, restated their calls to ban the AfD outright.

Most reminiscent of a certain socialist party back in the 1930s, the government has seized this opportunity to push its divisive Democracy Promotion Bill, a modern version of the notorious 'Enabling Act,'. Despite its name, and in the style of Orwellian doublethink, this proposal actually seeks to curtail democracy, free speech and party competition, and enable the government to ignore the democratic process and do what it wants. Somehow the SDP and Greens think this will work in their favour although the FDP are very sceptical of it, having seen their own popularity nosedive as a result of the coalition's authoritarian governance. 

One of the provisions of the bill would allow the government to allocate more funding to bodies combatting what it deems to be ‘extremism’. Among the projects promised more money are the so-called Meldesysteme. These are online reporting portals that allow people to report their fellow citizens for saying supposedly unacceptable ‘right-wing’ things, such as that there are only two sexes or that transwomen are men.

This bill has been denounced by politicians across Germany’s political spectrum. Wolfgang Kubicki, vice-president of the German parliament and a member of the clasical liberal FDP, has called it an attack on freedom of expression. Mathias Brodkorb, a former minister for the Social Democrats in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, has denounced it as a ‘disgrace for democracy’.

The FDP coalition partner is now threatening to quit government and trigger and election (or possible encourage the SDP / Green partners to ban all opposition and declare themselves as the government in perpetuity in order to 'protect democracy'

Family minister Lisa Paus of the Green Party has defended the Democracy Promotion Bill, and the online reporting portals in particular. She claims these are necessary to establish ‘criminal liability’ for expressions of so-called hate speech. This is a deeply disingenuous argument. It is difficult to escape the impression that, far from fostering democracy, Germany’s government is has set itself on a course to eliminate opposition
