German pede here. This summer our Bundestag (comparable to your capitol) was stormed as well but there wasn't much reporting about it.
Most germans are fucking pissed
it has basically become a synonymous for that. there are some groups of people that have specific names which are used to discredit others. like when in the us someone is called "alt right conspiracy theorist".
in germany you are called a "Querdenker" or a "Reichsbürger" which is basically the same but on steroids
jokes aside, germany will probably never ever have any big uprising against anything, because as soon as germans speak out against something the mainstream finds a connection to racism and calls the germans that are speaking up "nazis".
its literally our single hidden weakness, the "N"-word. I find myself struggling against this weapon of massdestruction as well, there is just no counterplay to it from a german perspective
Parallels what happens in the US and UK, and probably others. Can't figure out how this simple tactic is sustainable. Anyone can find (or forge) such a link, while theoretically you could equally make links to existing political powers. On this website and alt-tech places there are probably loads of infiltrators that are purposefully distasteful and extreme to give ammunition to those who want to demonize opposition. I've heard this happening to a lot of competitors to Google services, I think pre-dating the Trump era, just as a business tactic. Like some image hosting service was gaining steam and all of a sudden someone uploads a lot of "dangerous" images and the bad press kills them.
Maybe early stages of a movement is the only time when such a tactic actually works, so establishing familiarity of the people in a movement might be the best countermeasure. Just guessing. It is a BS line of reasoning, so it may not adhere to any consistent rules.

Yes that is true, they are called "Querdenker" which roughly translates into "different thinkers" or "lateral thinkers".
I thought it roughly translated to “non-dickheads”. Either way, I’m rooting for my ancestral brethren to help bring Germany out of this dark age.
surprised your Fake News didnt outright use "wrong-thinkers" for protesting against their globalist god queen

All they need is a leader. They have already had many matches to light the spark.
that sounds... familiar

Call yourself the anti-NAZI party.
