Berlinale and AfD
The Berlinale Festival invited 2 AfD politicians to the opening on February 15th. They justify this invitation by saying that all parties are invited and have a contingent.
Yes, but not all parties advocate throwing out foreigners and non-German aliens out of the country either. And this can easily encompass Roma and Sinti, as well as Jews…
