Massive demonstrations against right -wing extremism: a sign of unity!

On April 2, 2025, numerous demonstrations against right -wing extremism, hatred, anti -Semitism and agitation are underway in Germany. These protests are not only in the sign of resistance to right -wing extremists, but also in the context of the ongoing political disputes between the established parties and the AfD. Especially in big cities such as Berlin, where the rally "uprising of the decent - demo for the fire wall" recently took place, hundreds of thousands gathered to set an example for human dignity.

In Berlin, the organizers have been counted between 160,000 and 250,000 participants, which moved to the Reichstag building and to the CDU federal center. The publicist Michel Friedman criticized the Union's cooperation with the AfD in the Bundestag and emphasized that Hass means violence and must not be tolerated. These relationships are supported by the constitutional protection, which classifies the AfD as a right -wing extremist suspicion, in some federal states it is even considered secure right -wing extremist

Current protests and central topics

Last weekend protest campaigns took place, some of which were triggered by votes in the Bundestag about immigration measures in which the Union AfD gave a majority. In cities like Hamburg, around 65,000 people gathered under the motto "Hamburg is standing: Whoever pacts with fascists has nothing to do!" To set a clear sign against the rights.

In addition, the situation in Göttingen was tense, where counter-protests led to a cross-thinking demonstration to seat blocks and litter attacks, in which several police officers were slightly injured. In Neu-Isenburg, too, around 9,000 people protested against an AfD campaign rally. These developments illustrate the displeasure among the voters about the handling of the Union with the AfD, in particular the role of CDU boss Friedrich Merz, who, as a candidate for chancellor, faces challenges with regard to defense and infrastructure.
