    From a DW article from 2020:

    One Golden Dawn supporter was sentenced to life imprisonment after he confessed to the 2013 fatal stabbing of left-wing rapper Pavlos Fyssas, whose mother, Magda, was in court to hear Thursday’s decision.

    Last week the court found the Golden Dawn leadership guilty of operating the party as a criminal organization and ordering thugs to attack left-wing activists, migrants and Egyptian fishermen, as well as other perceived foes.

    Damn, that’s a lot more direct than what I know of popular German neo-nazi parties.

      It‘s a lot more direct in terms of dealing with them. Because Germans simply… doesn‘t. Meanwhile the AfD has more convicted violent criminals with a mandate than any other party in Germany. I have no doubt they have a basement full of corpses.
