Its not that the "far right" is rising, the numbers are noth worth speakig about, its more that at the same time the established "working class" parties fall extremly hard, just imagine back in the eraly 00s you were wondering how many percent over 40 you get and now you shaking not to fall under 15%. (The joke gets even funnier if you consider the 5% rule)
And all of this could have been prevented by simply following the law just a little more, than your average 9 to 5 guy would have stayed sedated enough to keep voting for the same cucks.

Germany is going to almost abolish the "solidarity tax" that benefited eastern Germany. To dumb statesmen this is probably a punishment (the east is almost all-AfD), but to the smarter ones this is accelerationism. I wouldn't be surprised if there was discreet money behind the rise of the alt right, dark enlightenment, and other things reactionary. Remember that Gladio was a set of elites that ended up using far-right elements to produce false flags against communism.

Abolished, yeah sure, they totally gonna give up on 12+ billion in taxes especially now that all those "Fachkräfte" have arrived (cuz you know all of them are going to pay soooo much income tax). They just going to rename and double it.
Why else do you think that now after its been debaded for over 20 something is "happening".
Your theory about money being behind the right is intresting, if true wonder what its supposed to acomplish, those powers dont just throw money at things.
