I don’t know if these anti Nazi laws have ever been enforced in a rigorous manner. And most politicians are too afraid of doing it because the Nazis have growing support by the people. I’m pretty sure they could do more to fight the afd legally. But then again, they could also do more to satisfy voters, so they don’t vote for extremist. Both is never going to happen.
It is currently under legal review, though unfortunately caught up in Realpolitik and unlikely to go anywhere due to the government disbanding.
Fact is the center-right always has a bullshit reason to sit on their hands. They stopped the NPD review years ago saying they aren’t popular enough to be a threat. Now with AfD they say they’re too popular to be banned.
Institutions and laws are meaningless if they aren’t used as intended.
