Reichsbürger movement aims to establish parallel societies by infiltrating schools, clubs and public offices
A strategic rural land grab by rightwing extremists is taking place across Germany with the concerted aim of creating communities independent of the state, according to the domestic intelligence agency and government ministries.
Authorities and NGOs monitoring far-right groups say the members of the Reichsbürger movement who reject the post-1945 German state are making a targeted effort to establish parallel societies and infiltrate existing structures including schools, clubs and public offices.

Reads more like a delusional cult and painful nuisance rather than a serious threat to democracy. The guy thinks he’s an incarnation of an archangel.
I think that’s the way these always look before they succeed. Vigilance is important, though paranoia is harmful.
Agreed. We paid no attention to Trump and he’s spearheading these groups. You need to be vigilant from the start or else they’ll continue thinking you’re weak. Any corrective actions later seem like overreach and then they only gain MORE ground.
The techniques they’re using are real. Building parallel power structures is the way to usurp current power structures or build orginazational power. People on the revolutionary left know this too, but we tend to engage thay way through mutual aid over land grabs.
They seem to be focused on a parallel society because they’re fighting a culture war. My vision of parallel power structures are ones that meet material needs(think BPP breakfast program), not the want for a society to be more insular.(think Bundy and the rest of the talibanjo farmers)
That’s pretty spot on, no one takes these guys too seriously here. Also, Germany has a lot more rigid ways of defending its democracy against these kinds of subversions than most other countries, since it caused a lot of ruckus when that happened the last time - not sure if any of you history buffs are aware of an obscure figure called Hitler…
Ah yes. The big kerfuffle.
Wait, are we talking about Moses Mike Johnson?
Far-right is the biggest treat of our time and no politic cares.

hilarious typo
I guess my autocorrect want to threat me.
Climate apocalypse would like a word
As would many other interrelated things.

They do care but for the wrong reason (because it’s costing them votes) - so their solution is copying right-wing positions in an attempt to win back voters when that’s only normalizing their viewpoints
with the concerted aim of creating communities independent of the state
*grabs popcorn*
If these guys are anything like their US libertarian counterparts, they’re in for a beary good time.
Project “reinvent taxes” is always a hoot.
They arent like ours thems is bona fide Nazis
Let’s hope that they don’t start gaining funding from international sympathizers.

Most of Europe’s far right is supported by Russia.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
A strategic rural land grab by rightwing extremists is taking place across Germany with the concerted aim of creating communities independent of the state, according to the domestic intelligence agency and government ministries.
Authorities and NGOs monitoring far-right groups say the members of the Reichsbürger movement who reject the post-1945 German state are making a targeted effort to establish parallel societies and infiltrate existing structures including schools, clubs and public offices.
According to a recent request for information to the federal interior ministry by Martina Renner of the opposition leftwing Die Linke party, rightwing extremist organisations have bought 40 properties across Germany in the past two years.
German authorities announced that a separate armed rightwing extremist Reichsbürger group headed by the self-appointed Heinrich XIII, Prince Reuss, had planned a putsch, intending to storm the Bundestag, kidnap MPs and topple the state.
Carola Gundlach, the mayor of Rutenberg, did not respond to requests for an interview, but at a meeting between regional and state representatives from the interior and education ministries and the police, she reportedly said she was taking the situation seriously.
Continuing attempts to prosecute him would not dissuade him from fulfilling his vision to “serve God and humanity” and to free Germans from a “postwar minority complex” based on a “massive guilty conscience” relating to the crimes perpetrated by Nazi Germany, he said.

Sounds like a long overdue independence movement.
Independence from oppressive ideas such as (but not limited to) critical thinking, logic and reasoning.
Fuck off Nazi
Bruhh… Either stop with the drugs you are using or start taken them again
