I havent seen any english Articles about this so Im giving you guys the Infos on this way.

Yesterday our conservative Party (CDU) has passed a suggestion for a law about immigration, which is a plan with 5 points, with the help of the liberals (FDP) and the far right facist party (AfD). Prior to this the CDU chancellor candidate Friedrich Merz has announced, that hes willing to pass this with the support of the AfD. This marks an official end to the so called “firewall against the far right”. This law includes, that immigrants who are seeking Asylum are no longer allowed to enter Germany and criminal immigrants who have to leave germany will be detained until they get deported or decide to leave germany by themselves.

The 5 points of the plan are the following:

  • Permament controls at the borders of the German Federal Republic (using the emergency provision of the Schengen Borders Code), de facto ending the free movement of European Citizens;
  • Blocking the access to the country to anyone not possessing adequate documentation (making it near impossible to come and request asylum);
  • Immediate sequestration of anyone required to leave the German soil, ordering the creation of special detention camps to keep up with the induced demand;
  • Request of active participation of the Bundesländer (regions) with information regarding the financing and support to create detention camps;
  • Tightening of the right of residence for offenders and dangerous persons: Offenders and dangerous persons who are obliged to leave the country should remain in an indefinite detention until they return to their home country voluntarily or their deportation can be carried out.

Thanks to @morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de for sharing this.

This law is probably illegal (its against our constitution). On Friday it is likely that more laws will be passed with the support of the AfD. The pro putin party (BSW) has also announced, that they are willing to support the laws.

Edit: it isnt a law that has been passed, but a suggestion. However, since the CDU and the AfD are about to be the two major parties it is likely that it will be turned into a law after the election.

Edit: Theres an English article about it by The Guardian

      This, but unironically. All fascist movements in Europe have copied the Trump media sphere, where it doesn’t matter how brazen the lie is, it only matters how confidently you present it and never accept wrongdoing. Similarly, while not as bad as in the US, for Germany at least, we also copied the US Democrats playbook of do-as-little-as-necessary, while the rich get richer and richer, which in turn has driven a majority of the people into poverty, which is one big reason why there is so much anger in society the fascists can capitalize on.

        Specifically, the conservative/fascist sphere has figured out, via brute testing, how to refine their “narative” stories and marketing of those stories, alongside with how to use social media for it (personalized messaging and astroturfing). They know how to hack the masses or at least the relevant electorate.

        How is this same as last time? The last time things were this bad were in fact in Germany in the 1930s & 40s. To my knowledge it hasn’t been as bad as it is now since that point. So tell me how last Trump presidency where all he did was try to pad his wallet is as bad as it is now. Last time he wanted to make himself rich, yet this time he wants to become actual hitler. Don’t get me wrong, I was made physically ill last time, but this is measurably worse because he has support from actual nazis to embolden him, a plan from actual nazis to deify him, and that plan will also make him a king. This is a serious issue, but nothing that has happened in America has been like this before, ever.
