It's just shocking to see that so far, each person killed in Germany by terrorist attacks translated to ~1% of AfD votes. I hope this won't extrapolate up to 100%.

They say "resist the beginnings", but it seems all kinds of resistance in recent weeks has only helped them to grow stronger. Things seemed a lot better when nobody talked about them and they just shared their extremely hateful thoughts among themselves, without anyone reporting on them. It's the Trump effect, I guess.
