[Domestic Policy] Me Ne Frego - where does it come from 2019-01-19

The fascists in Italy of the 20th century did not enforce their goals by democratic means but by force. Under Benito Mussolini the black shirts not only spread fear and terror but also murdered political opponents. The rise of the fascists in Italy with violence against those who think differently is thus a valuable lesson from history. If a society does not protect the rights of individuals who think differently, then it paves the way to go against all those who think differently. Over several years the population has become accustomed to the violence of the Blackshirts and now provide a valuable lesson from history along with their motto:
Me ne frego
I don't give a damn
In Bremen the MP of the AfD Frank Magnitz was almost beaten to death. The attack triggered a moderate scandal. However it was neither an isolated case. There is a long list of minor events and public calls until this escalation occurred.

On May 24, 2018 the police announced that they had been investigated for a possible attack on the car of the member of parliament of the AfD Anton Friesen. Friesen was at a civil dialogue meeting in the Thuringian town of Zella-Mehlis. When he returned from the event he and his colleague noticed a shaking on the vehicle and found that the wheel nuts on the car were loosened. [1] [2]

In October 2018 there were repeated attacks on Rigaer street in Berlin. First there was a discussion round about rising rents for protests and threats. The city council Florian Schmidt was threatened the next time to be attacked next time and followed on foot. After that police vehicles were repeatedly attacked with paving stones. And after a major raid residents of the searched homes called for violence against police officers on the website indymedia. In a letter they threaten both the lawyer of the homeowner and the police: [3] [4] [5] [6]
Sie alle sollten sich demnächst zweimal umdrehen!
All of you should turn around twice soon! [6]
The owners of a Leipzig inn were victims of vandalism on November 9, 2018 because a party convention of the Leipzig AfD was supposed to happen there. The perpetrators devastated the inn by smashing windows and distributing tar paint everywhere. The damage was estimated to be about 55,000 euros. On the left scene portal indymedia a letter of confession appeared in which the attack is in all seriousness described as a militant contribution for an active commemoration of the crimes of fascism. This may well be seen as an example of the value the working class still has for som leftists. [7] [8] [9] [10]
Der Anschlag ist ein kleiner kämpferischer Beitrag für ein aktives Gedenken an die Verbrechen des Faschismus. [10]
Since the summer the doctor's office of a physiotherapist in the Berlin district Neukölln became victim of vandalism. Leaflets are distributed, the house wall and the entrance area have been smeared several times and physicians are warned not to transfer patients into the allegedly racist doctor's office. The doctor's office was taken over by the previous owner of the district council of AfD Wolfgang Holzhausen. Now Holzhausen is neither owner nor partner nor employee in the doctor's office. And even the new owner has nothing to do with the AfD. The Antifa is not interested in this at all. [11]

On December 20, 2018 a police officer was seriously injured because he wanted to ensure order at an event of the AfD in Cologne. The AfD had invited to a civil dialogue in Cologne then a meeting was registered in front of the building. However the demonstrators ran to the podium chanted slogans and unrolled banners. In an attempt to lead the demonstrators off the stage the policeman was knocked off the stage and then sent to a hospital. [11] [12] [13] [14]



In the Hambach Forest between Cologne and Aachen there have been repeated attacks on police and RWE employees in recent months. Left-wing extremists attacked security men of the energy company RWE in the Hambacher Forst on the night of Christmas Eve to the first day of Christmas. As the police Aachen announced the hooded extremists threw with Molotov cocktails and stones. Two vehicles were caught on fire and two others were damaged by stones. The police were only able to bring the situation under control with numerous officials and a helicopter. The criminal investigation department has opened investigations on suspicion of violent breaches of the peace, willful arson and dangerous assault. [15] [16]

And this is just a symbolic selection of moderate incidents since the beginning of the second half of 2018. No incident has caused a public scandal. The reaction was always:
Me ne frego
I don't give a damn
It begs the question of who provokes or even protects these people. Angela Marquardt is a member of the Social Democrats and managing director of the think-tank Arbeitskreises Denkfabrik (working group think-tank). Marquardt has publicly advertised the collaboration with the Antifa in the Party Gazette of the Social Democrats. A regular platform is also the website indymedia. On indymedia among others a call to the left appeared to arm themmselves. Nevertheless or because of that is why indymedia is repeatedly defended. The left party considers the ban on the indymedia precursor unjustified and intends to protect indymedia. [17] [18] [19] [20]
besser sind gaspistolen. sie haben magazine mit über 15 patronen. in der kammer findet eine patrone ebenfalls platz. bei einer konfrontation mit faschos hat dies mehr wirkung auf den feind. wenn man einmal dabei ist zu schiessen, macht es sinn das magazin leer zu schiessen und so schnell als möglich zu flüchten. beim laden des magazin sollten lieber keine fingerabdrücke auf den patronen sein. also fasst die pfefferpatronen nur mit haushaltshandschuhe an.
ein aufgesetzer schuss aus einer gaspistole auf einen nazi am kopf oder am herz ist sofort tödlich. da braucht es keine umstände um legal oder nicht an eine scharfe pistole ranzukommen.

better are gas pistols. You have magazines with over 15 cartridges. one cartridge also finds place in the chamber. in a confrontation with fascists this has more effect on the enemy. once you're about to shoot it makes sense to empty the magazine and flee as fast as possible. when loading the magazine one should rather leave no fingerprints on the cartridges. so only handle the pepper cartridges with household gloves.
a shot from a gas pistol on a nazi on the head or on the heart is immediately fatal. thus there is no need to get a sharp pistol legal or not. [18]
But the accusation of the takeover of Germany by right-wing extremist can be put in the realm of myths and legends. The right-wing extremist violence decreased from 1,600 incidents in 2016 to 1,054 in 2017. Of them 774 had a xenophobic background and 98 were directed against left-wing extremists or alleged left-wing extremists. The number of extremists with right-wing potential increased from 24,350 in 2016 to 25,250 in 2017. [21,S.24] [21,S.26] [21,S.27] [21,S.102]
By contrast left-wing extremist violence increased from 1,201 incidents in 2016 to 1,648 in 2017. Of them 264 were directed against right-wing extremists or alleged right-wing extremists and 1,135 were directed against police or security agencies. By contrast the number of extremists with right-wing potential increased from 29,400 in 2016 to 30,400 in 2017. Even without an increase in left-wing extremist violence they would have overtaken the right-wing extremist violence. [21,S.31] [21,S.33] [21,S.34] [21,S.49]

It is striking that the political opponent is no longer perceived as a human being. The AfD has become an exaggerated stereotype. An exaggerated stereotype that is necessary to justify the attacks and riots. The left rages against alleged Nazis. And more and more it becomes clear that it is fighting for itself and for the sake of its own.
