buritobr:
Today, there is an aniversary. You Know Who became chancellor of Germany 90 years ago, after he was appointed by the president Hindenburg. His party had 1/3 of the votes in the November 1932 election, and won a plurality.

A reminder that there shouldn't be any cooperation with the far-right. The conservatives at the time helped to get him into power and thought they could control him, that he was in a sense their useful idiot. Turned out to be vise versa with horrible consequences.

Adolf Hitler was born in the catholic Austria, he received the catholic baptism, he started his political career in the catholic Bavaria, but his party did better in the most lutheran states.
Even before the Cold War divide of Germany, the KPD did better in the east. The NSDAP too. And today, Linke and AfD do better in the east than in the west.
