The german politicians have definitely failed on immigration politics and energy politics, which is part of what is driving this. It's unfortunate that german voters don't at least have something a bit more normal to turn to. Banning LGBT flags, Auschwitz student trips and mandating Russian classes in school doesn't seem like a good solution for anything, neither does rebuilding North Stream.
As someone who comes from a country that has been victim to the powerful german war machine more than once, it is also a bit uncomfortable to hear these people say germans should be proud of said military accomplishments.
