I think that's absolutely right. The fact that the far right is also on the rise in other countries should not distract from the special responsibility of German citizens. Especially since many AFD voters often use this as an argument: "If other countries are nationalistic, why shouldn't we be?"

We all have to do what we can, where we can. I am not saying Germans are any worse than any one else. Fascism is an ideology and can grow anywhere.
