The above tweet from Germany’s AfD party is machine-translated into English as follows:
Congratulations to #Pirna! #AfD candidate Tim #Lochner was elected the first AfD mayor there, far ahead of his competitors. Thanks to the many voters who made this historic result possible for the AfD!
So, the AfD won a mayorship.
Here is more on that:
18 December 2023
The right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party has won a mayoral election for the first time, with candidate Tim Lochner making history in the Saxon town of Pirna. The victory comes less than two weeks after regional authorities designated the AfD as “extremist.”
The AfD has enjoyed rising support among German voters in recent months, at a time when the approval ratings of all three parties in the country’s ruling ‘traffic light’ coalition have hit record lows.
Lochner, an independent candidate who represented the AfD, garnered 38.5% of the vote in the second round of voting on Sunday, ahead of Christian Democratic Union (CDU) contender Kathrin Dollinger-Knuth on 31.4%. …
In October, the AfD recorded its best-ever performance in a western German state, receiving 18.4% of the vote in the Hesse regional election.
Many in Germany are concerned about the rise of the AfD.
It is an anti-Islamic migrant party that also does not like the European Union much.
Former German and Economics Minister, Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg was asked about the rise of AfD last month in an interview article titled: Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg: Ich habe mit meinem damaligen Scheitern Frieden geschlossen 11/13/23 (URL: https://www.augsburger-allgemeine.de/politik/interview-karl-theodor-zu-guttenberg-ich-habe-mit-meinem-damaligen-scheitern-frieden-geschlossen-id68462711.html). The following was machine-translated the German into English over Google:
Here we end up with the AfD, which is using all sorts of verbal blows and baiting calls to win more and more people over to its side, even increasingly young people clever marketing via the social platform TikTok.
Guttenberg: What this party has really understood is how to use social media, including for its right-wing extremist purposes. This sometimes happens in a perfidious form. I am very surprised that the centrist parties have not heard this gong yet. They would have to use social media more creatively and intensively in order to reach the broader population.
Can this at least slow down the AfD’s rise to popularity?
Guttenberg: I’m not giving up hope. In particular, it is important to convince young people of alternatives in the democratic center. So I was surprised that Mr. Gysi and I, two comparatively old farts, achieved millions of views with our podcast on TikTok. I couldn’t believe the number, we haven’t been doing this for long. The example shows that you can also reach young people with other content. We don’t have to run into the bushes, intimidated and shocked, out of fear of the AfD. We can resist it. Even after the AfD’s recent electoral successes, we must not allow ourselves to be paralyzed and overwhelmed. On the other hand: How many wake-up calls should the centrist parties get before they act and counteract the AfD? The worst thing would be if we allowed ourselves to be paralyzed. Because that’s exactly what this party is counting on. We all have to act, not just politicians.
Despite concerns from those that want a more powerful European Union, the AfD has been rising as more Germans are becoming sympathetic to its views.
As reported here before (see First they banned burqas, now abayas and the AfD is making gains–change is going to happen in Europe), the AfD wants out of the EU or at least for it to change.
The AfD also wants a stronger German military with German interests of top priority.
The AfD is also not thrilled with being occupied by US troops.
The AfD wants a better relationship with Russia.
The AfD says Islam is not German and that there should be less Islamic immigrants allowed in the country.
While the AfD has its own problems, its rise is demonstrating that Germans are becoming less tolerant of foreign-born migrants than many thought.

AfD: Prelude to a Hitler Beast?
Germany’s Alternative für Deutshland (Alternative for Germany in English) party celebrated its 10th anniversary on February 6, 2023.
It objects to:
❌More illegal migration
❌More asylum abuse
❌More crime
❌More housing shortage
❌More Cancel CultureThe AfD also asserts, “Now it’s time to change that. And that’s only possible with us.” Many are concerned that the AfD’s growing political influence will impact Germany. Can a strong man worse than Adolf Hitler, that the Bible calls the Beast rise up from Germany? Could Europe reorganize with a small backing to put this leader into place? Does the AfD want to make a deal with Russia? Will Germany make a future deal with Russia that would be opposed to the USA? Does the AfD want religion involved to meet its objectives in such a way that it could support the coming King of the North Beast power that the Bible warns will arise in Europe? Could Europe unite under such a leader according to scripture? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel go over these matters.
Here is a link to our video: AfD: Prelude to a Hitler Beast?
The rise of AfD reminds some of pre-WWII Germany.
We are getting closer and closer to WWIII.
