The Berlin Wall was broken down almost thirty years ago. Before then, we
all made sarcastic jokes about its official designation by East German
(GDR) party leaders as “anti-fascist protective barrier”. We all knew
better why it was erected. But hearing racist ranting by AfD leaders now
hoping for victories and watching – or opposing – gangs of marching
thugs with barely–paraphrased Nazi slogans, from East Berlin to southern
Saxony, we must wonder if perhaps that scorned terminology also
contained just a bit of truth.
