Revelations that members of Germany's far-right AfD discussed mass deportation plans have pushed tens of thousands of people to protest and sparked debate on whether the anti-immigrant party should be banned.
From Cologne to Leipzig to Nuremberg, Germans across the country have poured into the streets over the last week, with another 100 demonstrations expected through the weekend.
Many of the demonstrations have been held under the banner "together against the far-right", with Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock also joining a spontaneous gathering in Potsdam, where they live.

The people who vote AfD don't follow the mainstream conservative media, so probably don't even know there are protests, like Trump supporters who follow news outlets that support Trump. It would help if, for example, a number of famous football teams were brought in to promulgate a more inclusive message. That would likely be more effective than a few minutes on the ARD or ZDF News.
