“There are numerous AfD advertising items on Amazon – right next to fan material for right-wing extremists. Experts consider this form of election advertising to be highly problematic. Berlin – Shortly before the federal election, the online mail order company Amazon is being flooded with AfD promotional items . There are numerous T-shirts and hoodies with the party logo, buttons and stickers with slogans. We reported on AfD merchandise on Amazon a year ago, but one shop suddenly disappeared during our research . But new ones have been added: Often, shipping is done directly via the Amazon service “Merch on Demand”… Articles from other parties cannot be found on Amazon. Experts are extremely critical of this particular form of election advertising. Extremism expert Hans-Jakob Schindler, director of the Counter Extremism Project, told our editorial team: "The AfD is pursuing a normalization strategy. The technical term for remigration is 'ethnic cleansing'. And now the party is using it officially and it is being printed on merchandise. That is more than worrying."”
