"Pickpockets, scammers and con artists are stealing money from the pockets of Berliners and especially our unsuspecting tourists," reads the call for a demonstration on the Telegram channel of the far-right German Youth Voran. However, the demonstration was registered by the Berlin branch of Heimat - formerly the NPD - as the police reported on request. The youth organization of the neo-Nazi party, the Young Nationalists, are also mentioned in the call. The campaign demonstrates the now close connection between older neo-Nazi cadres and young right-wing extremists. Political scientist Alexander Ritzmann [CEP Senior Advisor] sees this alliance as a result of the crisis that Die Heimat has been in for years. This is expressed above all in declining membership figures. Deutsche Jugend Voran, on the other hand, which was founded last year, was also looking for orientation.
