The Bavarian State Association was founded in March 2013. The rallying movement of Eurosceptics has turned into a largely right-wing extremist party in which hatred and insults are part of the normal tone.

At the end of March, Augsburg town hall, the AfD city council faction invites you to the reception. The DJ plays a Ballermann classic, “Looking for Freibier”. Stephan Protschka orders still water. He doesn’t need beer to get up to temperature. Nothing is still about this man except the water. He has just delivered the speech, now he rips his tie out of his collar and undoes the top button of his shirt. Everyone in his party is said to be “right-wing extremist and Nazi,” says Protschka. “Shit!”
