No the general climate is not like that. 13 % voted AfD means 87% of all Germans didn't vote them.

I mean the majority of Germans are still very loving and kind, but the AfD is very right. If they keep growing, then yes, but right now it's still a very tolerating nation.

No way the AfD will manage to get more than 20% of the vote... let's also remember that 2015 refugee crisis is still fresh in the memory, and that there will inevitably be infighting between actual nazi's and the more 'normal' far-right in the party like earlier this year. 

 

What I think Germany needs now is wage growth for lower incomes and more stimulus-orientated policy for better purchasing power and more public investment-led growth. But no way that's going to happen with FDP and CDU/CSU in government. Anyways, I think there's a fair chance that AfD-like parties will be a constant factor in the Bundestag from now on, be it at 7% of votes or 15%.

Agreed, but we never know when the next act of terrorism is going to take place and how that is going to affect the population. It really just takes one crisis to use fear mongering tactics and gain votes. Wage growth for lower incomes could definitely help nullify that, but I don't see it happening either.

Yes I have personally experience the amazing love from Germans, but I was just slightly paranoid, with all this and also that I haven't been everywhere, so I wouldn't know how people are in different places.

But that's one thing I found is that's one you speak their language fluently, like very well, they're like humbled in a way, and treat you like family :giveup: which is so sweet :giveup:

Not at all. You're safe, especially in metropolitan areas. Don't let the meltdown here affect your future plans in the slightest. The chances of you experiencing actual racism or homophobia in Germany are quite low.

Unless you live in Bavaria, then they're pretty high and have always been obnoxiously high.

I'm actually starting to get paranoid on which people that I surround myself with are AfD supporters and just don't open their mouths.
