Dispute for allegations: AfD and Linke in the courtroom of Stralsund

A explosive procedure takes place today at the Stralsund district court: at 1:00 p.m. the argument between AfD MP and the Left District Association of Vorpommern-Rügen is negotiated. The dispute revolves around the allegations that were raised against the AfD after they are said to have imitated the disease-related tremors of the left-wing politician Dirk Bruhn. Bruhn himself had previously referred to the AfD MPs as "human assholes", which further stirring the waves. [Stern] (https://www.stern.de/gesellschaft/mecklenburg-vorpommern/streit-aussagen-afd-verlich- against-linke-vorwuerfe ----s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-sverfe-html) reports that the AfD is now taking legal steps against the Linken district association after the lawsuit against Bruhn before the Herin Regional Court has failed. His presentation was not confirmed there.

The tensions between the parties are high. Bruhn, the left -wing member of the Left in the Schwerin state parliament, criticized the behavior of the AfD sharply in a heated debate in April. The mud fight shows how deep the trenches between the political camps in Germany have grown, especially in recent years. According to the [ZEIT] (https://www.zeit.de/news/2025-06/17/afd- VITIMBTE-FIGNE- Vorterwuerfe-Weiteres procedure), an early decision could be made today, while another court hearing in Rostock is scheduled for tomorrow, where the AfD should also be discussed against the left.

political turbulence and social pressure

In a time when right -wing populist parties such as the AfD in Germany gain influence, the question arises as to what extent the social climate also influence. An analysis by the Hans-Böckler Foundation shows that anti-democratic attitudes are now deep in the middle of society. Crisis situations, such as the Corona pandemic or the Ukraine War, are often used by these movements to stir up fears and create enemy images.

The study also shows that people with low income and precarious employment relationships are particularly attracted to right -wing populist ideologies. Statistics show that 61% of the AfD voters: inside conspiracy myths have agreed to corona pandemic, which clearly indicates an increasing polarization of society. In this context, the allegations between the AfD and the left are not only a political, but also a social phenomenon.

How the conflicts in politics have a effect on the everyday life of citizens: it remains to be seen. The political argument about the AfD and the left is only part of a larger image that shows how fragile democratic conditions can actually be and how important it is to overcome speechlessness between the different camps. It remains exciting which decisions are made in Stralsund today and what steps the parties will take next.
