Unfortunately the decades of suppressing the left since the Cold War and annexation of the GDR means an organized proletariat and a vanguard party has not emerged in Germany (though there is the DKP), hence the rise of the far-right. A socialist government like the GDR would correctly label these as nazis and would not have let the far-right grow to this point.

How do you know innocent people would not get included in the "Nazi" categorization? In america lots of people get called nazi that have no relationship to it.

If you're able to be mistaken for a nazi I'm not gonna cry for you.

You know, you don't seem to be the type of person they'd let in to the committee for hunting nazis, judging by how much you protest nazi hunting.
