German so-called “far-right” party AfD—which is electorally ascendant at the moment, to the consternation of the globalists—recently had its donation account frozen by a German bank following a petition filed by a group that bills itself as “Grandmothers Against the Right.”

Via European Conservative (emphasis added):

German bank Berliner Volksbank has closed the donation account of the right-wing antiglobalist opposition party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) following a petition by a group calling itself Grandmothers Against the Right (Omas gegen Rechts).

The group launched their petition in May, stating that the bank, which claims to stand for tolerance and against right-wing extremism, should not be allowed to accommodate an account for the AfD. The organisation handed over 33,500 signatures to the bank on Wednesday, July 3rd, to demand the termination of the account, and after meeting the chairman of the board of directors, Carsten Jung, Grandmothers Against the Right announced that their venture has been successful.

What befalls Europe and Canada today will inevitably come to the United States. While the U.S. is arguably further down the totalitarian rabbit hole than its Western peers in some respects, in terms of bedrock civil liberties it is still among the freest in the world.

You might recall a similar set of events that transpired a couple of years ago, in this case in Justin Trudeau’s (admitted admirer of China’s “basic dictatorship”) Canada when he had the trucker convoy participants’ bank accounts frozen.

Via Newsweek, Feb. 15, 2022 (emphasis added):

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Sunday vowed to freeze bank accounts of the truckers protesting his COVID-19 vaccine mandates, while the movement's fundraising website remained down.

Right-wing Christian fundraising site GiveSendGo remained down and the platform has not said anything for over 24 hours, despite the website and official page for the Canadian truckers appearing to be hacked and non-functional on Monday.

A leak website also said it received a cache of information, including donor details to the Freedom Convoy protest, after the fundraising site was targeted in a cyberattack on Sunday night.

Protesters had raised more than $8 million of funding to support their cause, as they blockade roads in the Canadian capital Ottawa. The protests, which have been associated with the anti-vaccination movement and the far-right*, have gathered momentum all over the world.

*This “far-right” label is so overused as to be meaningless at this point. When was the last time you simply saw the label “right” to describe anyone right of Pol Pot used in corporate state media?

“Far” is now a seemingly mandatory addendum to “right.” Marine le Pen of France did a great job of pushing back on CNN globalist hack Christiane Amanpour, who described her and her party as… and you’ll be shocked… “far-right.”
