> AfD is not democracy. AfD is antidemocracy even if it would get elected democratically.

Here's a fun thing language-game to try: expand your definition of "democracy" to encompass your partisan political positions, don't tell anyone, yell from the rooftops that your opponents are "anti-democratic" and banning them is "democratic."

Then observe how you only convince yourself of your own righteousness, and further alienate the people you wished to persuade.
