Note how that only makes it seem like the German “left” isn’t left, not that they are talking about some weird fringe group that has nothing to do with the actual left.
Did you? Only read the title? It really no longer is ‘only some weird fringe group’. Their ideas permeate society. Even 5 years ago ‘anti-deutsche’ leftists could smear leftist activists criticising Israel+NATO’s crimes against humanity as antisemite conspiracy theorists in newspapers and defamation cases would go in your favour.
Oh, I read it. But I couldn’t take it serious as it’s just the usual anti-german (pun not intended but inevitable) bullshit written every other day. I know that’s a very popular fairy tale but you can’t read 5% of that article before coming to gems like “radically Islamophobic views on the Israel-Palestine conflict have become mainstream” and just laughing about it knowing to take everything in it with a truck load of salt. So maybe you should reference something else than a single publication that from the tone would normally be found with the usual British trahs media subjects.
Note how ‘left’ is in quotation marks in the title.

Do you have personal experience with German left culture?
