    In one clip, Neumaier was seen singing the Nazi-era German national anthem along with …

    I find this more so much more disturbing

          More or less. The Deutschlandlied) is the hymn of Germany since before the Nazi era, wasn’t changed by the Nazis and still is today. But today only the third stanza is officially the hymn. However, people often sing the first one, which is the most well known.

          During the Nazi era, there were a second hymn, which is more directly linked to this ideology.

            Correction: Nazis - and only nazis - often sing the first one.

              Are you sure? I may be wrong, it wouldn’t be the first time, but I have the impression that people sing easily “Deutschland über alles”.

              (For context, I never lived in Germany, but always near the border, so I have sometimes a distorted vision of what occurs there)

            The “Horst-Wessel-Lied”, also known by its opening words “Die Fahne hoch”, was the anthem of the Nazi Party from 1930 to 1945. From 1933 to 1945, the Nazis made it the de-facto co-national anthem of Nazi Germany, along with the first stanza of the “Deutschlandlied”. The “Horst-Wessel-Lied” has been banned in Germany and Austria since the end of World War II.

              Yes. But this politician sang the Deutschlandlied, not the Horst-Wessel-Lied.

                  I unfortunately saw the video on a shady French site when I searched for his name (here; you can click, but it’s not very interesting and you’ll have visited an alt-right website).

    Martin Neumaier, The Free Democratic Party (FDP) candidate for the district of Ostalb

    Licking toilets is a fetish with no other people involved or harmed. Gross is an understatement in this case but whatever.

    Much bigger problem is fdp, those are a highly professionalised bunch of assholes who systematically destroy democracy and sense of community in Germany. They are a threat to the country like cdu and afd.

    Kinda feel like they’re burying the lede on the whole Hitler shitstache situation. That seems worse than any toilet bowl and brush licking.

    Reading the title, I wasn’t sure if it was a sex thing or if he was demonstrating the cleanliness of German public toilets.

      Trust me, most German public toilets are disgusting. Railway station toilets aren’t even free and a lot of them suck. The ones within a train? Even more disgusting. (If you’re lucky enough to find one that’s not closed for repair anyway.)

    I want to know, because I’m only human, but I also don’t want to click and have this in my FBI guy’s file on me…

      You gotta be more considerate to your FBI guy. You’re probably boring as fuck, give them something interesting to read!
