    They are far right wing, and the AFD state division of Thüringen is considered extremist and is under surveillance of the Verfassungsschutz (domestic intelligence services). They have a lot of proven Nazis in their ranks and the party leadership does absolutely nothing against it.

    So IMHO it’s safe to use the blanket term Nazis for the AFD, although they of course don’t see themselves as such.
