In a twist surprising absolutely nobody...

He informed the Nazis that he will collaborate.

This message will continue to be broadcast in various ways until cooperation in government is established.

Any vote for black in Germany is now a vote for Nazis in five or ten years. Talk to your older friends and family, make sure theye understand what is going on and maybe even cut contact if they don't change their voting habits.

How would that explain a description of a far right politician as center right?

Because if the window shifts further to the right, parties that were on the far right are now closer to the center.
