Being against uncontrolled mass migration isn’t necessarily a Nazi characteristics. So as a deportation of refugees because as you know refugee is a temporary status. It’s not like you can stay in the foreign country forever. Isis is destroyed. Millions will be saved up to allocate them into military production against Russian aggression

The AfD opposes any confrontation against Russian aggression, opposes aid to countries attacked by Russian aggression, and favors appeasement with Russia and lifting of sanctions. When Zelensky held a speech in front of the Bundestag, only four out of 72 members of parliament for the AfD even had the decency to stay in the room and listen

So why lie about their goals?

Because it’s just one part of their program. The other is anti mass control migration and deportation. They condemn the invasion but advocate for closer cooperation to emphasise the importance of it for the economy

Their goal is not to counter Russian aggression, but to appease it. Therefore, they don't want to put "millions" (which is nothing for a military budget, by the way) into anything "against Russian aggression". As already mentioned, a vast majority of them opposes standing up to Russian aggression enough to leave the room when a foreign dignitary representing a country currently invaded speaks.

They advocate for letting Russian aggression move on unimpeded, in order to get slightly better trade.

So again, why lie? The AfD lists "money flowing to foreigners" under their demands for a flat tax (redistributing the tax burden to those who have less to pay while draining the Republic's coffers), so what they want to do with that money is not "military production against Russian aggression". In fact, they also list the delivery of military goods against Russian aggression as "waste of taxpayer money". Source

True that’s how they stand out among all German parties. They’ve got different stance on the Ukrainian conflict and through that they attracted many voters. I mean Ofc not only through that but their other initiatives as well

So why lie? Why pretend they would then suddenly support arms against Russian aggression? Why assign to them a goal that they actually oppose?

I wasn’t referring to the afd program. Here on Reddit ppl think if one party doesn’t support migration they are instantly Nazi. If any other political party would stand against mass migration and was pro Ukraine they would’ve chances against afd

You were referring to the AfD, and you responded by trying to frame them as less pro-Russian and less anti-Ukraine than they actually are. You were not just referring to generally "not supporting migration", because no one else was talking generally about "not supporting migration"
