Reichsbürger movement aims to establish parallel societies by infiltrating schools, clubs and public offices
A strategic rural land grab by rightwing extremists is taking place across Germany with the concerted aim of creating communities independent of the state, according to the domestic intelligence agency and government ministries.
Authorities and NGOs monitoring far-right groups say the members of the Reichsbürger movement who reject the post-1945 German state are making a targeted effort to establish parallel societies and infiltrate existing structures including schools, clubs and public offices.
According to a recent request for information to the federal interior ministry by Martina Renner of the opposition leftwing Die Linke party, rightwing extremist organisations have bought 40 properties across Germany in the past two years.
Cult or otherwise, this is a farce in every way, but a dangerous farce nonetheless No different to how ISIS or the Nazi’s operated.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

Reads like the plot of a Tom Clancy novel.
Oh it’s the Burger-guys. They sound very funny. They want a return of German royalty and there’s a few guys claiming to be royals that have unpaid servants attending to them in mansions they bought.
Give it 5 mins and I’m sure a Germ will be in to clarify. Seem to be a lot of Krauts on Lemmy.
