    Give me a bit, I’ve been busy, and it’s hard to find primary sources in languages I don’t speak.

      What primary source did you use to determine that the poster was a fake whenever you made that claim? You should just post that.

        I’m not the one making the claim. The news article is. If anything, they need to be the ones providing evidence.

          I see. You believed it was fake because you wanted to believe it.

          Hey! Just like I said!

            Just because some random news article claims something doesn’t make it true. It’s not evidence on its own.

            And you know what, yeah I believed it was fake because it fit my lived experiences that most news articles are lying. I wanted it to be fake because it didn’t fit my world view, that journalists are liars.

            As an aside, I got a chance to look around over my lunch break, and I can’t find any other pictures of that poster. You’d think if it was real, there’d be plenty of pictures. And I can’t find anywhere where the AfD said what the article claimed they said.

            So I’m going to go with Hitchens’s razor. “What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.”
