Identitarian movement in Chemnitz: new rooms for right -wing extremists in danger!

In the shadow of the noisy city of Chemnitz, a worrying development is open to: the identity movement, a group that has come into focus in recent years through nationwide sensational actions, has launched a new center in the Schönau district. As ZEIT ONLINE was acquired, which is to be converted into a turntable for right-wing extremist activities.

The new object is anything but an inviting place. The entrance door is imposed with a pleated blind, the curtains are drawn and inside are both a flag of the identity movement and a flag of Germany from the ceiling. Officially, the "Center for Counter Culture and Actism" was announced via a Telegram channel, whereby numerous events such as regulars' tables, book presentations and social evenings are planned.

Marvin Gröger in focus

One of the protagonists of this movement is Marvin Gröger, who lives in Werdau in 2024, who lives in Werdau and likes to show himself in public. He took part in hikes, round tables and reading groups of this group. Marvin drives striking white Audis, which listens to the Z-MG 5008 and Z-MG 8000 license plate, and not only attracts local but also national attention, such as Indymedia reports.

an increasingly bold game

The Identitarian Movement has already successfully secured the fourth time with this new location in Chemnitz, all of which are under the influence of the right -wing extremist scene. According to the State Office for the Protection of the Constitution, the acquisition of the premises was discussed in early 2023, while the functioning of this object was only correctly recorded in October 2023. It is particularly explosive that the project is located near an AfD city council, which harbors additional explosiveness.

It was only in November that the new center was ceremoniously inaugurated with over 50 guests, including the AfD member of the Bundestag Roger Beckamp. A real estate company, the Schanze one, also plays an important role by acquiring investors for the purchases of the identity movement and thus strengthening its influence in the region.

resistance in Chemnitz and beyond

Despite the chilled atmosphere in the new center, the reactions from the city society are anything but friendly. Torsten Hahnel, an employee of the right -wing extremism, highlights the need for a broad resistance to the identities in Chemnitz and is optimistic that they can be defeated if the community is together. Hahnel refers to past experiences in Halle an der Saale, where the movement was forced to sell a town house due to protests.

The protection of the constitution observes the events carefully, after all, many of the right -wing extremist groups and their symbols that occur in public are prohibited by law. The legal framework is clearly defined, which drastically restricts the possibilities of the identities to open their ideology, as stated in the guidelines of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution .

In the middle of all this unrest remains observed how the local community will position itself and whether it is possible to put an end to the right -wing extremist endeavor in Chemnitz. Either way, one thing is certain: this development requires our full attention.
