Please, before shitting all over Germany again with Nazi accusations and whatnot, keep in mind that this was demanded by populistic, right-wing politicians, who are – luckily – currently not running the government, but are in the opposition.

From the article:

Politicians in Germany think that climate activist Greta Thunberg should be banned from entering the country over her participation in pro-Palestinian protests, according to the domestic policy spokesman for Germany's biggest opposition party, the Christian Democratic Union.

Surely you can call them out for it, but neither do they represent Germany, nor are they even running the national government.

Are you sure? This seems pretty nazi to me. Also germans online are one of the loud supporters of yet another genocide.
