"Half of all 16-24 year olds only get their political information from TikTok. That makes the platform extraordinarily influential," said Roland Verwiebe.
"We believe that the AfD's success on TikTok very likely contributed to the AfD's electoral success," explained Roland Verwiebe, highlighting the link between social media and political outcomes.
The AfD achieved record results in regional elections, securing more than double the votes of the coalition government, indicating a shift in youth political engagement.
Research indicated that AfD-related content reached a far larger audience on TikTok than content from other political parties in the weeks leading up to elections.
