Since the emergence of the Pegida movement in 2014, Saxony has been characterized by an alarming rise in political extremism and anti-immigrant sentiments, culminating in numerous violent incidents.
The rise of the far-right in Saxony is exemplified by the Alternative for Germany (AfD), whose growing support is indicative of a shift in political power away from the traditional CDU.
Saxony's dual extremism is evident; while far-right movements like Pegida and the AfD gain momentum, left-wing extremist factions persistently clash with authorities, maintaining a tense political landscape.
Historically, Saxony has been a focal point for extremism, exemplified by the National Socialist Underground's brutal actions and the ongoing conflict within its socio-political fabric.
