The shift to the right is also enforced by the so-called centrist parties like the CDU, which are basically using the same talking points in regard of migration with a little softer phrasing. The party chairmen of the CDU and CSU (bavarian sister-party of the CDU) are both populists with a long (and documented) history of right wing opinions (like slandering ukrainian refugees, not participating in anti-rape legislation, ...). So, the political climate is pretty good for fascists, thanks to the so-called centrists.
