Maybe some, but several studies have shown, that a good deal of AfD voters are in fact completely on board with their fascist world view.
And those who are not still tolerate it.
Just blaming it all on dissatisfaction without addressing the deep seated bigotry in large parts of the population does not help the discussion and in imho only helps to further legitimize the AfD as a serious alternative.

Their problem with current political parties seems to be that they don’t address the “problem” that is the presence of brown people in germany “appropriately”
If Ossis really want to scare the political establishment they should resurrect the SED and demand Article 15 socialisation of all means of production. Don’t even have to enter federal politics to do that a majority in a state parliament suffices.
