Sociologist Andrew Holden states that most members who join millenarian movements such as Jehovah's Witnesses have made an informed choice. However, he also states that defectors "are seldom allowed a dignified exit", and describes the administration as autocratic.

Tom Thieme analysed at bpb in 2019 if AfD is a far- right party and concluded that their "fundamental criticism of Germany's democratic system goes hand in hand with a decidedly ethnocentric anti- pluralism." He referred also to Marcus Frohnmaier, who said before he became a member of the Bundestag: "I say to this left terrorists ...: If we come, then it will be cleared up, then it will be mucked out, then politics will be done again for the people and only for the people - because we are the people, dear friends." In its 2019 report on the AfD, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution made the conclusion, that Frohnmaier legitimizes "attacks on the state monopoly on violence", that he has "connections to right-wing extremist publishers / publicists" and to the "Islamophobic German Defense League". Frohnmaier flatly defames refugees, for example as a "rag proletariat", and advocates massive unequal treatment and categorical suspicion of refugees, for example with the demand for a blanket "curfew" for all refugees under 50 and for religious discrimination against Muslims.
