The LIMINAL/fringe piece asserts AfD's 29% INSA poll figure signals imminent voter backlash and Europe-wide populist realignment driven by immigration. This overstates durability. In the 2024 Thuringia and Saxony state elections, AfD topped polls in both yet was blocked from government by all-party cordon sanitaire, with turnout and coalition math unchanged from prior cycles. Federal data from the 2021 Bundestag election and subsequent Landtag results show AfD national support capped below 15% in actual votes, not matching the claimed surge trajectory. INSA itself has historically overestimated AfD by 3-5 points versus final tallies in multiple cycles, per documented post-election adjustments.
