politics

Nerstheimer ran for the first time in the election for the Berlin House of Representatives in 2011 on the state list of the right-wing populist micro - party Die Freiheit . In 2012 he acted as chairman of the Berlin section of the right-wing extremist and Islamophobic German Defense League (GDL), which he said he wanted to develop into a militia . Compared to the AfD state executive he had "credibly distanced himself from his previous membership".

In the election to the Berlin House of Representatives in 2016 he became a candidate for the AFD for the constituency Lichtenberg one in the House of Representatives elected. Before the AfD parliamentary group was constituted, he gave up membership in a parliamentary group in writing . Previously, AfD federal board member Alice Weidel had distanced himself from Nerstheimer to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) and suggested expulsion from the party . In addition, the FAZ reported that "high-ranking parliamentary group members [...] would seek a parliamentary group without Nerstheimer".

Exclusion from the AfD

At the beginning of October 2016, the state board of the Berlin AfD finally decided to initiate party exclusion proceedings against Nerstheimer. The Federal Arbitration Court of the AfD finally excluded Nerstheimer from the AfD in January 2020.

Statements and controversies

Nerstheimer caused a stir several times with racist statements when he called black people "Bimbos". In 2013, he described the then Federal Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier and Defense Minister Ursula von der Leyen as “ treasoners ” on Facebook . He defended the war criminal Erich Priebke in relation to the massacre in the Ardeatine Caves and untruthfully claimed on July 29, 2013 that the 335 civilians murdered there , including 75 Jews, were " partisans ". As such, they were not under the protection of martial law , which is why "the shootings were lawful". In 2016 he described Syrian refugees as "disgusting worms" and asylum seekers as "parasites that feed on the vital juices of the German people". In the same year he shared history revisionist posts on Facebook and claimed that there were “ election fraudsters in Germany”. In 2014, he described homosexuals on Twitter as a "degenerate species". He also used the phrase "BRD Treuhandgesellschaft based in Frankfurt am Main", which is customary among Reich citizens . The former Belgian Prime Minister Guy Verhofstadt ( Open VLD ) described these statements by Nerstheimer as "absolutely unacceptable".

In June 2017, Nerstheimer's political immunity was lifted due to an investigation into homophobic agitation on Facebook . In the corresponding proceedings for incitement to hatred before the Tiergarten district court , he was sentenced to a fine of 70 daily rates in February 2018 . Even after the trial, he stuck to his statement - that any rabbit breeding association could confirm that homosexuality was not in the interests of biology - and announced an appeal against the verdict. In the subsequent appeal hearing, the Berlin Regional Court sentenced Nerstheimer to a fine of € 5,000. He announced that he would also appeal this judgment .
