An overwhelming majority of Germans back the farmers’ protests despite media claims that the “far right” was co-opting the demonstrations, a tactic that was also used by the media to discredit Covid-19 demonstrations in Germany.
A new poll from INSA shows that 69 percent of Germans support the current farmers’ protests, while only 22 percent reject them. Despite one in five poll respondents saying they were directly affected by the protests, which featured tractors blockading roads and highways, the majority still gave their nod of approval.
