This headline is a good example of how something can be technically true but substantively false. They found one video of a few pro-AfD Jews, and made it sound like most German Jews are pro-AfD, when the major bodies of the German Jewish community overwhelmingly oppose the AfD.

Oh Germany where you can't barely do anything (emails, pay by card) without being banged on your head with the holy "Datenschutz" & the memory of the Stasi, but also where 72% are in favor of "expanding mandate of authorities e.g. access to chats" 😳
