📝 His grandparents were some of the millions of ethnic Germans who were expelled from East Prussia during the Post-WW2, today divided and part of Russian Federation, Poland and Lithuania, by the Soviet & Polish authorities

📝 Hocke defends the replacement of Post-WW2 Liberal German values for a Nationalism-based Prussian virtues, and promotes very natalist views, specifically the idea of "three-child family as a political and social model."

📝 Hocke was the figure behind the idea of Re-migration and large scale deportations out of Germany, which caused a controversy after holding a meeting with major politicians, activists and even large corporation owners to promote this idea, causing AfD to be banned from the ID Party group in EU for "Right-wing extremism" and triggering a wave of mass protests calling for the outlawing of AfD

📝 German media claims that Mr. Hocke is closely tied to National-Socialist Movements all over Germany, specially the National Democratic Party of Germany, the "most significant neo-NS party to emerge after 1945"

📝 In 2014, talking to party colleagues, Hocke advocated the abolition of section 86 of the German Criminal Code, which "outlaws spread of propaganda by unconstitutional organizations" (As German Ultranationalist groups) and section 130 of the German Criminal Code, which "criminalizes incitement to hatred towards other groups". This, technically, would make Holocaust Denial and Anti-Muslim hate speech legal in Germany

📝 In January 2017, Mr Hocke caused a major controversy in German society and even inside AfD for "calling to the Monument in Memory to the Murdered Jews of Europe to be entirely demolished and torn apart", which almost caused to him to be banned from AfD by the then-Party President Frauke Petry, which later left the party for saying that "Right-wing radicalism within the party was hopeless big"

📝 In 2023, a movement started by the German left, which considers him as the "Hitler of 21st Century", started a petition to revoke Höcke's eligibility to run for parliament based on article 18 of the German Federal Constitution, because supposedly Höcke is too dangerous to be left close to power. The petition gathered 1.7 Million signatures.
