German neo-Nancy: Angelique Geray's undercover work divides public opinion
El País's article on journalist Angelique Geray, who infiltrated a German neo-Nancy group made up of teenagers aged 14 to 17, has sparked a wave of skepticism in some sections of public opinion. Far from being alarmed by the threat, many commentators have greeted the news with sarcasm, calling it exaggerated or even a "comic book story". The journalist, who worked for RTL, described how the young people talked about a "pure people", downplayed the Holocaust and expressed hatred toward immigrants. The group called itself "Machirulos IV Reich".
The details of the infiltration
According to the report, the neo-Nancy were between 14 and 17 years old. Geray managed to infiltrate the group thanks to a timely tip-off that thwarted their plans, although she is now under death threats. The story was published on May 16, 2026, and highlighted the journalist's surprise at discovering that the teenagers "miccionan what they say".
Reactions: skepticism and shifting the focus
In the public debate, a majority current downplays the neo-Nancy threat. It is argued that 95% of global attacks are carried out by Jovenlandeses, and it is suggested that attention should focus on other groups. The credibility of the account is also questioned, comparing it to a "comic book" that only lacks aliens. Some commentators joke about the need to infiltrate immigrant gangs, while others openly wish for the journalist to be caught. Only a minority defends Geray's work, though without providing additional data.
The context of neo-Nancy violence
The debate takes place against the backdrop of two recent incidents: a man executed in Barcelona by a suspected neo-Nancy and a multiple-vehicle ramming attack in Modena. Some use these events to prove the existence of real violence, while others ridicule them, attributing them to a narrative designed to justify repression of the far right.
The question that remains is whether the neo-Nancy danger in Germany is real or a media creation. The data in the article show active youth cells, but the public debate reveals deep distrust of the official account and a tendency to shift attention toward other groups.
