This election had the most people show up to vote since 1990. People that normally dont vote now saw a party they could confide in, but not only that. Majority of the CDU voters last election (over 50%) flocked to AfD after they lied and violated their voters
Just speaking mathematically, if a party gets "at least 44% of the vote", in a multi-party race where the second place only got 17%, do you still get to call them "far-right"?
Are you actually describing their extremism -- or are you really describing yours?
