Apple Front, a provocative group that uses satire to challenge far-right extremists in Germany is taking a different approach to getting it's point across. They dress all in black, wearing red armbands and banners with an apple on it and members chant, "What gives power to the youth? Apple juice! Apple juice!"The mock-extremist group has offended people who have mistaken it as being part of the Nazi community. Being that they look so much like them! They say they do it for the shock value, well it is definitely working. The group resembles a political theater group more than anything else and demonstrates alongside radicals and neo-Nazis at marches and rallies across Germany to make fun of the radicals. They say it's a creative way to get people's attention, I think it's just plain offensive.
