The New Left calls Grass a "liberal crap-head" and a "traitor to socialism." The right-wing National Democratic Party derides Grass as a "porno," because his works are peppered with four-letter words. Grass treats extremists from both sides with contempt, reminding audiences that "socialism when coupled with anarchism leads to fascism...
