Nah, they're two different and parallel fash movements. Reichsbürger are basically the German equivalent to Sovereign Citizens. Weirdos that nobody takes seriously. In fact, they kinda rose to prominence after the AfD. Beyond a few shootouts with the cops, the most prominent thing they did was the ridiculous coup plot earlier this year - but that had 0 chance of succeeding and was basically preparations for adventurism.
Also, fascist attempts at rural hegemony aren't new and are actually kinda successful in the east - and not just Varg-style LARP-Villages like Jamel, but the AfD is largely hegemonic in the countryside in the east and has had success in the West as well.
