It’s been reported that in the German elections, a far right party has made ‘significant gains’.

In the UK (at least before the scandals) Reform UK seems to have had a significant boost and has even surpassed the right-wing Conservative Party in some polls/predictions.

Even France, one or two years ago, was threatened with a far-right government due to the French far right party gaining a lot of support.

It feels like in the last few years, the far-right has exceeded itself and had a surge in popularity. Is this the case? And if so, wtf is fuelling it?

    I capitalized it because it’s AN ACTUAL PARTY IN GERMANY, not some vague idea that you don’t even understand, as you surely don’t understand “sovereignty” either .

    Get this straight. Leftist don’t arm Nazis.

            Well, not the only one, but a prominent one that has caused most of the world’s issues in the past decade.

            This is a collage of actual photos, not AI.

            I don’t think you even know what Svoboda is, who Oleh Tyahnybok is, or what happened in 2014. It’s okay to admit it. It’s better than just making stuff up and talking out your ass.

              Ah yes, and whole bunch of pictures taken out of context. Very telling. Your Kremlin propaganda bores me. The fact is russia is invading, and trying to ethnically cleanse Ukrainians. No amount of russian spinning makes that untrue

                There is context if you even had a clue what I was talking about. You seem to have a lot of confidence in matters that you don’t understand.

                How many ethnic Ukrainians do you think lived in the Donbass before the coup? How have they been “cleansed”?

                This should be good.🙄

                  As if you would believe anything that didnt come from rt.com.

                  Its sad you fall for the same stuff that the Israeli government tells its people about the Palestinians. Do better.

                    Why know anything beyond who they tell you your “enemies” are? You’re a good little stooge.

                    Russia is not the ones arming a genocide. Israel and Ukraine are allies. And that tracks, both fascist ethnostate proxies of Western imperialism.
