Jedes Argument gegen drastischere Klimamaßnahmen wird mit Leistung/Wettbewerbsfähigkeit/Produktion oder sonstiger kapitalistisch-neoliberaler Begründung unterfüttert. Well, hate to be the bearer of bad news, aber die Klimakrise schadet eurer Wirtschaft und Wettbewerbsfähigkeit genauso.

Personally, I think "Spain's migration crisis" reveals how "the European mainstream" has fallen
The far right operates within a democratic system, using the same democratic institutions as "the mainstream". "The mainstream" now follows far-right politics within this system. This should be the basic common ground & understanding when trying to counter far-right politics and protect democracy.
Perhaps one day people will understand and acknowledge that the far right, and especially far-right discourse, is not an anomaly, something taking place far "away" from the democratic "mainstream", but rather something now firmly established within and fundamentally part of it.

The "mainstream" discourse on Ceuta shows quite clearly how the discourse has shifted, how norms and humanity have eroded, and how fear of (or perhaps, agreement with) the far right shapes the politics and discourse of the day.
Ich lasse das hier mal so stehen. Das ist eine Ausdrucksweise ["Europa darf und wird nicht ein weiteres Mal *überrannt werden*"], die man sonst eher mit einer anderen Partei assoziiert. Und das Ganze wurde auch nur auf der rechtsextremen Plattform X gepostet, hier natürlich nicht.
My favourite new addition to my book collection 📚☺️
I take it as some sort of promotion, just with more work for the same pay.
In case you ever feel bad about the state of the Left in your country, look to Hungary.

Ich weiß wirklich nicht mehr, was ich dazu sagen soll. Die ÖVP bewirbt auf ihren Social-Media-Kanälen ihre Abschiebepolitik und bedient sich dabei der Sprache, Bilder und Symbolik der Rechtsextremen.
This piece really does it all when it comes to mainstreaming the far right and normalising democratic erosion. It's almost a form of art. Then again, looking at the author and the outlet, maybe this shouldn't be a surprise.
They Gave MAGA a Safe Haven. Now They’re in Retreat.
Will the alliance between MAGA and Hungary’s far right survive defeat?

Being queer means being the target of violence. Every queer person knows this. It's deeply engraved in who we are. We live with it every day of our lives. Not because of terrorism but because it is structurally enshrined in our "free" societies. Violence against queer people is not an exception ...
As we learned today, the 🇦🇹 Supreme Court has ruled that the Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ) must retract its claim that the @doew.at – an institution that, in addition to historical research and documentation, systematically monitors the Austrian far right – is a "pseudo-scientific institution". 🧵 1/5

This Saturday, an antifascist demonstration in Vienna was disrupted by neo-Nazis. Police appeared, monitoring the peaceful antifascist protesters, then used pepper spray against them and arrested one woman before escorting the neo-Nazis to the metro. 🤷🏻♀️ www.derstandard.at/story/300000...
What started as a peaceful protest and celebration in Berlin ended in devastation. Thoughts are with all those who did not make it home safely yesterday. 🖤

Great investigative article by @derstandard.at, zooming in on the close connections between the extreme-right Identitarians and the far-right FPÖ, which have existed for years. As leaked private messages show, Sellner not only maintains close ties to people in the FPÖ but also exerts pressure. 1/

My three observations from today's return to 🇺🇸: 1) I've never been this quickly through immigration (i.e. never seen so few people arrive to enter the US); 2) I've never seen so many people be sent to the scary room for further questioning (ofc mainly POCs & ppl with passports from Latin America);
The Austrian 'Falter' reports that ex-Chancellor Kurz was also on MCC's payroll: He reportedly received 10,000 euros per month in consultancy fees from Modul University in Vienna, which is majority-owned by the Orbán-aligned MCC, but returned 110,000 euros to MCC after Fidesz lost the election.
Laut dem ungarischen Magyar-Medium "Kontroll" hat Sebastian Kurz 10.000 Euro pro Monat von der Modul Uni bekommen, die dem Fidesz-nahen MCC gehört. Kurz' Sprecher bestätigt eine "Kooperation mit dem MCC". www.falter.at/zeitung/2026...

It's 2026, and the International Society of Political Psychology fails to include a single woman on its panel. However, they apparently are brave enough to include a professor who has been found to have violated his university's anti-discrimination and anti-harassment policy.
