„Was jedoch […] selten in den Mittelpunkt gerückt wird, ist die Rolle deutscher Medien beim Erstarken des Faschismus. Bereits 2017 konstatierte Kommunikationswissenschaftler Kai Hafez: „Die Resonanz des Rechtspopulismus (ist) auch eine journalistische Konstruktion.““ Ich schreibe hier neu über:

Wege in den wehrhaften Journalismus

Das Erstarken von faschistischen Ideologien und von der AfD, aber auch soziale Medien und KI stellen den Journalismus vor große Herausforderungen. Zu meistern sind diese nur mit antifaschistischem Jou...

"Die AfD hat nicht völlig zu Unrecht den Ruf, eine »Professorenpartei« zu sein." Wie sehr die Hochschulen von Rechtsextremismus betroffen sind, zeigt Dr. Christoph Haker in einer neuen Studie der Otto-Brenner-Stiftung 👇 gesundheit-soziales-bildung.verdi.de/mein-arbeits...

Die Zeit porträtiert eine „Whites Only“ Siedlung in Arkansas samt schicker Fotostrecke, und schreibt dazu in den Insta-Slides über den Gründer, einen Antisemiten und White Supremacist Überschriften wie „Orwoll, ein Rassist?“ (Sein Projekt wird auch von einem australischen Neo-Nazi unterstützt).

Zeit Screenshot: „Orwoll, der Rassist? Er, der diese Siedlung nur für Weiße aufbaut, sagt, er würde sich nicht damit befassen, wenn Menschen ihn als Rassisten beschreiben würden. Eher erzählt er von Nachrichten, die er bekommt, in denen Leute schreiben, dass er wenigstens ehrlich sei.“ Mein Kommentar: „Ist der Mann, der einen weißen Ethnostaat will, ein Rassist, fragt man sich nachdenklich bei der Zeit.“ Screenshot X Orwoll: @Aarvoll_ „David Duke nearly became governor of Louisiana in 1991, garnering more than a half million votes. There were White Pride rallies in the 80s that filled stadiums. We are further now from victory than we were 40 years ago, not closer. We aren't pressing hard or fast enough.“Zeit insta slide: „Orwoll, der Rassist?

RTTL is not a political organization and has no intent to shape public policy. We hope that our politicians will enact the best policies "=) ensure a positive future for our nation.“ „Is RTTL a Nazi organization? The Nazi Party existed in Germany from 1919 to 1945. The year is currently 2025 and we are in America. Draw your own conclusions.“ Screenshot X: @Aarvoll „The term "Aryan" as an ethnonym wasn't unique to the Indo-Aryan branch of the Indo-European peoples. It comes from the PIE root *áryas, which meant "noble", and was probably used as an autonym, in some form, by Pontic Steppe derived aristocracies all over Eurasia. It's a controvertial subject and modern etymologists will deny it, but the Proto-Germanic "Abala", the Irish "Éire" and the Greek "Aristos", all meaning "noble", are probably all related to the PIE "*áryas". It was a word that referred to a single ethnic ruling caste that dominated many societies, it basically meant the same as the modern European concept of aristocracy (most European aristocratic lines descend from Germanic equestrian conquerers).

Screenshots Orwoll auf X: @Aarvoll • 27.06.25 „Jews on Reddit found out about Return to the Land, and now they're all riled up against us. God forbid a single explicitly White community should exist... This is a losing battle for them if they decide to press it. They get a state and nukes but we can't have a neighborhood?“ @Aarvoll_ „Tom Sewell will be sharing his own experience with intentional community in Australia.
