    Go speak with real people, everyone I know is terrified of immigrants and want to vote for the furthest right, even pis despite their past scandals with selling visas.

    They’re telling me the ukrainean ““dictator”” is a world wide begger that keeps the war going to get rich. The Polish are clad with propaganda. They will be invaded by the Russians and they will love it

        he’s not wrong. AfD are on the rise in Germany, NF in France, Reform in the UK. Immigration is the core issue for a huge swathe of the european population. whether you believe in russian interferance or not it wont matter when these parties get in, which they will.

        There is some extremely concerning polling in the UK putting reform ahead of all of the other parties including the one currently in government.

        We have some strong european leadership right now in terms of rhetoric, but macron is weak domestically, and Merz had to form a coalition to keep the AfD out

          “Merz had to form a coalition…”

          Dude, ever since the BRD exists ALL governments in Germany were coalitions.
          Every single one of them.
          So, if you dont understand what you talking about about, please read some wiki article or something, and skip the rightwing bullshit propaganda on youtube, ok?

            AfD is getting close to large enough to make forming a coalition to cut them out of the decision making process not possible without increasing fragile coalitions from other parties that dont work well together.

            but keep ignoring the problem, sure

          Immigrants are just a Boogeyman being used as propaganda to prop up Russian-backed conservative political movements.
