SPD and Grüne are helping the rise of fascism too even if it's not on purpose. Die Linke are the only ones in parliament actually working against it.
Considering that Putin is the biggest fascist threat for all of Europe, your statement is laughable. The Left agree that Putin is doing bad things in Ukraine and other countries but their message is that the domestic social net is more important than Europe's survival and all weapon deliveries must stop. Let's talk instead.
If policies were up to them, they'd be helping fascism almost as much as outright Putin sheep
How is Putin the biggest fascist threat for Europe? Fascism was literally born in Europe and exported elsewhere, we have Nazi and fascist parties getting consistent growth election after election in basically every EU country.
Believe it or not, Europe isn't at war with Russia, we should be struggling in favour of diplomacy to reduce both our and their military expenditure... which is hard to do when riding hard the NATO wave. Ffs Europe was building gas pipelines with Russia 3.2 years ago, we're really still capable of separating ourselves from fascist US, reduce military expenditure with fascist Russia, and take care of our own fascist problems.
Europe isn’t at war with Russia
Yes, we are. From election interference to contamination of drinking water at military bases in Germany, incendiary devices placed on DHL planes, and cutting undersea cables.
we should be struggling in favour of diplomacy to reduce both our and their military expenditure…
Completely naive. Diplomacy only works from a position of strength.
Russia invaded Georgia. No military help, only diplomacy: Led nowhere.
Russia's 2014 invasion of Ukraine: No military help, only diplomacy. Two Minsk Accords Russia used to build up their military and Russia then happily broke.
reduce military expenditure with fascist Russia, and take care of our own fascist problems.
Russia is part of Europe. Russia is waging genocide in Europe. North Korean soldiers are murdering in Europe. Putin is our fascist problem and people appeasing Putin are also a part of the problem.
If attacks to civilian infrastructure and election interference are enough to claim war, Germany should be in the first instance at war with the US and Ukraine according to that logic, given the explosion of the Nordstream (much more important and evident than reported drinking water alteration or whatever you claim of DHL planes with incendiary devices). Also, Ukraine should be at war with the US for its interference in the election process in 2014, where the democratically elected leader was toppled in a blatant west-backed coup.
You know what Georgia and Ukraine have in common? They're in the Russian sphere of influence area and have been for the past century. What's happening is that the west keeps meddling in the Russian sphere of influence and Russia responds in the only way it can: militarily. Russia exhausted the possibilities of diplomacy with the west, warned repeatedly of the consequences of western-alignment of Ukraine (which, again, was done antidemocratically in 2014). That's the reason why Russia invaded Ukraine, because its diplomacy, soft power and interference were weaker than those of the west in maintaining a sphere of influence. Believe it or not, history didn't begin in 2022.
The EU should stop the US-directed meddling in Russia's sphere of influence, and start building relations with the countries that are actually sharing a continent with it. It's just too racist and too subservient to US interests to do so.
Putin is our fascist problem and people appeasing Putin are also a part of the problem.
Putin is a fascist and that's a problem, but he's not the one pushing to cut our healthcare and education and pensions budgets, he does that in Russia. He's not the one threatening our minorities and our women, he does that in Russia. Europe is more than capable of having fascism by itself without the help of Putin, and blaming everything on a Russian conspiracy is, well, a conspiracy. Russia isn't nearly powerful or influential enough to be mostly responsible for the fascist problem in the EU, there are a lot more material conditions thst give raise to that.
Stop fucking cheering for war. Stop your warmongering attitudes, stop presenting Europe as the fighting ground for WW3, you DO NOT WANT to see war in the EU, and it's absofuckinglutely not too late to go back.
Also, Ukraine should be at war with the US for its interference in the election process in 2014, where the democratically elected leader was toppled in a blatant west-backed coup.
And here you are, laying bare that you're just repeating pro Russian propaganda. Calling the right to protest a coup. Not the occupation of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine is the problem but the people rising up.
He’s not the one threatening our minorities and our women, he does that in Russia.
Yeah, Russia is just there doing some domestic stuff we don't need to care about. Russia isn't occupying parts of Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia. Russia isn't expanding westwards. Just sit idly by when tens of thousands of non-Russian children get kidnapped, put into reeducation camps, to then fight for Russia. Just sit idly by when Russian agents outright attack German barracks and twiddle your thumbs. Other issues are way more important than caring about that campaign of extermination in Eastern Europe within the borders of an EU-aspirant.
stop presenting Europe as the fighting ground for WW3
Good I didn't do it. Another Russian propaganda tool is to push back against claims that were never made, acting as if anyone but Russia was the aggressor, trying to move the conversation into Russia's genocide being just legitimate self-defense.
You're nothing but a Russian propagandist, whether you're aware of it or not.
"But wouldn't a Russian propagandist deny that bad things are happening inside Russia?" the propaganda playbook would make you ask in return, admitting to some criticism but brush it off as a domestic problem far away, trying to cast doubts on your underlying intentions. Russia's propagandists up the illusion of a broader political landscape. Put the AfD on Germany's far right, put the BSW on Germany's far left, put appeasers somewhere in between, and divert attention away from Russia's attempts at conquering Europe.
Seeing as you're radicalised against Russia to that degree, any further discussion is useless, I won't change your mind and you won't change mine by making false claims of genocide and failing to understand the slightest nuance beyond US state department propaganda
Wanting to leave NATO, withholding weapons from Ukraine and talking to Putin isn't exactly "working against" fascism. That's very much the Neville Chamberlain approach ... but even he came to his sense after the full scale invasion started. Can't say the same for die Linke.
NATO is a fascist organisation.
You Germs should know that since they incorporated plenty nazis in the organisation.

Ok Tankie.
shouldn't you be beating up anti-genocide protesters while doing the Musk salute?
A tankie on .world? Funny
We're having all the fun ridiculing all the fash and the lib enablers.
Good for you .world isn't as restrictive as the tankie triade
Without meaning this as a defense of Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine: go check .world mod history, every other deleted comment is "Russian troll" or "disinformation" or equivalents. If you defend a policy of censoring points of view more charitative to Russia than western narratives be open about it, it's fine, just be aware that you're actually doing it
What is fine about censorship and banning 'unwanted' news sources?
People aren't allowed to make up their own mind?
I have posted plenty of facts that got removed bcs it didn't fit the US narrative.
There is plenty to say on the violent US instigated coup of 2014 and the horrible war commited by the Banderite regime for 8 years.
Somehow the MSM didn't care and even whitewashed them later.
Mentioning that is not 'Russian propaganda'.
I don't like Putin, compareds to the US he is by far the lesser evil.
People refuse to see the manufactured consent and almost totalitarian information control.
I don't defend the uncritical banning of non pro-western outlets or viewpoints carried out by .world mods, I'm asking them that if they ban comments for it, they should be open about it and admit that they will censor non-pro-western voices.
OK, I agree.
Even then, it's much worse on other social media where you getpermabanned for the slightest.
While I agree, the discussion in other instances like .ml or hexbear is much more nuanced IMO (plenty of critical voices against Russia too, just not based on US State Dept. propaganda)
Bold statement. Do you have any examples? I would disagree, but maybe I just don't quite understand what you meant.
SPD is just standing by not doing anything (except being corrupt), basically silent complicity. The greens are also not clearly positioning themselves against the anti immigrant hatred, but they are still doing much better than the rest imo.
What should the SPD be doing?
Behave like social democrats, push to fund infrastructure and school upgrades (instead of defunding them), not have a leading candidate that was involved with the biggest tax fraud scheme in recent history, etc
I nisunderstood, I thought you were calling them to do something about AfD more directly.
The best way to fight fascism is with meaningful policy thay helps the working class. The best way to help it is proving that liberal democracy consists in getting to choose which party gets to enforce austerity this term
De-Nazification never happened.
*in west Germany
The Stasi had it's share of fascist turncoats.
Insignificant compared to west germamy
"At least we're not as racist as the US!"
"...yet."
Sorry - is the Reese’s mug a reference to something I should know about?
Former FCC chairman and piece of shit, Ajit Pai used to have a cartoonishly large Reese's mug. Could be an old picture and all of the text has been changed.
Germany was never truly de-Nazified.
While this is absolutely true, I dont think, that this is the cause of the current uprise of facism.
Fascism is generally Capitalism's immune system as it declines, meant to violently root out leftist opposition as workers begin to protest their conditions.
I'm stealing that analogy, thank you very much.
I'd generalize it a bit to say, fascism is the immune system of any system built on bad principles that's collapsing under the weight of its own internal contradictions. The obvious decay then creates a space psychos and grifters to pose as faux saviors and gain power by scamming people into something they pretend is a solution but is actually a death cult.
I think that's unique analysis, for sure, but I'd keep it to Capitalism. Historical movements recognized as fascist, such as Italian Fascism and Nazi Germany, arose specifically in decaying Capitalist economies where a millitant working class was growing, and the fascists slaughteted the Communists and Socialists. I recommend reading the first chapter of Blackshirts and Reds (though the whole book is fantastic).
Seeing as some left to Argentina or were recruited by the US and the USSR for NASA, no they never were de-Nazified, they just wiped the blood off their name tags.
Yep, prominent Nazis were even given leadership of NATO, such as Adolf Heusinger. The Soviets ended up being far harsher to the Nazis, hence why so many fled to Latin America to get away. Makes sense, considering the absolute devastation the Nazis wrought on the Soviets and the 20 million Soviet lives the Nazis took, and how comparatively little the US saw, as the 2 major powers emerging from World War II.
"No you can't bring up that NATO had actual Nazis with blood on their hands as leaders! Especially ones that tried to make a new Waffen-SS in the 50s! That's unfair!"
Yep, people love to reflexively defend NATO, as it's very effectively pitched as merely a "defensive alliance" when it has always served as a coercive arm for the US to pressure its geopolitical adversaries, especially the Soviets, hence why they worked with the most effective anticommunists, the Nazis. If you don't play along with NATO, then they pull Operation Gladio on you.
