I really hate to see that nowadays across the whole #European continent the people are very divided. We are witnessing a rise of #farRight and also #farLeft which both humiliate the #centre.
Can we finally agree that there is no ”we/they?” Can we finally agree that all of us want #Europe to thrive, but just with some other solutions?
Can we go back to the times when discussion was something normal?
Can we finally stop hating on each other?
People keep calling me 'far left', like that's some kind of insult. It really doesn't bother me. Here's why:
The MAGA party is what we call 'the right'. You can say they're 'far right' if you want, but we both know that term no longer has any substance. The old Republican party is dead. MAGA is the right.
So, I am as far removed from what MAGA stands for as a person can get. I will not compromise with them. They are evil.
So yup. I'm far left. You should be, too.
Here are the 5 wildest things about Germany’s new parliament

everyone is aware of the #geopolitical #trollFarm #psyop on the #farRight in the #West
not many want to admit the troll farm psyop also working the #farLeft
on the right, they amplify #hate
on the left, they amplify #alienation
well, i speak from an #American perspective
in #Europe you're far more aware of the two prong approach to divide and conquer
@vfrmedia @wdlindsy @mastodonmigration @paco
RE they even seem to discourage normal "masculine" stuff (such as working on cars/trucks, DIY etc
The they is #MAGA #influencers I assume
Strange their educated power to make just one word have so much power like #WOKE it was converted to fight the #liberals #farleft
@sz_duras The current political spectrum overlooks #anarchism, focusing solely on statist parties. Even the #farleft remains within this framework, weakening its strategic position. #Anarchists, the only ones challenging the state's institutional monopoly, are rendered invisible. It's time to revise this spectrum to include these #libertarian perspectives, often mistaken for general #abstention. Let's rethink our political vision for a more accurate and complete representation! #PoliticalTheory
Is your child a far-left extremist?
Look for warning signs:
I am currently interested in researching radicalisation among older adults (pre-senior, around 35 – 55 years), including disinformation susceptibility and worldview changes over time. If you have quality articles concerning this topic or otherwise useful information please redirect me to it.

First year of college, my political theory professor lectured that all of the political spectrum models out there are faulty, and then he introduced the Horseshoe Theory. It states that the far-right and the far-left have way more in common than we think… #politics #farleft #farright #left #right #liberal #conservative #fascism #communism
It does appear from this that there is a group of between 5% and 10% of the #uk population who will justify and support violence by the #farright . Not sure if there is or ever was a comparable group with regard to the #farleft - although they could well expect encouragement from parts of the #fediverse located well away from the #uk .
#France’s interior minister has suggested that #FarLeft activists were behind the #sabotage of the country’s #HighSpeedRail system on the eve of the #Olympics opening ceremony.
Four days after the attacks, #GéraldDarmanin said the investigation into the #arson attacks had “identified a certain number of profiles who could have committed it”. #ParisOlympics2024
Far left behind rail sabotage before Olympics, French minister suggests

Pause here and read the previous 2 posts together.
A president unaccountable via #impeachment or #criminalProsecution wants UNFETTERED power to fire any or ALL existing federal government EMPLOYEES (not just agencies) and replace them with LOYALISTS.
In other words, an election is not just to usher in a new president and a new cabinet, but sanctions a wholesale replacement of millions of Americans.
How’s that NOT a #rallyingCry for #Democrats, including #FarLeft?
#SouthAfrica’s unprecedented new #coalition has 7 parties in the Cabinet.
#FarLeft #EconomicFreedomFighters #EFF (4th place) just #blocked themselves for #ideology and #purity rather than #power. They plan to #protest

While the coalition is made up of 11 parties, including 7 with Cabinet positions, the agreement largely rests on the #ANC and the #DA putting aside their ideological differences and more than 20 years of being political foes
The recent European Parliament elections confirmed expectations that Europe is shifting towards the radical right. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2024/06/21/world/europes-neo-fascism/ #commentary #worldnews #europeanelections #farright #farleft #marinelepen #giorgiameloni
