Why the US Right is different.
John Burn-Murdoch argues that based on the World Values Survey, the US Right is genuinely closer to Turkey or Russia than to the EU Right.
NB: they’ve been like this for 20 years, since Fox News and 9/11; but were more like the European Right in 1990.
#Trump says that #Congress should repeal a #law that would supercharge #US manufacturing of semiconductor chips. The #CHIPS & #Science Act was signed into law by Pres #Biden & heralded as a #bipartisan victory ensuring the US would no longer rely on foreign countries to produce the chips needed in a majority of the #technology we use. Along w/ #Democrats, 24 House #Republicans voted to approve the bill. Many of them were targeted by #FarRight colleagues & #MAGA for backing a Democrat bill.
"This dispute lays bare the cracks in the U.S. imperialist project. The #Biden administration and centrist #liberals remain committed to the post-#ColdWar vision of US global dominance, where American military and economic power upholds a rules-based international order. However, the emerging #farright faction—embodied by Trump and Vance—sees empire differently."

Analysis: "The Left has created the swing to the Right": Germany & Australia
"Traditionally, support for the socio-economic underdogs came from the Left, the progressive polity.
"But that willingness by the Left..to give voice to the oppressed has significantly diminished.
"It surrendered the macroeconomic debate to the mainstream [neoliberalism]".

"To show you how much those paying attention aren’t happy, let me walk through some early #polls...
Bottom line: as you find yourself appalled, day after day, by what is happening, never let the #FarRight convince you that you are somehow in the minority.
Most #Americans agree with you.
...keep boldly speaking out"
@EUCommission While you say that the Digital Services Act keep elections free and fair, we would like to speak loud and clear to all European politicians:
STOP THE RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA IN EUROPE!
LEAVE X, NOW!
Please, protect democracy, sign, and share with your local representative this Open Letter to All European Politicians and Leaders to Abandon X/Twitter
Persuading others who support the right wing extremist views can be challenging, but it's possible through thoughtful, empathetic communication and evidence-based arguments.
Here are some approaches to help foster understanding and shift perspectives: 1)

VP #JDVance told #Europe leaders on Fri that their biggest #security threat was not military aggression from #Russia or #China, but their own suppression of free speech—including efforts to block #FarRight parties from joining govts.

How #Twitter/#X amplifies the #farright in #Germany during the #btw25 campaign 
The blue segment in the first image shows the share of tweets by #AfD-affiliated accounts ~ 1/5Their share of the views is > 1/4They get almost 1/2 of the likes for all party-affiliated tweets
Even accounting for composition (recent influx of #AfD partisans & exodus of others), this suggests algorithmic bias that favours #farright content. Data collected yesterday with the excellent SPARTA dashboard that monitors the #btw25 campaign on social media https://dtecbw.de/sparta/?m=m
“The Italian government led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is pushing a security bill through parliament that, if enacted, could have a devastating impact on fundamental rights, including the rights to peaceful protest and freedom of expression.”

Remind me in a month: German society and Europeans will be astonished when they see the number of votes for AfD.
It was inspiring to see tens of thousands singing "Wehrt euch, leistet Widerstand. Gegen den Faschismus hier im Land. Haltet fest zusammen, haltet fest zusammen", But we are in the Berlin bubble. There could be even more people, yet the disinformation war we’re in is light-years ahead of a mentality still struggling to abandon fax machines, digitize services, and integrate the millions of immigrants who keep the country running—yet cannot vote.
Yeah, I should be able to write this in German, but I would take ages on my limited short break before returning to work.
@micahflee @protonprivacy Neutrality in face of fascism is enabling.
Neutrality is an oppressor myth.
If you are not antifascist, what are you?
Who is supporting Israel?
AfD in Germany, RN in France, FPÖ in Austria, AUR in Romania, GOP in the USA, PVV in the Netherlands, DF in Denmark, PS in Finland, EL in Greece
+ many other parties; I chose to only include some of the far right ones, most (if not all) known for their overt antisemite rhetoric.
Honorable mention: Argentina's Milei, far right pro-Israel fanatic and good friend with neo-nazi and antisemite Rodolfo Barra.
If you support Israel and at the same time do not consider yourself a neo-nazi / do not sympathize with the parties outlined here, you are a moron and should reconsider your beliefs.
