Nobody can say why the evil fascist Nazi Hitler party is so evil or fascist or Nazi or Hitler, but they and their 10 million voters will continue to be treated like shit anyway
In spite of my late father having countless bad experiences fighting Germany in WW2, he never showed any bitterness, quite the opposite in fact. He was massively impressed with German competence, organisation, military tactics, machines etc etc, so much so I acquired the middle name of a German General. I was brought up respecting all that was good about the German people, and to forget the nastiness of a few. So now I am absolutely dismayed at the sheer stupidity of the German Marxist Idiot Left, doing their best to screw their own country and their own people, all for their Communist ideal. What is it with Communism that so rots the human brain that they cannot think through really simple things? It is so sad to see the greatness of the German people poisoned by Leftism, like a cancer of the brain. AfD, PLEASE SAVE GERMANY! And also Europe!
I think with communism it is the other way around. The already broken are drawn to utopian schemes to control the world. They have the answers to humanity's problems. This is what animates the WEF just as much as German politicians. The useless have to do something with their time, so politics always beckons.
It's both. Possibly both plus at least a third, and likely more.
Communism *genuinely* appeals to people living under feudalism, which is why it keeps coming up in South America. Even as a *dedicated anticommunist* I can *understand* why it appeals to the peasantry, which is why one of the best methods for defeating communism is to turn all the peasants into kulaks, and yes, quite likely destroy the "landed gentry".
The UK springs to mind, as far as "western civ" goes, though the US is trying real hard to catch up, even without actual titles of nobility.
The second group it appeals to are the midwit intellectuals, who can think far enough ahead to get to "it would be gooderer if people were treated more equalerer" but are incapable of thinking through second or third order effects.
The third group of people it appeals to are the folks who look at it and go "That's an excellent mechanism for enslaving a bunch of people while telling them it's for their own good" and are actually immoral enough to pursue it.
I would say that "the useless" you refer to mostly fall into category two. Some of them are in category three, but are also likely what Stalin called "useful idiots" who would be purged in the actual revolution. *Very* few of them will be category three, and *also* hard enough psychotics to rape eleven year olds in front of their parents, before executing said parents, and thus suitable for actual communist cadre.
Of course, it should also be noted that since they're "only" fucking eleven year olds, they're *still* better than the Muslim sine qua non.
I don’t think this is communism. This is exactly the other side of the coin. The other parties as happens in so many of these situations have become that which they hate the most.
It's not communism. Communism in the former Soviet Union was, from the time of Stalin onwards, pro-heterosexual and anti transgender. People who knew Stalin, such as Khrushchev, suggested he long harboured negative sentiments toward Jews.
The Nazis, who disapproved of marriage between Aryans and Sri-Lankans, and who, like the Commuinsts, were pro-heterosexual and anti-transgender, would have rounded up the AfD and imprisoned them for leftism.
It is a joke that the AfD, although the best that Germany has, is considered "right wing."
By the standards of many foreigners, AfD is woke on steroids.

Beg to differ. Their "sheer stupidity" has put them in control of one of Europe's most important countries. Very similar developments in a number of other countries.
WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED?
Looking back from where we are now, a more fruitful line of investigation may be this:
We now know that the erstwhile Left and camouflage-"Greens" have successfully infiltrated and co-opted the major political parties.
Looking back, WHAT DOES THEIR SUCCESS tell you about WHO THEY ALWAYS WERE? About what their REAL AGENDA was all along? About their powerful but hidden backers across the water, going back to their very beginnings?
Dickens tried all his life to enlighten England, Europe and the world. He thought it had all been a waste of time after visiting Canada where he found the most backwards, reprobate Scrooges and Uriah Heeps imaginable. He despaired. Bleak house is seriously anti-establishment and attacking the judiciary is not something to be taken lightly. They are in most ways the worst of the worst.
Strangely or not, Russians consider Dickens one of their favorite authors and an honorary Russian.

there is no significant Marxism in Germany since long. This is not about "left" or "right" in their original meaning of the 19th c. ie. related proletariat. It is about trans-national oligarchic projects.
Btw. as for stupidity, it was the German oligarchy in the 1930's that caused the destruction of Germany with loss of Baltic realms that were German since the 13th c. And for ever. And their heirs are still at work....
AI: In Charles Dickens's Bleak House, Mr. Bucket is a fictional character who serves as a detective, particularly known for his methodical and observant approach to solving crimes. He's often portrayed as a skilled investigator who patiently gathers clues and uses his abilities to uncover the truth. (he might well have had a wife Franz!)
"Raed Saleh, an extremely obnoxious Jordanian-German"
He is either a German with an odd name for a German man, or an Arab from Jordania, holding German citizenship and privileges.
Don't adopt the American delusion of calling people hyphen-nationality, it only works with Americans since they aren't a Volk, but citizens of a Republic consisting of many different ethnicities; the American delusion is a weapon used against European peoples and European-descended peoples/nationalities to deprive them of their uniqueness and their own character, turning being Greek or Italian or whatever into just some commodified set of surface-level geegaws rather than the Kultur the name of a nationality embodies.
West Bank residents were issued a special type of Jordanian passport until at least 1993 when the Palestinian Authority started issuing its own passports. Jordan (then called Transjordan) had annexed the "West Bank" in 1948.
Saleh himself apparently claims to be of "Arab" descent.
Woke Westerners would, of course, never dream of challenging the self-serving "identification" of any non-Westerner, but the fact is that speaking Arabic does not make one an Arab in the eyes of actual "Arabs" from the Arabian Peninsula.
Egyptians, Tunisians, Moroccans etc. speak versions of Arabic but do not regard themselves as "Arabs" in an ethnic sense, and generally do not look like peninsular Arabs.
Interesting question: would Europeans shy away from challenging a Greek's claim to be a Spaniard? What about a French-speaking Belgian claiming he is French?
Every day the AfD and other populist parties around Europe do a sterling service to expose the Establishment as nothing like the Machiavellian uberthinkers we are told to fear. They are inept inheritors of first world nations they have no idea how to maintain. This becomes obvious more and more each day. Long may it continue.
Still, it appears AfD has a hard ceiling that is less than 30% of the electorate. If the last five years haven't been enough for the German Michales to decide otherwise then they are beyond hope.
The 'AfD = Hitler / Evil / Nazi' meme is an example of an unfalsifiable belief. Its most enthusiastic adherents START with the belief, and then fill in the picture afterwards (or they just believe it anyway, in the complete absence of evidence or logic). The AfD MUST be evil, because they believe it to be. I've communicated with journalists who cite solely one poorly contextualized line from a political speech or a reference on a website, in support of their theses, and they almost become exasperated that people would demand EVIDENCE from them. Of course it's true, damnit! They believe it! They KNOW it... except they don't. They know very little (frankly, we all do).
The crazy thing is how MANY political ideas take this form these days. People will bob and weave and reframe and carefully use radically different standards for evaluating opponents / allies. It's all fervent belief in the absence of real understanding, reinforced by a massive dose of confirmation bias.
It is in fact pretty common. It was Jung who stated, thinking is hard, that's why most people judge.
Thinking IS hard, harder than complying with one's peers which often brings immediate rewards.
AfD's real sin is they make it difficult for the insufferable university graduate midwits to feel superior, partly because they have to resort to thinking and not casual judging. An unforgivable state of affairs for today's sophisticates.
Very similar to what happened during COVID. Lots of unfalsifiable beliefs that the German government (and many others) learned how to use during that time.
"...avoid 'giving voters the impression that the CDU is aiming to eliminate a rival party' – which is of course exactly what the CDU was hoping to do until the BfV fucked everything up with their retarded 1,108-page collection of dyspeptic Facebook-grade political takes."
Priceless. Best take I've read in a long time - bravo, eugyppius!
I haven't been a subscriber for too long, maybe a year, but I think this is the best article I've read of all time. Great humor and great analysis. Thank you, eugyppius.
I think the UK has managed, with Prime Minister Mr Starmer KC, to be the most stupid state of all.
This week Prime Minister Mr Starmer KC gave 12 years of fishing rights when the EU27 wanted 4 years, and joined the EU27 carbon credit trading scam with no voting rights at all. This adds tax to our already world-beating high energy cost. There is more but....
The same week the very same Libtard gave away our land to a random government (Mauritius) and propose to rent some of the land we gave away for 99 years at a cost of £30 billion, plus expenses, plus inflation. Oh, and we get to tell Mauritius about secret military things - Mauritius signed agreements with China and Russia.
Honestly, is there a more stupid political leadership in the world?
AfD may not be perfect, but the opposition to the present 'norm' is alive and Germany is ready for greatness - something the present political parties can not deliver.

It's almost as if Sir Queir, patron saint of Ukrainian rent boys, answers to a higher power than Parliament and His Majesty King Chuck. Remember the Stormer was one of the chief prosecutors who ensured that the vile Jimmy Sa got to skate on countless rape claims for decades.
I am not a physiognomist but Sir Queer Stormtruper's face defies both caricature and satire. Come to think of it, from Schmerz, to Pustula van der Lyen, to Kaja Callous to Manny Micron on to Trudeau, Dr Meat (Carney the Wanker-Banker) all the way to King Charles who is about to read the Riot Act to Canadians, they all look like that
I was thinking about Ernst Junger just before I got to his name in the succeeding paragraph. It really seems to be true that only people who've survived the most monstrous experiences of war with their minds uncrushed have any complete understanding of political realities and what nationhood means.
Next of course will be those who've survived a system like Communist East Germany with their integrity intact or wounded but still precious enough to them to be willing to vote according to their best judgment instead of being frightened away by the badnaming hurled by their adversaries.
I sure hope I live long enough with my brains intact to see what the world looks like a few decades from now.
oh gosh. the whole world is going mental. US and Germany and UK are really vying for the top spot. We never had this kind of divisive and derisive environment before Oblamer. He was the worst. Our country has turned into a bunch of angry mentally damaged people. It is annoying.
It does not matter what the discussion is about, there are people that will have a seizure because you believe something.
I have a very dear old friend, she is black. We knew each other when our kids were little and we never had problems disagreeing or diminishing or scolding.
I took the time last year to find her.. we had both moved from the neighborhood. It turns out, now she is a virulent Trump hater, She said he is a Nazi.
She also claimed that white people are free and black people have never been free - never!!
This discussion was all done by text. I told her that my parents lived in the Netherlands and endured a world war that was life altering and devastating. Recovery and going on with your life, no matter who you are, is a challenge and requires courage. We are the children of those survivors and we were sometimes reminded by the trauma. I have to admit, both of my parents endured a lot in WW2 but they really moved on quite well despite those traumatic years.
Now, Slavery is the white mans fault and USAs fault. There never were slaves until USA started having slaves (she believes this)
Also, now that US has taken in 45 refugees from Aouth Africa, Trump is a racist horrible monster.
I finally did have some snark, after long patience, and said that if there had not been slavery, SHE AND HER FAMILY WOULD NOT BE HERE Where would they be?
I do not understand the serious mental abuse these people inflict on themselves.
I am supposed to be ashamed. They feel the need to keep looking back and finding horrible people to blame for why they are living in such petty ridiculing, condemnation of past harms.
Wow. Sometimes it does not make sense.
I do not feel things are improving anywhere, there is still so much anger.
A lot of my friends who hate Trump were unhappy before he came along. They took out a lot of anger against Bush first, and then Trump. Or they tend to be unable to resolve on-going situations that keep them trapped, don't even try. It's not a question of whether they succeed or not. It's they don't even realize they need to try to get out. It's a type of "abuse" and they heap it on themselves. Just an observation.
"I guess this is because they are really, really stupid. I can’t think of any other reason." I'm asking me the same question often; the only answer I can come up with is that the parties will at some point pay the price (retaliation), but the party leaders of the day won't. For those holding office today it pays and will get them going over the next few years, enough to secure their pensions. For their successors – not so much, I think. Short term gains, long term losses.
I'm pretty unsophisticated, and it seems pretty obvious even to me that repression tactics will only increase the rise of populism, as the people start to notice and get more and more frustrated.
'the insults and the foul plays to grow, while the evil fascist Nazi Hitler party is the only glue holding the cartel parties together. A lot of potential energy has accumulated in this profoundly stupid system and I have no idea what will happen when it is released...'
There might be a clue in the way the U.S. Democratic Party is starting to fall apart after years of counting on "Because Trump" to cement their base.
To the humble citizen, the solution seems really simple: propose and implement policies that actually do some good for the people. Yet this never seems to occur to our governing elites.
