    Now we need to do the AfD next, bevor we have the next Nazis on our hands. And their populist propaganda is seeping in steadily, fueled by massive and endless hate campaigns from the BILD boulevard piece.

    They are polling really really high in many states, top in some even, despite having absolutely no plans or desires to do any politics. All they can do is rage and yell about immigrants, current politicians, taxes, joblessness, the EU, laws, Ukraine, everything. And they also successfully did this thing where they are selling their idea that they are “for the people” and “the will of the people”, yet the elected politicians they do have have consistently (and I mean it, not a single exeption) voted in favor of taxing the working class and making it easier for the ultra-rich. Surprise, surprise.

      The same is happening in Sweden with the neo Nazi Sweden Democrats (disclaimer: they prefer being called “social conservatives” while simultaneously calling for the “deportation of asocial foreigners”). The only difference is, these ones have a plan, a really shitty one, and now by forming a bloc and becoming part of the government without any posts, they are effectively trying to apply each one of their weird proposals even though a number of them may require that they leave the EU. They think UK is doing a good job with immigration…

      Whenever any nation wants to leave the EU, I immediately suspect they are up to a human rights violation.

      Edit:typo

          Thanks for adding all these details.

          Bibbi Stockholm will likely not comply with fire hazard laws and other such “rights” that are suddenly trivial and luxury when it’s an asylum seeker. As we speak, a large number of teachers, nurses, doctors, and their many associations in different parts of Sweden are refusing to report the paperless and calling for civil disobedience (as far as I know this is still a proposal the government wants to implement). The government doesn’t seem to be responding to this issue or addressing it.

        Lol, the UK are doing worse with immigration than before Brexit.

        Some people really use any lies to make people support their outrageous claims like leaving the EU.

        I wouldn’t be surprised if Russia was helping behind the scenes with it, they want the EU to fail so they can conquer even more territories.

      If something is worth doing it’s worth doing yourself. Stop outsourcing your aggression to governments.

          It’s difficult to ban that kind of thing anyway. Ideas are hard to squash, especially ones born of a mix of ignorance and frustration.

            They dont convince people of their Ideas though. All they do is ragebait populism. Their actual Ideas are just shitty fiscal conservativism with some vaguely racist and homophobic social policy. They are not selling the product they are convincing people to buy.

        Eeeeeh… wow. Okay, and you jump straight to euthanize. I’m going to put you into the “part of the problem” box, I think.

            The issue is who decides what kind of behaviour deserves that kind of treatment.

            It inevitably ends up harming the wrong people in the end.

            I can understand the sentiment though.

        You should recognize that from their point of view what you said is pretty much what they think they’re saying. Squashing bad ideas isn’t worth turning yourself into a ghoul as well. Even people with bad ideas deserve love and compassion.

          In another thread I am getting a bunch of shit for saying that milquetoast libs keep defending Nazis and their free speech rights. I have been called a liar for that, but I am having trouble posting screenshots of posts like yours as proof
