Putin’s fifth column strategy is effective. Horrible but effective

Putin has no fifth column strategy. All this Putler nonsense is Western propaganda. It’s projection. He’s not a great guy, but he’s also not leading a fascist movement. And anyway, Russia has negligible ability to influence the Western electorates, despite propaganda to the contrary.

It could definitely be a happy accident for Putin that European fascists support Russia and Russia them

It’s a mixed bag. Ukrainian fascists and NAFO neo-Nazis don’t support Russia.

Nah, European strategy of destroying its economy to spite Russia is effective. Horrible but effective.

Maybe both are horrible? The first was the topic of the article though but yeah we can add that

Although decoupling was a reasonable move. It’d be worse if they’d try to prolong it

At 28% they won the most votes for a party but as the other parties that one 72% of the votes don’t like them, they didn’t win the election. That’s democracy.

I’m sure similar words were said 92 years ago in Germany. Or, more similarly, last month in France.

That’s what they say, but here in Sweden the the rest of the right wing parties flipped and joined with the far right post election, the only ones surprised were the voters on that block. fucking idiots. But as a consequence, for the first time in history, the capital’s traditionally dominant local bourgeois voters has now finally flipped left - unfortunately the rest of the south are leaning in harder on the far right (as could be expected).

Yeah, but the People’s Party (ÖVP) which was kind of centrist (liberal economy, socially conservative) is moving more and more to the right side of the spectrum. They have been in the government for decades and are more organized and connected. In my eyes they are a greater danger to society than the right-wing FPÖ.

Together they have the majority, and I don’t trust the head of ÖVP (Nehammer) in his promise not to team up with Kickl (FPÖ head).
