      looks a lot worse if you compare it to 2019, and account for the fact “other” has a lot of far right parties such as the “SS aren’t war criminals” AFD.

        On that subject…

        Just in case anyone needed proof that Elmo (Elon) is a Nazi.

          Can you share some AfD policies for those who haven’t been following as closely? I know they’re anti-immigration, but that’s broad and vague.

            Anti-Islam, Anti-EU, Remove Welfare, Mass deportations (even for people with german passports it they haven’t “integrated” — code word for being white, straight, and able-bodied) Russian apologists, “Völkish Nationalism”, — you get the picture

                Ever wonder why mainstream social media feeds were filled with right wing content, and far right comments? Or why left-wing communities get hijacked by people saying you should not vote, or only vote for super far left pro-russia parties.

                Behold the “Russian Web Brigades” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_web_brigades

                To avert suspicions, the users sandwich political remarks between neutral articles on travelling, cooking and pets.[25] They overwhelm comment sections of media to render meaningful dialogue impossible.[39][40]

                This is why I left reddit. I would say 1 in 10 accounts is one of these. It is crazy.
