The #Liberals & their #PHON & #Nationals mates are blaming 'non-citizens' for nearly everything. We non-canines can hear the dog-whistling. We know what toxic #nationalism looks and smells like. With about 50 yrs of #Oil left, #electrification is essential. #AngusTaylor joins the #populist road to oblivion. They are simply scientifically and economical ignorant #Budget2026 #NetZero

@tazgetroete moderat? #Rechts und #Populist, sicher. Aber moderat?
/Edit: im übrigen nervt mich die Mär der #Grüne als #Verbotspartei. Schon mal die CSU speziellen und deren Schwesterpartei und die Nazis im Allgemeinen angeschaut?

#Orbán is running for his 5th-straight term as “prime minister”. He & his #nationalist #populist #Fidesz party are facing their toughest race in 2 decades against a center-right challenger, #Tisza party led by Péter #Magyar, that could bring an end to Orbán’s 16 years in #power.
Orbán has bristled at the slightest mention of the #election by any of his partners in the #EU, decrying any expressions of support for his opponent as a grave breach of #Hungary’s sovereignty & meddling in the election

Exclusive: Adam Hamawy, Saikat Chakrabarti Get Boost in House Bids with Justice Dems Endorsement
https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/justice-democrats-adam-hamawy-saikat-chakrabarti-endorsementfrom #DropSiteNews
Mar 30, 2026#JusticeDemocrats (JD) is endorsing two new candidates on Monday, throwing its weight behind #SaikatChakrabarty in San Francisco and #AdamHamawy in New Jersey. Both candidates, for their own reasons, threaten to have outsized importance if they make it to #Congress, and both are running in open seats vacating by a retiring Democrat.
Chakrabarti was himself a co-founder of JD and went on to be the first chief of staff to [AOC]. Chakrabarti was driven out of Washington by Speaker #NancyPelosi, who objected to his hard-charging approach, which had included helping to organize an occupation of #Pelosi’s office during freshman orientation.
[...] Chakrabarti is also unusual among #Democrats in presenting a full-spectrum #populist economic agenda...

#AmyRemeikis is a political analyst not a forcaster of political fortunes, but even Amy is safe to call it these days...
"The conservatives have destroyed themselves [...] , but they have been victorious in creating a Labor Party that governs in their memory. One of the reasons the Liberals have crashed over the past two elections is because Labor has filled the space they would usually claim, while the Liberals have run so far to the right that their main opponent is One Nation."
So in a few words: we now have a labor govt in 'liberal' clothing which is likley to remain so until it is ousted by... yes, by what exactly? Is the electorate ready for the Greens to assume a pivotal role in govt? I don't know. Nor do I know whether the electorate is mad enough, angry enough to go the #Populist route - gosh, I hope not. But all of the above is hypothetical of course, until it comes about that is.

Hoor je het ook eens van een ander: strenger #straffen helpt niet.
Elke politicus die #keihard aanpakken blèrt is een domme #populist.

I agree with the concern on slop, but #theVerge can’t resist sloppily politicizing everything. Somehow it labels nostalgic AI slop as “#neocon.” #Populist, sure, but not neocon. It’s almost antithetical to #NeoConservatism, which is why it is the populists who like sharing it. https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/825498/openai-sora-video-slop-nostalgia-mister-rogers

#Populist parties choose #divisive issues on purpose.
This #tactic may steer the public political discussion away from problem solving and instead create a debate about the very liberal democratic basis of society.

I see that in analogy to #religions which tend to focus on crazy beliefs as this holds their faithful flock together and facilitates distinction vs other creeds. See my feature https://proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2019/06/cooperation-and-conflict.html

#Trump, #Musk, #Putin, #Netanjahu, #Erdoğan, #Orban, #LePenn, and #Kickl are #populist #fascists. There, I said it publicly.
Many more western politicians have clear fascist, illiberal tendencies, including previous #FPÖVP chancellors and current governors (Austrian #federalism does not work any more and needs to be severely limited to get back to a functioning government).
[https://www.derstandard.at/story/3000000021253/was-kickl-als-volkskanzler-bedeuten-wuerde is a good summary of some reasonable criteria for spotting #fascism, and https://www.diepresse.com/19301692/haben-wir-es-den-faschisten-zu-leicht-gemacht gives more insight into the Austrian variant. https://www.aaup.org/news/professors-are-not-enemy-fascists-are%C2%A0 gives links to the current US government fight against academia.]
The result of this toot is probably that I _really_ shouldn't be traveling to the #US, #Israel, or #Turkey with their current governments. Luckily, I still dare write such statements publicly in Austria and the wider EU. If I really have to get into political trouble, then let it be because I denounce fascism and oppose the abuse of technology to build surveillance states driven by fear. I will not fight with violence, but I can and will fight it with words.

Co chtějí pravicoví populisté v EU?
Jejich hlavním cílem již není odchod, ale spíše reorganizace Unie zevnitř. Rozsah hrozby, kterou pro Evropu představují pravicoví populisté, závisí na chování středových stran.
Středové strany by měly vést věcnou debatu o potřebě evropsk
