Great journalism, just what we need to expose the Nazi movements that are spreading in multiple venues around the world....and to motivate counter-movements.
Israel and Russia invade and seek to ethnically cleanse their neighbors. This is similar to US imperialism around the world, but currently it includes longstanding US neighbors like Canada. All 3 countries quack like a duck, so they are a duck- ethno nationalst states, like the Nazi’s.
Similar situation in Australia. Despite the Australian government being a little more even handed on the international stage, criticism of Israel is strongly discouraged internally. A journalist of Lebanese background was fired from the national broadcaster for retweeting a Human Rights Watch report on Gaza; the National Gallery of Australia is currently censoring Palestinian symbols in its artworks, a pianist had his concerts cancelled for expressing solidarity with the journalists of Gaza (although this was reversed), and an artist who was to represent Australia at the Venice Biennale has been sacked because apparently a work he did ten years ago featured an image of a Hezbollah leader.
Almost every day the media leads with some moral panic over anti-semitism, most of which consists of either graffiti or false reports (such as women being pelted with eggs, which turned out to be random). There have been more serious incidents, such as arson attacks on synagogues, but even then it's been reported that foreign actors are paying criminal groups in Australia to carry some of these attacks. Which foreign actors? Who knows. The most serious incident was a caravan found filled with explosives that apparently had a list of Jewish targets in it. But now the police are saying they are not treating this as a terrorist incident. So what is it? Who knows. There doesn't seem to be any urgency in the media to clarify these matters. These caveats haven't stopped both federal and state governments passing more hate speech laws, including mandatory sentences, and restricting the right to protest even further.
> In late 2024, the AfD became the first far-right party to win a state election in Germany since the Nazis.
This is BS propaganda. Alice Weidel is lesbian-married to a Sri Lankan. AfD is a moderate liberal center-right party, their platform is comparable to that of a typical pre-Trump US Republican.
Because they are the most right-wing party in Germany with significant influence, actual fascists and Nazis do sometimes gravitate to them—just like actual Marxist-Leninists sometimes gravitate to the Democrats in the US. But the party as a whole is no more fascist than the Democrats are Communist.
This isnt BS propaganda and the AFD is a fascist right wing party using hate speach all the time. This is something u can read all over german platforms. They dehumanize muslims, arabs , black and LGBTQ people over and over again.
Your term "proxy nationalism" says alot about how domestic fascist politics gets around still existing bourgeois democratic rights. Do yo think US is enjoying a proxy extreme right nationalism in Ukraine? In either case do you think fascism abroad is rehearsal for it at home?
The AfD seems to be supporting Israel (now) because it is doing what the Nazis do: Genocide.
They're in agreement on the methods to gain power, in the past and present.
Was the 'moustache' on Elon's image a complete coincidence, or judicious frame selection?

They do not aspire to keep their citizens
safe, but use us as cannon fodder.

> They dehumanize […] LGBTQ people
Again, AfD’s leader Alice Weidel is in a lesbian marriage. Most incompetent LGBTQ dehumanizers ever!
AfD, NAZIS, German love fest for Israel? AH OH ..
