Isn't it illegal crime in Europe or Germany at least? meanwhile there aare Germany far-right ads showing retard whites doing hiel salutes

Worse, we have Trump and Netyenyu planning, advocating, and executing ethnic cleansing, and Germany, the UK, and Eurpo send their billions in support of it. They've been nazis for long already

Combine this with German polls showing a drop in AfD support this month since Vance's meeting with them (https://www.politico.eu/europe-poll-of-polls/germany/), and you have actual European Nazis looking at the Trump administration and collectively saying "whoah, maybe dial it down a bit."

Funny enough, Trump's remarks about Canada are hurting their conservative party as well. I just hope it's enough, y'all better get out and vote this month!

yea Polliviere was trying to suck trumps knob despite trump wanting to enact tariffs on canada.

I’ve heard this several times… what specifically did Vance do that seemed to shake Afd support?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

I'm not actually convinced it was Vance specifically. Their support seemed to grow a bit after the US election gave their movement a bit more legitimacy, but then started back the other way when people saw what it means in action. Vance's visit was timed at roughly the peak, but, snark aside, it's probably more correlation than causation.

The actions of the Trump administration as a whole are a more plausible cause of any slight erosion of support.

What's happening in the American Reich is inspiring a very strong sense of European patriotism like I've never seen before among common people around me.

It's pretty ironic, yet makes sense, that European unity could be achieved this sad way.

He's also pretty unlikable.

with his many gaffes in june and july, with his fake" paraphelias with dolphins and couches", and then theres the issue of him wearing eyeliner, and crossdress and associating with THIEL, MSM is complicit in trying to bury the last parts, and then theres the issue he may not be entirely straight much like how MSM dont report on lindseys identity.

I hadn't seen that latest wave of polls.

I know Die Linke saw an uptick, but damn that's wonderful. If the ~~Nazi Party~~ AfD can get down under 15% in the next week and Die Linke could get up over 10%, that would be much appreciated, Germany.

in the next week

Elections are tomorrow, not next weekend.

Unless you're talking to an Afd voter , then they're next week ;)

They're not disagreeing, they're just worried that it's going too fast. Europe has been slowly going nazi but americans are a step further, and european politicians are worried that it will make people realize the fascisation of their societies.

And pretending to be against what's happening in the US is reassuring the enlightened centrists.

Is there a running list of US public figures who have publicly performed Nazi salutes?

nazi barbie did it first when she was at cpac/or a fox aware show(aka laura ingharam). in the 80s or 90s, she outed a person for being LGBTQ+ by recording them in secret and reporting it.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 13 hours ago

[–] [email protected] 8 points 13 hours ago
