But 44% of the vote for a party that is officially classified as “extreme right” is not normal. It is a black day for European democracy, even if it occurs in a small east German state.
…
While Saxony-Anhalt (and Germany itself) may have dodged the worst outcome because the AfD won’t automatically fulfil its ambition of forming the first far-right state government in Germany since the Nazi era, there is no reason to assume it will be so lucky at the next election. Neither will other German states, such as Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in two weeks’ time, or other countries, such as France next year. No country is immune from the far right and, perhaps even more worryingly, no far-right party or politician is too extreme for political success (as the US has shown). We must therefore update our analyses and strategies.
edit link removed because it is “highly unreliable”
Gonna have to ask you to remove that wsws link and any info sourced from it since it is a highly biased and highly unreliable source.
This came to my attention because you reported a totally legit comment calling you out of the wsws link and you proceeded to use “low quality accusations” as a reason for the report. Don’t abuse reports hoping to silence people who criticize you.
What is problematic or biased about the quote I provided?
Why are you accusing me of abusing reports to silence people who criticize me? Saying I am “abuse reports” about a single report you don’t feel is valid doesn’t feel fair to me.
Sure I will remove the “highly unreliable source”.
I am accusing you of abusing the report system because your report was unreasonable and clearly had the intent to silence someone. This is not .ml where admins silence people over petty disagreements.
PS: The community ban wasn’t me.
