Put plainly, Israel is aligning itself with an authoritarian wave sweeping Europe to legitimise its policies of genocidal warfare and democratic erosion, while Europe’s far right increasingly becomes normalised and mainstream.

Fascists like other Fascists?

Fascists support other fascists…

It’s why fascism anywhere is a problem for people everywhere.

They’ll always try to prop up like minded people, because if there’s only one fascist government everyone pays attention to them.

If there’s 5-6 all doing shit, it’s hard for everyone else to unify against it.

I wonder if there’s some kind of doctrine devised by the early modern Israeli government that basically amounts to the only way to not let Jewish people be at the bottom of the boot again is to be the boot, and the Israelis have just been quietly working to emulate the Nazis as per that doctrine ever since?

Or its the classic victim/abuser cycle but replicated on a nation scale.

Or just arseholes being arseholes.

Why not all three?

Why do we look at history? Why do we learn about the atrocities of the past committed for the benefit of the few? This such a bullshit headline for an article that basically cut-and-pasted news from the 1930s. I'm sick of journalism becoming one giant handjob of, "Check this out."

A part of me thinks the rise of extreme nationalism is fueled by climate change. We’re already seeing issues with access to clean drinking water around the world. Hell, in 2025, Mexico wasn’t able to honor their end of the water trade treaty with the US for the first time since the treaty was created in the 1940s, which helped the nazis in charge here justify refusing to send water to Mexico. www.ecoticias.com/en/…/12590/

It’s only going to get worse. Resources are drying up, and when countries face issues supplying clean water and food, they tend to gravitate towards barbarism and tribalism. In my opinion, this is just the tip of the iceberg, unfortunately.
